  1. Grape jelly is almost always in my rib/butt/wing etc. sauces! Try starting your next house-made sauce with a tablespoon of brand X grape jelly, a tablespoon of butter and a little horseradish, nuke for 20 seconds and blend it with a fork. Then move on to any other or your favorite ingredients after that.

    You can thank me later

  2. Um, using grape jelly and chili sauce on meatballs actually tastes pretty good.

    And those ‘Little Smokies’ sausages or links of summer sausage heated in apple butter are damned good. Really damned good.

    Ketchup on rice should get you shot. Now some soy sauce? Yum.

    Hot dogs in boxed mac-n-cheese? Bleh. Now some ham is good, just no ketchup.

  3. Right off, those fries need some mayonaise. Nah, I wouldn’t do rice with ketchup, all by itself. I guess it’d be a desperation meal, except the price of rice is going to be going up.

    Yeah, jelly on the meatballs? Isn’t that sorta like cooking with wine? Both come from grapes, eh? Can’t be any worse than cooking a ham with Coke in a crock pot – yes, that’s a thing.

    The squid weenie is funny, and probably tastes OK with shells, but it needs some sorta sauce.

  4. Dicks is OK, but I was never able to get over someone going out and grabbing a “big bag of dicks”.

    Pretty sure that’s the one up by that Key Arena

    • That Dick’s is on 45th St in Wallingford area of Seattle. Used to walk my dogs there for plain hamburgers for them and I’d have the cheeseburgers and a chocolate shake. Dick’s has started many a Seattle kid on a good life and career path since 1954. They are privately owned by a family that is often the target of the lefty woke mob types for some imagined infraction or offense or other. Good folks. Didn’t like the fries, though; kinda soggy.

  5. I prefer Longhorn Barbecue Sauce on rice. Any kind of rice.

    Most of that stuff looks pretty tasty, too!

  6. A tasty rice-based meal can be cooled wholly in the microwave oven: 1kg of brown rice (for taste) with 1.5 litres water, nuke for 25 mins. Also nuked, 500g to 1kg chopped onions plus 1kg mixed vege (of your choice) all in the nukelator, then mix with a generous glug of your favourite cooking oil to fool your hut into thinking it’s fried rice. If you substitute bacon grease for the oil, all the better, yum.
    Serve with salt and pepper to taste. If you’re alone, it keeps well in the fridge, as the oxygen is kept out by the oil, doesn’t need reheating at all, tastes yum. Of course, adding bacon bits helps with the flavour, but they must be fried.
    This keeps a poor bachelor fed at a low price per tasty meal, with only a microwave to cook in.

  7. Best friend growing up was Filipino, had some combination of spam or tuna, rice, and hot dogs (occasionally egg) on many occasions. Damned delicious…
