With just the two of us, we skip the fixing at home deal and go out.
Yesterday we went to Pucketts and each had a half slab of Memphis dry rub ribs. I had collards and baked beans, she had baked beans and tater salad as the sides. We both like Memphis dry rubbed ribs. Not as messy. If you want some sauce, add a thin line on the edge.

OK this is my wife's mother's old HELEN'S HOMEMADE BARBECUE SAUCE we've always liked it. Remember its a good idea to double the quantities to make a little more.
NOTE: one typed page is just the ingredients page the second hand written page are my wife's instructions. Oh and you get a bonus HELEN'S SPAGHETTI SAUCE.
So here it is, and any questions or comments just let me know.
Bon Appétit !

I hope that you enjoy it. Oh a little background information on our family and cooking, my grandmother was the best cook I've ever known and worked as a cook on and off her whole life. My mother used to cook for her 5 boys, dad, her, my grandfather, 8 of us "army style " big meals on a budget.
My wife Nancy I can honestly say is now besides cooking with her mother is now a "scratch" cook. I'm a good cook she's much better. We both enjoy watching cooking shows -but- she watches even more than I do.
And Helen, her mother a full blooded Ukrainian, she just passed away in 2019 at 95 and would have lived to be 100+ if she didn't slip and fall and broke her hip. An amazing lady and cook, she used to make I'm not kidding full blown Christmas and Easter meals for us until she was 93 +/-. Ham, kielbasa, Helen's incredible breaded baked chicken (ummm-mmm), scalloped potatoes, mashed potatoes, * her deviled eggs, * homemade Paska bread, vegetables, dessert and then some.....all by herself. OMG.
Well my wife now a retired nurse just told me that her mother used to make Helen's Spaghetti Sauce when she was a kid, that simple but good recipe may have come from her grandmother or earlier.
SO food is meant to be enjoyed and shared, that's why I started this favorite GAMEDAY foods forum on another board about 17+ years ago and continued it here. I also have a private friends and family recipe email that we enjoy.
And Bon Appétit..... exclamation used as a salutation to a person about to eat. Or good appetite : enjoy your meal.

I grew up on real deal Italian food... It is a SIN to add sugar to the sauce... Use more Onions... Same effect without all of the gas Sugar can give you...

That is one point that I've heard before, one person's secret ingredient is another's never go there.
It's why cooking is such a subjective thing so whether it's manga or whatever enjoy cooking !
And don't be afraid to try new things.

I just clicked around BEST EVER Homemade Italian Spaghetti Sauce, most are basically like this :
( *from a typical recipe...This homemade spaghetti sauce recipe was passed down from my Sicilian grandma. It has been used for generations, and you can’t mess it up! It is really easy and tastes SO much better than the store-bought sauce. I love that you can make this in a crock-pot, too (my favorite crockpot is this one!); no need to spend hours babysitting the stove making sure it doesn’t burn.... )
Ingredients....* NOTE: this is basically how you make homemade spaghetti sauce. * Great for a GAMEDAY side dish, a get-together or a family meal. Oh I'm often rereading and tweaking recipes or posts.
- 2 TSBP olive oil
- 1/2 onion finely chopped
- 4 cloves of garlic minced
- 3 28 oz. cans of Crushed Tomatoes either regular or with basil, oregano and garlic 28 oz. sized cans OR 12-15 fresh tomatoes (peeled, chopped and blended in a food processor)
- 1 Tbsp Salt
- 4 Tbsp Basil
- 1 tsp Black pepper
- 1 Tbsp Sugar optional <--- note the optional ingredient, my mother-in-law 3 TBSP
- 1/3 cup Grated Parmesan or Romano Cheese

Slavic cuisine often does not get the appreciation it deserves. My friends from Poland and travelling there opened my eyes. Bigos stew has become a favorite of mine.

That's true a lot has to do with the location, climate and politics of the day. ...... "You eat what you can grow " has a lot to do with it. My mother-in-law is 100% Ukrainian my father-in-law is 100% Hungarian, wow what a mix. My dad is 100% Ukrainian my mother is where it splits out she's Irish, English a touch of Dutch and a different cooking style.
Slavic cusine is heavily influenced by potatoes, sausages, spices and more. It doesn't lack in variety. Meat dishes, spicy spreads, pastries, rich soups. Many of these dishes have a long history behind them, being part of regional traditions, others were borrowed from other countries and have cemented their place in Slavic cuisine. I've even noticed that within the Slavic churches and restaurants I've seen.
You can see that in other cuisines even the very popular Italian cooking. It varies from Southern to Northern Italy again..... "You eat what you can grow" plus Italian food has been influenced over the centuries by trade from everywhere.
Slavic cooking, want a start try the church cookbooks and the bubbas old recipes ! We started collecting cookbooks when we got married in 1981, got a nice start there. In 1984 from June - October I was an outside electrical salesman covering 8 counties in WPA/OH well I stopped by every church festival and got a lot of "pure gold" grandma's recipes in church cookbooks for sale. All for a few bucks or yard sale prices.
Plus when friends would come over to eat they'd bring what else cookbooks for our collection. We had to politely say STOP !
Our collection now has grown to 100++ books in every genre you can imagine but the casseroles and grannies are among our favorites. All at budget prices, just check Amazon used books.

on a basic note - I made 24 pints of vidalia onion relish two weeks ago. It was perfect - outstanding for sandwiches and hot dogs.
The first night, I was up til 3 AM dicing onions. Need a faster dicer than my little walnut chopper. lol
24 large vidalia onions, 2 medium size cabbages, 16 large bell peppers - I don't like the green ones, so only used red/orange and yellow.... and plenty of spices - turmeric, celery seed, sugar......etc. Outstanding on hotdogs. Only two pints didn't seal, but they didn't last long in the fridge - our friends like family from NC were staying with us, .... vidalia onion relish from a store isn't as good at all. The key is, to peel the peppers while they are crisp. The relish is way sweeter.

Yesterday we went to Pucketts and each had a half slab of Memphis dry rub ribs. I had collards and baked beans, she had baked beans and tater salad as the sides. We both like Memphis dry rubbed ribs. Not as messy. If you want some sauce, add a thin line on the edge.
Down here there's always a roll of paper towels on the table and butcher paper underneath so you can eat sloppy ole BBQ ribs with lotsa sauce all over 'em.? And if you don't grab a little hand cleaner packet or 4 on your way out, then ya just didn't eat 'em right.?

Cool. I don't do sloppy. If a burger looks too big I use a knife and fork.
