    OMG, on July 4th a friend was over we were discussing favorite must have foundation cookbooks for starting or just having a basic collection. 

    The blue NYT COOKBOOK came up, I checked we have the blue first edition published in 1961 by Craig Claiborne (1920-2000),  718 pages sitting next to our microwave on our kitchen counter!

    One of the few two or three we have actually sitting out for everyday quick use the rest are on bookshelves. 

    It is a compilation of about 1,500 NYT recipes from 1950-1960. OUR EVERYDAY GO TO BOOK. I PAID $1 FOR IT ABOUT 20 YEARS AGO. 

    The latest edition by an older Craig Claiborne is 1990, hardcover 800 pages,  from what I can see. Wow. Might actually have to get it, lol, I must be sick. 😆

  • No game today just left over wieners

  • Some ingredients are hard to find though.  My wife is an executive chef and she looks in the old blue book.

  • My new "instant" sloppy joe for this football season:

    1 lb of hamburger, well browned. take grease out.

    1 can of Manwich Bold

    several blurbs of Hunt's catsup.

    It's great.

        and, the age-old recipe -

    2 packages of Jimmy Dean sage sausage

    well browned, take out grease.

    add a bowl of chopped up green tomatoes and another bowl

    of chopped up sweet peppers, add one hot pepper maybe...

    salt/pepper to taste.

    saute. Makes a great sausage "sloppy joe"

  • Sausage sloppy joes sound good and I'd damn sure try the squirrel if someone cleaned one and gave it to me.

    My dad used to hunt squirrel, rabbit and "other" small game with his .22 LR single shot but he grew up surrounded by old growth forrests during the Great Depression.  Try it maybe. (same .22 I learned to shoot with)

    Now beef, pork, chicken, venision and modern day fare.....yeah, especially if fire is involved!  Ummmmmm. GAMEDAY food!

    Well they should be easy pickins' since I put out bird seed off my back porch and watch the little rodents share it with the birds. Now I do have a pair of really fat dove that show up too and come Sept. 1, the season is on. Soak 'em overnight in 1/2 buttermilk & 1/2 red wine,  pin bacon around the breast meat and fire up the grill. Yum! And I bet that would work well on the little rodent critters too.?️??️

    We have a cookbook of my sister in law's favorite recipes. I can tell you she has written up some really excellent stuff that she shared only with immediate family. Everything from desserts thru veggies and everything in between. Great job she did of collecting over about 4 decades and then put into print for us. Wonderful flavors throughout. And like any really good cookbook, we have to really shop in exotic places sometimes to find the exact ingredients.

    Anyone like my Vietnamese Dog recipe (other than Cal-he'll eat anything that walks or crawls).?

  • no, I'm very specific about what is good, Real American football season food.

    it isn't a "make someone sick" thread.
