So I think it’s safe to say that we’re just a little sick of beef around here. We’ve eaten so many cheese steak sandwiches lately that I feel like I’m going to start moo-ing uncontrollably any second now. And poor Dan, who is forced to eat everything I cook while I sit and stare at him with big…read more »

I don’t know what’s going on, but I’ve been having the most terrible allergies and allergy-induced asthma lately. I mean, I sneeze and wheeze all season every season, but things have been a lot worse this week. On Monday I was a zombie at work because the night before my allergies kept me awake (and struggling to take a…read more »
Philly Cheese Steak, Part II
When I posted my first Philly Cheese Steak recipe on reddit.com, I knew I’d get a hailstorm of protests from cheese steak purists and Philly natives. Where’s the cheese? The meat isn’t chopped right! Why did you put peppers in there?? You’re doing it all wrong!!! Calm down, guys. I know. It’s cool. I’ll make…read more »
Philly Cheese Steak
Well guys, there is still a whole bunch of prime rib in my fridge. Like…a really scary amount. Two people cannot reasonably be expected to eat that much meat. But they can try! So, in a valiant effort to put a solid dent into our leftover roast, I chopped up a few slices and sauteed the pieces…read more »
Roasted Prime Rib Sandwich
Today marks Day 1 of my attempt to eat all the leftovers from a 7lb prime rib roast before it goes bad, and/or we get sick of beef. I don’t know how long our enthusiasm for this endeavor is going to last. 7lbs is a lot of meat. But, while my love for juicy prime rib remains un-dampened…read more »
Rosemary & Thyme Crusted Prime Rib Roast
The last time I ate prime rib was at Christmas, when we were visiting Dan’s family. It was amazingly delicious, and I’ve been wanting to reproduce it in my kitchen since then. But, prime rib roasts are huge and it’s just me and Dan in the house most days, so I haven’t really been too…read more »
Crock Pot Chili
Hello, all! Hope your Thanksgiving was as fun-, food-, and family-filled as ours. Well, maybe not quite as much “fun” — I certainly hope nobody else was stuck at the airport for 9 hours on Turkey Day. But that’s a story for another day. Today I want to talk to you guys about Crock Pot Chili…read more »
Perfectly Mouthwatering Pot Roast
So apparently The Pioneer Woman has upped the ante on being awesome and landed herself a show on the Food Network. And yes, she is just as adorably quirky on TV as she is on her blog, her cowboy husband is a hunk, and her kids are frickin’ angels. I want to be her when I grow…read more »
Dan in the Kitchen — Ranch Burgers
Yesterday, I made a batch of brioche buns with hamburgers in mind. But, they turned out to be small and biscuit-like, so I decided to eat them for breakfast instead, maybe slathered with a little jam or cherry butter. Problem is, there are a lot of buns, and I don’t actually eat breakfast much. Dan doesn’t…read more »
Meatball Sub
Looks like Hurricane Irene is the new Snowpocalypse — everything is closed, traffic has ground to a halt, and everyone is holed up in their homes. The only difference, I guess, is that we’re actually prepared to battle the forces of nature this time around. Maybe a little too prepared. BJ’s was a mad house…read more »
