Fifteen people are coming over to watch somebody whoop up on somebody in Dallas this Sunday. You must feed them. Want to be the host or hostess with the mostest?

Think outside the wing box and serve these babies.

Mom’s Meat Balls with a Devil’s Own Dipping Sauce can be a fantastic appetizer – or if you’re like me, you’ll eat so many of them they become a meal. Oh, the beautiful dipping sauce!

Check out the full recipe here. It’s really easy!

Have a great weekend, everybody! Enjoy the game!

Beginning in 2012, the USDA will require meat producers to include nutrition labels on cuts of meat like tenderloin, ground beef and the like.

What do you think about this?

Overall, it seems like a good idea to me. Information is, after all, power.

BUT. . . people usually resist change. It’s scary.

So, what do you think? Is this a move for the better or are we becoming more and more Big Brother-like????

Read the whole story about the new changes here.

Wow.  These hearty baked beans can be a meal all on their own.

They’re a meaty mix of ground beef (try this — it’s my fave), sausage, bacon and lots of other good stuff.

You can use them as a dip . . .

. . . or as a side dish with steaks, pork chops, burgers, brisket — anything!

So what are you waiting for? Check out this recipe from awesome Paula at Salad-In-A-Jar.com.

She rocks. And so will you if you bring this to the next neighborhood party.
