Re: [CnD] Coconut oil
If it doesn't smell rancid, I say it's still good. I did a quick Google search & here is what I found: It might be *one year*, two years or even *four years*, it depends. Because of that, you can safely assume that every coconut oil lasts at least a year, but a few years is the most common scenario. Here's a rule of thumb: as long as you can't notice your coconut oil is bad, it's fine. Remember, it can be used for more than just cooking.

Re: [CnD] Food ideas
There are tons of things you can make. Most of the ingredients you listed can easily be left out of any recipe you make without much,if any, notice. My sister is allergic to onions so when I cook for her I will leave out any onions the recipe calls for. My husband doesn't like cheese of any kind. That was odd to me when I first met him because I came from a family where we put cheese on almost everything. Once I was married, I stopped putting cheese on things & have gotten to the point that I don't care for cheese all that much. Look thru some recipes & be creative. Good luck! -- Courtney ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark
Re: [CnD] chicken thoughts
I was always afraid I wasn't cooking our meat long enough so I would always cook it just a little bit more making the meat tough & dry. I invested in a $30 talking cooking thermometer & I don't regret it one bit. If you can, I recommend folks invest in one of these wonderful kitchen tools. If you are unsure about what internal temp to cook which meats, just do a quick Google search before cooking to find out. -- Courtney ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

[CnD] Moink Balls was Football Food
Moink Balls Recipe by Malcom Reed www.howtobbqright.com 1 package meatballs, thawed 1 package bacon Tooth picks Bar-B-Que rub 18 oz. Bar-B-Que sauce 1/2 cup Apple jelly Directions Cut bacon in half. Wrap bacon halves around meatballs & secure with a toothpick. Season bacon wrapped meatballs with bar-b-que rub. Get your smoker or grill set at 275 degrees and place these bacon-wrapped meatballs on the cooker. Because the meatballs are already cooked, you aren’t worried about the internal temp – but you want to cook until the bacon has a great, mahogany color. This typically takes 1 – 1.5 hours. I suggest to start checking on your Moink Balls at the 45 min mark and keep an eye on them until they have the color you want. Mix bar-b-que sauce & jelly to make a glaze. Dip each Moink Ball in the glaze and place it back on your cooker for 10 – 15 minutes to allow that sauce to set. Once your glaze has set, all that’s left to do is serve and eat. Notes: 1. I'm not sure of the sized bag of meatballs I get. It's just the only size my store carries. 2. The bacon package is about 12-16 oz. when bacon is laying with the strip running length wise (left to right), cut the slab in half 3. For the bar-b-que rub, I use a brand called "Butt Rub" 4. Use your favorite bar-b-que sauce. ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

[CnD] Beefy Macaroni Casserole
Beefy Macaroni Casserole INGREDIENTS 4 tablespoons unsalted butter (1/2 stick) 2 medium red bell peppers, cored, seeded, and cut into medium dice 1 medium yellow onion, medium dice 2 medium garlic cloves, finely chopped 1 tablespoon kosher salt, plus more as needed 1 teaspoon dried oregano 1 teaspoon paprika 3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed 2 tablespoons tomato pasteo 1 pound lean ground beef 1 pound elbow macaroni 1/4 cup all-purpose flour 2 cups whole milk 1 (15-ounce) can crushed tomatoes (with juices) 1 cup low-sodium chicken broth or stock 3 cups shredded sharp cheddar cheese (about 8 ounces) INSTRUCTIONS Bring a large pot of heavily salted water to a boil over high heat. Heat the oven to 400°F and arrange a rack in the middle. Meanwhile, melt the butter over medium heat in a large saucepan or Dutch oven. Add the bell peppers, onion, garlic, measured salt, oregano, paprika, and measured pepper and cook, stirring occasionally, until the vegetables are softened but not browned, about 7 to 10 minutes. Add the tomato paste, stir to combine, and cook until the raw flavor has cooked out, about 1 minute. Add the ground beef, season with salt and pepper, and cook, breaking the meat into smaller pieces with a wooden spoon, until it’s just cooked through and no longer pink, about 5 minutes. Meanwhile, add the pasta to the boiling pot of water and cook until still chewy and underdone, usually 1 or 2 minutes less than the package directions suggest (the pasta will finish cooking in the oven). Drain and rinse with cold water until no longer steaming; set aside. Add the flour to the beef mixture and cook, stirring occasionally, until the raw taste has cooked out of the flour, about 2 minutes. Add the milk, tomatoes and their juices, and broth or stock, stir to combine, and bring to a simmer. Add the cooked pasta and 1 1/2 cups of the cheese and stir to combine. Continue cooking, stirring occasionally, until the pasta is heated through and steaming, about 1 minute. Taste and season with salt and pepper as needed. Transfer to a 5-quart baking dish, sprinkle with the remaining 1 1/2 cups of cheese, and bake until bubbling and lightly browned on top, about 25 to 30 minutes. Transfer to a wire rack and let cool for 5 minutes before serving. ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

Re: [CnD] my very! hot! crock pot chili
With my experience grilling burgers on an indoor grill, it takes about 7-8 minutes for the meat to get done. That is a starting point. You can also boil ground beef. I put my meat in a large pot, crumble it with my hands, put enough water in the pot to cover the meat plus another inch of water, season with your favorite seasonings, turn heat to high until the water boils, turn heat to medium/high & boil for 30 minutes. When done, drain & then stir meat into your dish. Finally, you can cook it in the crockpot if time allows. Place crumbled raw meat in crockpot, season with your favorite seasonings, add about 1 cup of water (amount depends on amount of meat you are cooking, use your own judgement), turn crockpot on high, cook for 3 hours, stirring occasionally, when done, drain & then stir into your dish. All three methods are less greasy than frying. Courtney ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

[CnD] Crispy Oven-fried Chicken Tenders
I have made some amazing oven-fried chicken tenders. I don't measure most of the ingredients, so I'm just guessing here. 1 package boneless, skinless chicken tenders About 1 cup SR flour, seasoned with my family's seasoning blend 1 egg beaten, about 1/2 cup milk (regular or buttermilk). This depends on what I have in the fridge. About 1-1/2 cup seasoned Panko, seasoned (see note on flour) Butter flavored cooking spray Directions: Dredge tenders in flour, egg or milk then Panko. Place on rack in roasting pan. Spray tops with cooking spray. Bake at 350 until done, about 30 minutes. Cooking times vary depending on size & thickness of tenders & your oven. I suggest using a talking meat thermometer & cook until thickest part of tender is 165 F internally. I plan to cook these soon & using a baking stone & flipping the tenders half way through. These tenders come out super crispy & delicious. Courtney ___ Cookinginthedark mailing list Cookinginthedark@acbradio.org http://acbradio.org/mailman/listinfo/cookinginthedark

I will agree to a certain degree. Some of the recent recipe posts have sounded good & I have saved a few. Please remember there are different cooking methods & tools to use in cooking. In stead of deep frying, try oven frying. Want to know if your chicken is done & can't see the clear juices? Invest in a $30 cooking thermometer.
