Rum Cake

1 box butter cake mix
2 sm pck instant vanilla pudding
1/2 cup oil
1/2 cup rum
1/2 cup water
4 eggs, beaten
1/2 cup nuts

Mix ingredients together; then add eggs. Mix 2 minutes. You will need to add milk to "soften" the mixture (about 1/2 cup). Mix additional 2 minutes or until mixture is "soft". Pour into greased and floured tube pan. Bake at 325 for about 1 hour.


Glaze:
1 stick butter
1 cup sugar
1/4 cup rum
1/4 cup water

Melt butter and add other ingredients. Pour over cake. Let stand for about 30 minutes, then take out of pan. I pour a little of the glaze after I take out of pan. Delicious cake; better the longer it sits.

Marinated Pork Tenderloin

1 package boneless pork tenderloins (there should be two in the pack)

3 Tablespoons Dale's Sauce
2 Tablespoons dry sherry
2 Tablespoons honey
1 Tablespoon peanut oil
1/2 teaspoon cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder (I use finely minced fresh garlic)
2 Tablespoons brown sugar

Rinse tenderloins under water and pat dry with paper towels. Whisk together
all marinade ingredients--pour over pork in a tupperware or heavy duty
ziplock bag--marinate at least 4 hours, but preferably overnight. grill
tenderloins over medium low heat for 30 minutes, flip after 15 minutes.

This is delicious with coleslaw and creamed corn, or a big salad--and the
next day it is great sliced thin for sandwiches--our favorite is with mayo,
lettuce, raspberry mustard and swiss cheese. This also freezes well after
grilling--keeps for up to 3 months. Enjoy!!!

Smoked Pork

10 pounds pork shoulder roast
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper
1 (18 ounce) bottle barbeque sauce

2 yellow onions, quartered
1/4 cup Worcestershire sauce
8 cloves garlic, halved
2 cups Burgundy wine
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1/8 teaspoon ground cayenne pepper

Thoroughly rub pork shoulder roast with black pepper, cayenne pepper and barbeque sauce. Place on a medium baking sheet. Chill uncovered in the refrigerator 8 hours, or overnight.

Preheat an outdoor smoker to a temperature of 225 degrees F (110 degrees C) to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).

Place onions, Worcestershire sauce, garlic, burgundy wine, black pepper and cayenne pepper in the water pan of the smoker. Cover with enough water to make approximately a gallon of liquid in the pan. Place pan in the smoker.

Center pork over water pan in the prepared smoker. Smoke 6 hours.

Notes: "Smoked pork is an all-time outdoor cooking favorite. Be sure to keep the smoker closed as much as possible, and use a few water-soaked hickory chips while smoking. Check every hour or so to be sure the temperature of the meat remains consistent, and to add more coals and water as necessary. The finished pork is great on sandwiches with your favorite barbeque sauce."

Hardee's Fried Chicken

Here's an oldie but a goodie...

Drive to Bama game from Bham.
Get off of I-20/59 at the US 11 exit. Take US 11 through the beautiful countryside.
Pull into the Hardee's resturant in Alberta City.
Go through the dirve through and order an eight-piece chicken and four biscuits for each tailgating participant.
Pull out of the parking lot onto US 11 and continue until it turns into University Blvd.
Find a suitable parking spot. Remove chicken and biscuits from box and eat.
(For best results, it is recommended that the chicken be consumed along with several cold beers)



We used to do that in days gone by when we were young and stupid and didn't care about cooking at the game. And I don't think this recipe is good anymore, as I think Hardee's stopped selling chicken. That's a shame too--their chicken was fantastic.

Use On Anything Rub/Marinade

Rub:
Season Salt
Onion Powder
Garlic Powder

Liquids:
Hot Sauce
Worchestershire Sauce

I use this for chicken and porck chops and steaks to give it awesome flavor and tenderness! Just rub with the powders then pour the sauces over it and you can variate on the temp you want it by using more or less hot sauce!

Also I make a killer cheddar cheese ball where all I do is add those 5 ingredients by sight to a pack of cream cheese and about 2 cup cheddar cheese!! The secret is the pecans you roll the cheese ball in roast them with a little season salt, definate crowd pleaser!

Hardee's in Alberta closed down several years ago.

This is from a true "Coon-..." family in the city formerly known as New Orleans. They are LSU fans but don't mind sharing when it comes to good food. It is best served hot, but could be made day before and heated up on the grill. (Be sure to cover with foil)

Bourgeois' Bread Pudding with Whisky sauce

Pudding
1 qt. whole milk
3 eggs
2 cups sugar
1 Tablespoon vanilla
½ Teaspoon Apple Pie Spice (combination of cinnamon, allspice and nutmeg)
1 cup raisins
1 Loaf “day old” French bread
1 stick margarine or butter

Tear French Bread into pieces about 1” x 1” square and place in a large mixing bowl. In a second bowl, beat 3 eggs. Add 2 cups sugar, vanilla, raisins, and Apple Pie Spice. Mix together until well. Add milk and mix together. Pour the wet mixture over the bread and stir until bread is coated. Cover the bowl and place in refrigerator overnight.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Cut 1 stick of margarine into pieces and melt in a 9” x 13” pan in the oven. Remove the pudding mixture from the refrigerator fold over 2 or 3 times so that bread is evenly coated. Once butter is melted, remove pan from the oven and pour pudding mixture into the pan. Sprinkle the top of the pudding with Apple Pie Spice to taste. Melt butter for sauce (see details below). Bake for 30 Minutes at 350 and then increase temp to 375 and cook an additional 30 minutes or until golden brown.


Whisky Sauce
1 stick margarine or butter
1 cup sugar
1 jigger whiskey
1egg


As soon as you place pudding in the oven, melt 1 stick of margarine in microwave. Allow the butter to cool while bread pudding is cooking. When pudding is almost ready, add sugar whiskey and 1 beaten egg to melted butter and mix thoroughly (make sure butter is cool so this doesn’t fry the egg). Remove bread pudding from oven and immediately pour sauce over pudding. Let pudding cool 5 minutes and serve.

Bacon Wrapped Chicken Bites..........

The best way to make this is to prepare these the night before & then cook on gameday. It is a bit time consuming but these are FANTASTIC! Definitely worth the work.

Ingredients:

Boneless skinless chicken breasts or strips
Olive oil
Bacon
Shredded cheese - I prefer pepper jack or cheddar
Jalapeno slices
Bacon - Thin-sliced works best
Salt
Pepper
Toothpicks


Preparation:

Go ahead & open everything & make a large pile of cheese, separate the bacon strips & dice up the jalapenos & put in a pile.
If you use chicken breasts, get them as thin as possible & cut strips about 1/2-3/4" wide.
On a large baking sheet pour enough olive oil to cover the pan & place the chicken on top. Make sure the chicken is drenched in EVOO so the cheese & other ingredients will stick. Salt/Pepper the chicken.
Next, put a little cheese & a few pieces of jalapenos on the chicken.
Once you do this, roll the chicken until it forms a spiral that looks similar to a car tire.
Take a piece of bacon & wrap it around the chicken so that the bacon covers the 2 "open" sides.
Stick a toothpick through to secure the bacon & place wraps in a container until next day. If you want, you can soak in EVOO until ready to cook.
Grill & serve with ranch or southwest ranch for dipping.

Note: You can add diced mushrooms, onion, other peppers and/or cheeses for different flavors/varieties.

mm, mm, GOOD!
