RE: Beefy Noodle Soup

I use McCormick Beef Base. You add water to make beef broth. I'm sure you can use enough bouillon cubes for 8 cups water or use beef broth. I just prefer beef base.

RE: wireless invisable fencing

I have been looking in to the wireless fence after reading this thread and have found a couple concerns for me anyway.
Some of the sites say ideal for flat yards with no more than a 20 degree slope, and for small to medium dogs. This could be a problem for us.
Are all wireless fences this way?

Grilled BBQ Chicken Wraps

Here is a recipe I received in an email from Kraft Foods. It is very good. It's moist and flavorful on the inside and crispy on the outside. This recipe can easily be prepared anyway you like. Here is what I did differently.
I marinated the chicken breasts for a couple hours in the refrigerator with the dressing, about 1/2 cup or so. I also use Sweet Baby Ray's Honey Chipotle Barbeque Sauce. I used to taste and did not measure.

Stuffed Pork Chops With A Creamy Pan Gravy

The secret to this recipe is browning the pork chops until the pork chops are nicely brown. This adds great flavor to the pork chops and the gravy. Watch your heat so the butter doesn't burn, if the butter browns some that is fine, just adds more flavor. I made this in my dutch oven but it can be made in the oven if you use a oven safe pan.
Enjoy! Debbie
Stuffed Pork Chops With A Creamy Pan Gravy
http://i87.photobucket.com/albums/k155/ol-blue/StuffedPorkChopswithaCreamyPanGravy.jpg height=334 width=446
4 PORK CHOPS; Thick Cut.
HAM; Sliced.
4 slice(s) SWISS CHEESE; Thick Sliced.
1 teaspoon(s) OLIVE OIL
1 1/2 tablespoon(s) BUTTER
SAGE LEAVES; Couple Pinches.
SALT; To Taste.
BLACK PEPPER; To Taste.
FLOUR
MILK
_____
Make a large pocket in the pork chop without cutting the pork chop completely in half.
Insert a slice of ham and swiss cheese into each pork chop, I try to wrap the ham around the cheese if the ham is not to thick.
Heat the butter and oil in a dutch oven or oven safe skillet over medium-high heat.
Add the pork chops and brown the pork chops well on both sides.
Season with salt and pepper to taste.
Place skillet in oven and bake at 350 degrees for 25 to 30 minutes or until pork chops are done; this will very depending on thickness of pork chops, try not to over bake.
Remove pork chops to a plate and cover with foil.
Make gravy if desired with drippings using some flour and milk.
Season gravy with a couple pinches of sage leaves and salt and pepper to taste.
Makes 4 Pork Chops.

RE: cheap cat toy

Oh yes...My cat will paw at ice in his water dish until he gets them all out. He will drink from a running faucet or stick his paw in the running water and then lick his paw while the water is running over his paw. In fact, I turn on water and he comes running. Our Dog loves ice cubes also, he sits there and waits for the cat to get the ice cubes out of the water dish and then he eats them.

Quick And Easy Grilled Green Beans

This is great for camping when you want to cook your entire meal outside on the grill and have no mess to clean up. If space is limited on your grill do the beans first, then seal the foil and keep the beans warm while preparing the rest of your meal.
Enjoy! Debbie

RE: Weed Killer info....

I have been using just plain white vinegar for years to kill weeds, no salt. Get the vinegar with the highest acidity for quicker results. I don't use liquid soap in mine, but soap does help break down the surface tension and help whatever you are spraying stick to the leaves better. A tablespoon or so is all you need when trying to spray something.
I also spray cheap dish soap on my lawn with some ammonia and water. The soap breaks down the surface tension and the ammonia is pure nitrogen and will green up the lawn almost over night. I do this every time after I fertilize my lawn.

RE: Use a dutch oven in a propane campfire?

You can use a regular DO on top of a propane stove, but if you want to bake a dessert or something like biscuits you will need coals on top to brown them on both the dutch oven or the Ultimate Dutch Oven.

Mix all ingredients together.
Form meat into 2 loaves on a large plate or jelly roll pan.
Cover meatloaf and refrigerate for at least 1 hour.
Place meatloaf on hot grill, and grill for about 15 minutes over low heat with lid down.
I try to keep the temperature around 325 degrees.
After about 15 minutes of cooking, flip over meatloaf with a spatula.
Top meatloaf with some more BBQ sauce and continue cooking meatloaf until done; about 15 minutes longer.
