well the nfl starts the playoffs today.. and i know it is sad to see football season comming to an end. but there is still time to cook something really good to eat.

i know i have been mia alot lately. and will be today mostly also.. but i still wanted to shaer a recepie that i have done several times with alot of success..

Chili, Cornbread, Pie

When I got home last night there was nothing in the fridge but some suspect hot dogs and wilted carrots.... and after searching through the kitchen for a while, things weren't looking too promising for dinner.Opening the freezer, there it was ..... a quart of chili made a couple months back... and looking through the cupboards, there was fixins for cornbread. I like cornbread with chili and having remembered seeing a recipe for combining the two, I thought I'd wing it.


1/2 chopped onion
~ 1 14 oz. can creamed corn
about 1/2 cup of milk
1 cup grated sharp cheddar cheese
dollop of mayo (no eggs and couldn't think what else to use)
about 1.5 cups of yellow cornmeal
3 tsp baking powder



1 Fill the bottom of a 12" cast iron skillet with about a quart of chili.
2 Mix well. Try to keep the mixture from getting too thick or too thin..... it should just pour out of the bowl.
3 Evenly pour over the chili and bake until brown on top.
4 Have a moment of silence for the greens, crack a PBR and eat.

    I love warm cornbread and also a sweet corn cake called Johnnycake. In fact I should make some and post a pic.
    Your creative additions to the corn bread seem to make it a one pot dinner. :lol: Have fun making it!

    For lunch having leftover burgundy pepper sirloin roast sliced thin cold and served with chips, dip, cheese and sliced carrots and celery. Christmas cookies and tea for dessert, of course. Libations later on, bar opens at 5. ;)

    I don't remember getting any of that at Kim's. Now I know why I didn't give you any Carnivore BBQ Sauce that day!! :whistle:
  • Left over day here - Blackeyed peas and cabbage.

    Thinking about stuffing some chicken wings tomorrow.

    The end of the football season was a mercy killing for the Chiefs.
    **** Clark was brutal to watch, his speech was just horrible.

    if you want to try something diffrent then try deboning some thighs and stuffing them with celery and blue cheese... i boiled the celery to soften them up but they were very good i dipped them in franks wing sauce and had a wing dinner all in one

    DSCN0245.jpg

    i need to try them again i will need to boil the celery a little longer to get it to soften up more than my original try ;)

  • Started it off as a recipe for Chocolate bourbon pecan pie, decided to mess with the recipe today and use Almond extract and rum to change the flavor of the pie. Was great will do that one again.
