Pot Roast

360 cookware

Although it is still in the 80's here in Florida, it is fall. We have been busy trying to get back to normal after surgeries and a hurricane, and a slow cooked meal is always a welcomed treat. It's even better the next day.

Begin with a 2 to 2 1/2 pound Chuck roast. In a stockpot, brown the meat on both sides.

Cover and bring to a low boil.  Turn the heat to low and simmer for about 4 to 6 hours. Meat should be fork tender. Plate and enjoy, or serve in a bowl with extra broth, the way I love it.

Butternut Squash Lasagna

The holidays are a difficult time if you are dieting. My wife saw a recipe for a low-carb lasagna in a magazine, and asked me to make it. I read it and thought, it just wasn't lasagna. I went through the pantry looking for ingredients that would create a healthy and delicious meal.
There are two ways to make the noodles. You can slice them by hand, or you can do it the way I do, with a vegetable sheet cutter on my KitchenAid mixer. Once you get the hang of using the sheeter, it's a breeze to slice long ribbons of vegetables that can be sliced to your desired length.



Ingredients:
8 to 12 sheets or slices of butternut squash
2 cups fresh spinach
1 can spaghetti sauce
1 can diced tomatoes
4 cups fat free mozzarella shredded cheese
1 pound ground turkey breast
1 teaspoon Italian seasoning
1 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 cup diced black olives
1 cup finely diced butternut squash
1 teaspoon olive oil
cooking spray

 Begin by cutting your "noodles". Next in a preheated pan, ad…

Quick Breakfast Egg and Bacon Biscuits

I belong to several cast iron groups. About once a month someone posts a picture of a small 3 inch Lodge pan and jokes about what can you cook in it.


This is one of the ways I use these great pans. Each pan will hold one extra large egg. I usually scramble them for convenience. Begin by preheating your pans in an oven set to 195 degrees. I do mine in a small toaster oven with a convection setting. While the pans are preheating, scramble the eggs. Carefully remove pans from oven and give them a quick shot of cooking spray. Divide eggs equally between the pans and return to the oven.



Allow the eggs to bake 10 to 12 minutes, until the centers are firm, and reach a safe temperature of 165 degrees. Remove from oven and allow to cool a few minutes. You should see the eggs start to pull away from the sides of the pan. Carefully remove them from the pans, they should pop right out.



Slice some prebaked biscuits, or English muffins, and add the eggs to the bottoms. We usually have a pack of m…

Smoked Full Brisket Flat

I smoke a lot of meat. Usually I do a brisket once or twice a month. Yesterday I couldn't find a nice packer, which is the whole brisket, but  I did find a beautiful flat which was nicely trimmed. Weighing just over nine pounds the price was equal to the fourteen pound packer that was mostly one giant fat cap.
Since the flat is much leaner, I started by injecting the meat with a mixture of no salt added beef broth and about 1/2 teaspoon of the rub. This will keep the brisket nice and moist through the 10 to 12 hour cooking process.

Ingredients for the rub:
1 teaspoon coarse salt
2 teaspoon ground pepper
1 teaspoon granulated garlic
1 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon chili pepper


Add a circle of charcoal around the bottom of your smoker. Add several chunks of oak which has been soaked over night. Light on end of the circle and allow about one half hour for the fire to start. If done properly, you can smoke all day with charcoal ring and only have about one third to one half of t…
