I bought liquid smoke almost a year ago for a recipe and then couldn’t find the recipe. Me and my organization skills. This week however, I found another recipe calling for liquid smoke. And lo and behold, if it isn’t for my husband’s favorite meal. BBQ beef on buns!

Slow cooked turkey breast

I spotted the cutest little turkey in the freezer section at the grocery. Turns out, it’s just a turkey breast. Perfect idea for a small family dinner. I had no idea how to cook it so I bought chicken broth. Every other meat I’d ever cooked in the crock pot turned out tender if I cooked it in juice….so it was worth a try!

Meatloaf Try #2!
This time I changed the ingredients just a tad to see if it would taste better, worse, or the same– mostly by using grass-fed beef instead of buffalo.

I’d heard of this before, but it was one of those meals that sounded complicated and mysterious. I had no inkling of how to make it. What a surprise to find it only took a few minutes to throw this in the crock pot. (Mostly because I cheated and used pre-cubed meat.) The best part? I utilized a much cheaper cut of meat because it cooked all day. As I busied myself around the house, the smell wafted through each room. And the first words out of my man’s mouth when he arrived home? “That smells good.”

Now that I’ve tried Chicken BBQ and Beef BBQ in the crock pot, I thought I’d try Pork BBQ. Boy, am I ever glad I did!
Served with cooked onions and collard greens.
Shredded BBQ Beef

We usually eat the chicken barbecue because chicken is better for you, blah, blah, blah. But I ran across a few recipes for Barbecue Beef Sandwiches which got me to thinking. WELL. The chicken BBQ is really just a mock beef BBQ, isn’t it?
I decided to give it a try.
Maybe I was hungry, but when I finished my sandwich with sticky, BBQ fingers and juice splattered all over my plate I told Matt, “This might be the best thing I’ve ever eaten.”
He laughed, reaching for another one. It was a little sweeter—and messier than the chicken BBQ, but out of our three star system, we gave this one a four!
Southern cookin' at its best.

Remember in middle school when the lunch lady plopped a lump of “stuff” on your plate? Upon inspection, I could never decipher the ingredients… meat and maybe something else. To me, meat loaf conjured images of nasty school lunch. I never had any desire to try it.
Now that I’m grown, however, my taste buds are happier, healthier, more open-minded buds. And boy, was I wrong about meat loaf. My husband and I fought over the last piece.
Served with fresh corn on the cob!
