Want a perfectly moist roast turkey recipe for your Thanksgiving dinner? The secret is an easy turkey brine that tenderizes the meat and keeps it juicy — EVERY TIME. Brine the turkey the day before cooking so the bird has time to absorb the flavors before it goes into the oven. This Bourbon Maple Brined Roast Turkey is a winner every time. No sweat.
What’s the best tailgate food? For me, it’s not the usual suspects. I say, “zig” when the others “zag” with freshly barbecued seafood. These Cedar Plank Salmon Sliders grilled with Kingsford® Original Charcoal are a great game-day or tailgating alternative to the standard and they’re much healthier than most cookout fare. This cedar plank salmon recipe has a spicy BBQ sauce and quick pickled onions and cucumbers for a fresh, delicious and satisfying bite!
If you love warm, fruity cobblers, crisps and crumbles, this Fresh Cranberry Pear Crisp with Herbs is sweet, tangy and luscious. This pear dessert is easy to make and is ready in about an hour. When you’re craving fall flavors, these baked pears with tart, zingy cranberries topped with brown sugar, spices and old-fashioned oats makes this pear crumble a winner every time. Delish with a scoop of vanilla.
This Dutch Oven Pot Roast is the ultimate one pot meal and your whole family is going to LOVE it. With a simple 4-ingredient pot roast seasoning and an Ah-Mazing Porcini Sauce made with dried porcini mushrooms for deep umami flavors and depth, this Yankee Pot Roast is heads and tails over the rest. So, if you want to know how to cook pot roast in the oven, stick around. FYI – You can also use your slow cooker or Instant Pot (directions included).
Looking for a good pumpkin muffin recipe? These Pumpkin Chocolate Chip Muffins are seasonally spiced and speckled with mini chips for easy pumpkin muffins that your whole crew will devour. Pumpkin mini muffins are best served warm from the oven with coffee, tea or hot cocoa, and that orange and black hue makes them perfect Halloween muffins.
