These goldenrod eggs are a generational French family tradition for Easter morning. I have searched the entire internet for a recipe and I've never heard of anyone having it but our family. Everyone likes it so much that we have it more often than just Easter.

Melt butter in a large saucepan over medium heat. Whisk in flour and stir, constantly, until the mixture becomes paste-like, about 3 minutes. Gradually whisk in milk, and bring to a simmer, stirring constantly. Reduce heat to medium-low, and cook, stirring occasionally, until thickened, 5 to 10 minutes more. Season with salt and pepper.

Texas BBQ Beef Ribs
Beef short ribs, or "dino ribs" as they are called, are the new hot item in Texas and one of my favorite things to smoke right now. Beef short ribs are from the short plate before the 10th rib and have more meat than back or finger ribs. The famous Louie Mueller Barbecue in Taylor, Texas popularized beef ribs in response to Aaron Franklin's "Best Brisket on the Planet" designation. Each one can weigh 1 to 2 pounds. They are rich in flavor and a lot of times better than brisket. Yes I said it.
