It smoked up my house pretty bad, but I can live with that. It's four stars only because it was kind of greasy- a little too greasy for my taste. Too much butter I think. Helpful (13) Barbecue Ribs 03/19/2012 Mmm, the marinade is going to be my go-to recipe for BBQ sauce now. These were seriously good. The kitchen smelled like a distillery afterward but the rum was not overpowering, just added a really lovely flavor. I don't like spice so I totally left out the chile sauce and we cut the sugar because I don't usually care for tooth-achingly sweet bbq. It was so yummy!! Helpful (3) Chicken Tortilla Soup with Salsa 10/24/2011 Oh YUM! I followed the more precise instructions from reviewer NMR and this turned out great. Had to sub gouda for the jack cheese cause that's what I had, but it was still pitch perfect. I also roasted a habanero pepper and chopped it up to put in my sweetie's serving, as he likes things very spicy. Yum! Helpful (3) Black Bean and Corn Quesadillas 08/08/2011 These were so good! I was a skeptic, but my sweetie loves quesadillas and I was looking for a way to make them meatless to save money but still be filling- jackpot! I'm not a salsa person, so I left that and the red pepper flakes out, then added some fresh basil from my garden and squeezed half a lime into the mix. I think cilantro would probably be good in this too. Helpful (6) Sunday Morning Lemon Poppy Seed Pancakes 08/06/2011 These were good! I only have two minor nitpicks: one is that they don't taste all that lemony, and that was after I doubled the amount of lemon. Secondly, the mixture as the recipe calls for was really runny- the pancakes did not hold their form at all until I added some more flour. To be fair, I did use a gluten free flour mix with this, but I have never had a problem with it before. Other than those two things, these pancakes were great, made the batter the night before and then threw them on the griddle for a quick breakfast. The poppy seed flavor was perfect, maybe next time I'll spread them with lemon curd or something to really bring out the lemon flavor. Helpful (4) Zucchini Brownies 08/03/2011 Hmm. Not sure what happened with these... I had to half the recipe because my zucchini was not as big as I had thought. In the end I actually had just a bit less than 1 cup of zucchini. They tasted good, but they smelled kind of weird- like veggies I guess. The disconnect of eating something that smelled like veggies but didn't taste like veggies made the experience of eating them not that fun. It's too bad, too, because the idea of getting veggies in your dessert is amazing.
