Potato Pizza
This recipe was born on a night when I hadn't gone grocery shopping, didn't have any tomato sauce or traditional pizza fixins on hand, but I did have a bag of potatoes that needed using. It has become a staple for us since that night (who doesn't love carbs on carbs!?) and has gone through dozens of iterations (with or without meat or fish, adding caramelized onions or roasted garlic as an extra layer, swapping in different types of cheese or omitting the cheese), all of which have been a hit. Because it's so simple, there are tons of things you can add to the mix and have it taste great, but you truly don't need anything other than the potatoes, herbs, and pizza dough. Anything else is just a bonus!
Smoked Pork Butt
We make this smoked pork butt recipe every few weeks because we love pulled BBQ pork sandwiches. The pork just shreds apart after it's done, and the smoky flavor is incredible. It's best to brine the meat overnight to help it retain moisture during smoking, but it's not necessary. Serve the shredded pork on buns with your favorite sauce. It's an authentic pit barbecue right in your own house!
Southern Raisin and Coconut Pie
This sweet, rich, custardy pie has raisins, nuts, and coconut. A favorite in the Deep South! If you're a big fan of cinnamon, you can add a couple extra teaspoons to the recipe. Garnish each slice of pie with whipped cream and chopped nuts for a delicious and attractive presentation..
