I have as well and it works great. I actually buy holiday cake pans (Christmas Trees, Pumpkins etc) on sale after the holidays for next to nothing. People laugh when I pull out Santa in June.

Depending on what I'm doing I often use stoneware. It gives a nice even heat (not as hot as cast iron) in multiple shapes and sizes to maximize grill space.

This is a Stout and beer bread stuffing I did last fall.

I make something very similar but add jalapenos and it tastes like stuffed jalapenos wrapped in bacon without all the fuss.

WB, just try them. The recipe is near the front of the post. I made them twice last year. Mine did not Look as good as what were in the pics, at least the first time, my second batch looked good.. looks don't matter when you turn the lights out.... hold it, wrong topic.. what I meant to say was the looks of the eggs do not matter, they are delicious!:clapping::dance2::pepper:


Hint: get the smallest yet fullest peppers you can find, they are easier to work with and it wont look like a meatball banana when its finished

Grilled mussels with garlic and Guiness. I've made this a few times as an easy appetizer. It is based on one of the most popular starters at "The Brazen Head" in Dublin, Ireland. This pub is reputed as not only the oldest in Dublin, but also as one of the oldest pubs in all of Ireland...serving patrons for 800 years.

2 lbs fresh mussels
1 shallot, minced
3 garlic cloves, minced
1 1⁄2 tsp thyme
1⁄2 cup Guinness
1⁄2 cup half-and-half
2 tbs butter
2 tbs parsley

I can vouch that they serve a hell of a pint. Not sure I've ever ordered any food in there though.

Happy Game Day Fellow Vol Fans!:dance2:

I have been waiting all year on this day, thank you Lord for allowing us to have another chance to spend our weekends talking smack, poking fun, getting goosebumps, throwing stuff we probably should not throw, screaming at the television, and of course ....... preparing good food. I have been on Volnation for 8 years now (maybe I am the bad luck lol) this is my 1000th post. To me it is about "QUALITY" not "QUANTITY", so it has taken me some time to reach the mark. I just need to work on the quality a bit more lol. Let us hope for a Great Season for 119 and no injuries.

Go Vols!:pepper:

Today, I am keeping it simple. I have no plans to grill or smoke anything today, I am going to prepare Shrimp Cocktails early and for Game Time I am going to do the Pizza Rolls that were added here, they look simple but yummy. Now.. next week (huge game and I could not handle paying the prices for tickets to come back home) I already have a big plan and will be trying the "Q" Mac n Cheese Boca added here, along with some other goodies.

Happy Cooking and Drinking Volunteers!!:clapping::dance2::eek:k::rock::pepper:
