Sweet And Sour Jelly Meatballs Aka Jelly Meatballs

Total Time: 4 hrs 5 mins Preparation Time: 5 mins Cook Time: 4 hrs

Ingredients

• 1 (14 ounce) jar chili sauce (like heinz)
• 1 (15 ounce) can tomato sauce
• 1 (32 ounce) jar grape jelly
• 1 (7 ounce) can chopped mild green chilies ((4 ounce can can be used too, but i like 7))
• 3 tablespoons dried onion flakes
• 1 tablespoon garlic powder
• 1 teaspoon of your favorite curry powder, to taste
• 1/2 teaspoon dried ancho chile powder
• 1/4 teaspoon dried chipotle powder, to taste (optional)
• 2 lbs pre-cooked frozen meatballs (i prefer the ones from ikea)

Recipe

• 1 put all the ingredients but meatballs into the crockpot and mix well.
• 2 add the meatballs and stir to coat well.
• 3 put the crockpot on low and let cook for 4 hours on low (if you use thawed meatballs, it'll only take a couple of hours in the crockpot, instead).
• 4 serve, standing back so you don't get trampled by the rush of the crowd.
• 5 note: we've tried other preserves and jam than grape jelly, but the sauce simply didn't taste as good; we're sticking with plain, old grape jelly from now on and will be happy with it. also, you can use lil smokies or sliced smoked sausage instead of the meatballs - a lot of folks use the same sauce for either and both ways are tasty! :)
• 6 note 2: the above makes a lot of sauce, a good deal of which will be left over when the meatballs have been eaten. i've found that having a *lot* of sauce is of real benefit when making meatballs in the crockpot - the meat remains nice and moist.

Water Smoker Smoked Lamb Picnic Roast

Total Time: 8 hrs Preparation Time: 3 hrs Cook Time: 5 hrs

• 1/4 cup brown sugar
• 1 -1 1/4 ounce onion soup mix
• 1/8 cup fresh ground black pepper
• 1/8 cup chili powder
• 3 tablespoons salt
• 1/8 cup confectioners' sugar
• 2 tablespoons garlic powder
• 1 tablespoon dried ancho chile powder
• 1 tablespoon cumin
• 1 tablespoon ground coriander
• 1 tablespoon nutmeg
• 1 tablespoon turmeric
• 1 tablespoon curry powder
• 3 cups cider or 3 cups apple juice
• 2/3 cup seasoned rice wine vinegar or 2/3 cup other flavoured vinegar
• 1 cup water
• 4 tablespoons wine, and
• worcestershire sauce
• 2 tablespoons of your choice hot sauce
• 3 tablespoons salt

Recipe

• 1 take 10 lb. picnic roast and rinse well and pat dry.
• 2 mix wet marinade and allow to warm to room temp or sit out for a little while to gel the flavors.
• 3 remove fat/skin from roast and refrigerate.
• 4 in large lidded bowl, pour in marinade over roast.
• 5 due to low salt usage, marinade overnight or if you can't get to it, for several days - turning it as often as you can remember to do so. a little salt and some vinegar in the marinade will tenderize the meat a bit.
• 6 remove roast from fridge. allow to warm up a bit for 2 hours on the countertop. remove marinade and reserve. inject marinade into lamb at differing points. hit roast with rub and wait 20 minutes or so. lay reserved skin over roast and affix with toothpicks. preheat oven to 210.
• 7 cook in oven @ 210, in a dutch oven with 2 layers of wax paper or parchment paper to seal it up, the lid on top of that, until internal temp is 160 degrees. 3 hours or so. fire up some charcoal. remove skin from fridge. get ready to smoke --.
• 8 smoke at 195 - 220 until internal temp reaches 200 degrees - skin still laid over the top of the top of the roast - and use warmed, reserved marinade in the water bowl and top off with hot water if need be. hold that temp on the roast for 1 - 2 hours to assure tenderness. tenderness is a matter of preference, so you will have to guess on this the first time out.
• 9 i like to use a variety of woods for the smoke, and one weird thing that my wife and kids can't stand, but definitely imparts some unusual kick. over the course of the smoke, i throw four handfuls of dried hot peppers, whole, onto the fire! makes everyone cry but me, as the smoke billows out, but man does it add flavour for the bark.
• 10 rest for 20 minutes prior to slicing or what have you.
• 11 tip: chill roast down to 38 degrees and use a slicer if you want thin slices for sandwiches.
• 12 use bones, and skin, salt and pepper and whatever else to slow simmer to make lamb stock.

• 1 preheat the oven to 400 degrees.
• 2 cut squash in half lengthwise and deseed.
• 3 place the squash halves on a roasting rack and season with 1/4 teaspoon each of salt and pepper.
• 4 place 1 tablespoon of butter and 2 sage leaves in the hollowed-out core of each half.

• 9 when the butter has melted, add the walnuts.
• 10 toast the nuts and allow the butter to bubble, about 1 minute.
• 11 add the rest of the sage leaves.
• 12 when the leaves release their aroma and begin to crackle in the pan (about 1 minute), add the squash and stir to coat it with the flavored butter.
• 13 cook for 2 minutes over medium heat until the squash is warm, stirring frequently so the flavors get inside the squash.
• 14 season the rest of the salt and pepper.
• 15 serve on a large plate or platter, topped with the cheese.
