Sitting down to watch Your OWN Show: Oprah's Search for the Next TV Star with a cup of McSteven's Chocolate & Bacon Cocoa ($6.95). It is really, really good, and not weird at all: the tiny bit of smokiness cuts the sweetness perfectly.
I know, I know: I'm obsessed with my slow-cooker. But the recipe that reader Ali posted sounded too good not to make immediately.
I don't eat a whole lot of seafood. I mean, I obviously eat sushi whenever I can get my hands on it, and I make that Shrimp Saffron Linguine at least once a month...but other than that, the only thing I really do is bake a solo piece of salmon whenever Kendrick's away for the evening.
On New Year's Eve, we headed back to our place for Slow-Cooked BBQ Pork paired with baked beans, potato salad, and coleslaw.
This is the first time I've made my Aunt Jo-Anne's famous (at least in our family) baked beans in a slow-cooker. Highly. Recommended.
