A Rhode Island exclusive. Kind of like a Sloppy Joe but far superior. Spicy enough to earn it's name, it's best washed down with a good beer. For you non Rhodey people, torpedo rolls are just the long sandwich rolls.

Transfer the mixture to a slow cooker, and stir in tomato paste, water and red pepper flakes. Cover, and cook at the Low setting for at least 4 hours. I usually let it go for 12. The longer it simmers, the spicier it gets! Spoon into torpedo rolls and serve.

Goat and Butternut Squash Stew
This is a tasty, spicy dish for a cold fall or winter evening and can be a good way to introduce goat to people who think they don't like goat. If you're not a fan of a long saute process, it can also be prepared in a slow cooker. Serve over rice.
Instant Pot® Coconut Rice
Easy and delicious. Tastes just like the restaurant.
Nana's Beef Stroganoff
This is a delicious beef stroganoff that my Nana made all the time. My husband's favorite meal is stroganoff, and before we met he never had homemade stroganoff sauce. Once my mom made this for him, he has never eaten any other! Serve over rice or egg noodles.
