Can’t go wrong with salt pork.

I’ve had with Bourbon, whipped cream and garnished with nuts....a dash of sherry is good too...

Born in NE PA, I love this hot soup cooked in a pot over a wood fire, served in Styrofoam cups during fall festivals, Good stuff!

My mom says to “boil the farts out of the beans”. To do this, you need to boil the beans for about 10 minutes, dump/replace the water and then cook normally with the additional ingredients.

[codder too]

Add a little baking soda to the pot
Helps solve the problem.

"Why Yankee Bean, huh? Don't they have beans in the south? I mean if you order Yankee Bean in the south, are they offended?"

Yankee bean, yankee bean, how I like my yankee bean.... - link.....

There was a young girl, a race carter
Who was widely renowned as a farter.
..Her deafening reports
..At Indy race sports
Made her much in demand as a starter.

Thank you too. I actually have some white beans in the freezer that I was wondering what to do with! Perfect timing. (I Cook about a pound of beans at a time, and then freeze them to use later. Much more convenient)

That’s kinda funny....because I brought over leftovers for the brother and sis-in-law and nephews, along with the bone for the dog.

The living room was substantially fragrant all day, but we all blamed it on the dog.

So someone give me a good recipe for beef rump roast. Cooking for my 97 year old grandmother. She loves potatoes and fresh tomato. And macaroni and cheese, but that might not apply.

[Little Bill]

One rump roast, season with garlic and onion. Heat oven to 400 degrees, cook for 30 min, lower temp to 300 degrees cook until done. Cream gravy thickened with sour cream.

Serve with baked potato, butter and sour cream. Mashed squash with butter and Brown sugar. Start with a Tomato salad with ranch or blue cheese dressing.

Split pea soup.

One ham bone left over from dinner. All of the boiled carrots left over from dinner. All of the potatoes left over from dinner. One pound of green split peas. One onion.

Put in big pot with water to cover, bring to a boil. Lower heat and cook until it thickens and all the meat has fallen off the bone, remove bone. Mush up all of the vegies, serve with bread and butter. (I use an immersion blender.)

Yep, went with tomatoes and zucchini diced and steamed for the salad...roast turned out okay.

Put some slits in the beef and jammed little bits of garlic inside. Carrots and taters in with the roast. Lots of garlic and onion salt, fresh ground pepper.

Seared it, 3 hours or so at 275 then finished it off at 350 until the veggies were done. Total time in the pot was around 4 hours for a 2 pound roast. Didn’t want to rush it and produce leather.

She says she’s too full to move, so it might have hit the spot. :)

Only thing missed was the gravy, there was little beef stock so the pan was pretty watery.

During dinner she recounted other great meals she had when she lived on a farm in Iowa. Kinda think I nailed it.

When I was in High School in antediluvian times I worked as a Bus Boy in a high scale restaurant. One of the Chefs told me when cooking a roast high temp first and then lower the temp. Sears the meat and allows the juices to flow.
