The Tried-and-True Beer-Braised BBQ Brisket
The best recipes are always the ones that came from a friend who got it from another friend. This brisket is one of those. When my friend E. told me how she makes her brisket, she couldn’t really tell me where it came from. It was one of those handwritten recipes in her notebook that…

How to Make the Famous Kleiman Cholent
How we even have this cholent written down is also a story! When Between Carpools asked me for my family’s cholent recipe (apparently, it’s known to be an amazing cholent), I happened to have a copy of the recipe that was written down by hand years and years ago. Awhile back, one of the young…

Ok, let’s make these…

Wouldn’t you like to just cover your dip bowls on Friday night and then use them again without having to wash and refill them?
