I find it interesting when folks like corn "meal"  bread but hate grits.  

Smoked ribs n sauages..
Mac n cheese too..

I like me corn bread a bit on the cakey side...

Damn!!! I like ribs & sausage and mac&cheese. Oh my!!!

Sunday night special, but no meat. Mushroom and onions. I had Italian sausage twice this week in breakfast egg bake, and sausage kale soup.

Sunday night: Marilyn cooked, I watched the Chiefs game. A slow cook pot roast, with a prime chuck I bought from a nearby ranch and meat market. I bought the chuck, opened the bottle of wine, stayed out of the way. The beef, pots and carrots and onion, garden herbs. Etc. so good! Brad

I like beer in the dough instead of water. When I don’t have time for a 3-5 day dough ferment, I’ll use beer for my liquid.
I have been making my own sauce forever blending a drained can of diced tomatoes, 1/2 a sm can tomato paste, 2 tsp. Sugar, 1/2 tsp salt, basil and oregano to taste.

I recently changed my recipe and it is simply one box of these crushed tomatoes, 1/2 tsp salt, tsp. sugar, and basil. No blending , just mix and done.
These are the best tomato products I’ve found and taste so much better than any others I’ve tried. And, you can get them at Walmart. Pictured below.

Dale, I've often wondered about using beer instead of water in bread.  I make pizza dough almost every Friday, I may well give it a try this week - I won't be drinking beer as I'm on call, so I may as well use it for something else constructive.

Al's birthday dinner: a locally raised chicken, roasted with mushroom and onion gravy, garlic mashed potatoes, and Asian style green beans. Cheesecake for later. The chicken is very good--much more dense than a grocery store bird, but not tough. Much harder to separate at the joints.
