Can you really think about eating a nice juicy burger without fries on the side?  Not me!

One of our favorite places to grab a quick bite is In and Out Burger. Our son works there now so we have plenty of reasons to swing in. Ordering a number 3, grilled onions with peppers, protein style hits the spot every single time. I love that everything is fresh and hot. Just like when I make food at home.

Even if I don’t order fries when we stop at our favorite fast food burger place  I still find myself sneaking a few off my husband’s tray. Usually he just goes ahead and order extra fries because he knows that I can not eat just one ..or two..of three.

I have made baked fries a few times and it never seemed as good as I hoped, but this recipe is totally different. This recipe addresses why baked fries tend to get a bit soggy. And really, who wants a soggy fry?

Here is what Emily of Layers of Happiness has to say about this recipe.

Crispy edges, soft centers; extra-crispy French fries baked not fried – so you can feel good about eating them!

When we moved to Southern California there was a restaurant that our older boys took us to. They raved about how zesty and fantastic the ribs were.

I thought maybe they were exaggerating a bit since they missed my cooking. I was wrong! Phil’s Bar-B-Que was a huge hit on our family trip and has since become one of our favorite rib places.

The big platter of food was devoured by our carnivorous offspring like Vikings after a plunder. When I saw that there was an actual sink in the family style dining room I assumed they were going a bit overboard. Not at all. The sink was perfect to rinse off what would have taken a small bale of napkins to clean up.

Ever since then I have been hoping to find a recipe that tastes similar and I think this one might be it.

Here is what the contributor Beverly Carson said about her down home recipe.

After not being able to find restaurant ribs that satisfied my hot sweet appetite, I carefully attempted various combinations of flavors until I found one that I and my family thought was perfect. Hope you enjoy them too.

Quick Tip: Go ahead and make up pasta or potato salad the day before you serve these. If you are having a big get-together it will be nice to have your cooking done and the mess cleaned up already tackled.

When I Heard How Famous This Meatloaf Was I Thought They Were Kidding!

I was going through several Pinterest sites when I saw the recipe for what looks like the same recipe my mom used to make. She mixed the egg, cracker crumbs, and diced onion together with her clean hands, then sprinkle with the salt, pepper, and onion powder and roll into a big ball. After being placed into a shallow baking dish it was lovingly formed it into a perfect loaf.

Before putting it in the oven, she would cover the top with her ketchup based sauce to help keep the moisture in and add flavor while it cooked. She never needed the recipe because she knew it from heart.

Mom usually made a Jell-O salad and mashed potatoes to go with it. When she sliced it to serve it up, the juices just ran onto the plate. I always love meatloaf as a kid because I knew the next day my mom would pack us meatloaf sandwiches. Even cold, her meatloaf tasted incredible. Yumm-O! As an adult, I am all about the sandwiches! I think that was the part my dad liked the best.
