Ravens vs Browns







For the Ravens/Browns game we opt for your not-so-typical tailgate munchies. Balsamic Marinated Double Dipped Fried Chicken (whew, say that 3 times real fast). This was a new twist for and old favorite I found and add a new dimension to your basic fried chicken. We saw somewhere on TV Fried Brussels Sprouts, so as long as we had the oil hot and Sprouts in the fridge we decided to try them out as well. Worked out marvelously, just put the sprouts in very hot oil until crispy, drained them well tossed in some grape tomatoes and a balsamic vinaigrette, even the Sprout haters ate them! A luscious Macaroni salad finished off a well played game.

Paprikash


One of Dave's favs...Paprikash. Chicken thighs seasoned with lots of sweet paprika then seared, mixed with lots of chopped onions and tomatoes and more paprika. Simmered for about a half hour, spilled over tagliatelle. What a delicious and hearty dinner, served with hare coverts.
