This simple spice rub has so many uses–make a big batch and use it all Pesach long…and all year round. I originally used this Coffee Spice Rub on this Seder Night Flanken. But then, I realized, once I had this spice rub mixed and ready, it became useful for so, so many other things. It…

The Best Meat Pizza with Pastrami and Facon
What could be better? Not much. Yes, we know. There is a meat pizza recipe in Dinner Done, but, full disclosure, this one is better. What can we say, some recipes showed up after Dinner Done went to print, you know? So, why is this one so much better? Honestly, we are not quite sure…
Sweet and Tangy Pastrami
With just two ingredients and a hands-off cooking method, this pastrami couldn’t be an easier main course. The total package! It’s economical as far as meat is concerned, features just two ingredients (plus the meat), and is super crowd-pleasing. I got this recipe from a friend years ago and I can’t begin to tell you…
18 Dinners Using Ground Beef/Chicken
There’s no protein out there that’s as budget-friendly and family-friendly as ground meat! There’s perhaps no better bang-for-the-buck dinner out there. Ground chicken or beef stretches more than any other protein, and is typically very family-friendly. Almost every member of the family loves tacos or meatballs or recipes like Dinner Done’s Saucy Sesame Chicken. Ground…
Hearty Minestrone With Meatballs
Really, it’s called “Italian Wedding Soup” but with a name like that, we weren’t sure you would give it a try… Minestra is soup in Italian, and maritata means “married.” Minestra maritata ended up being called “wedding soup” but it’s definitely not served at Italian weddings. It’s just a marriage (and a very good one)…

Corned Beef Pizza
How do you feed 25 people with one piece of meat? It’s easy to find something to do with leftover slow-cooked meat–it simply gets pulled. This week’s roast or ribs equals next week’s tacos. This recipe came about to fill 2 needs. 1) I needed to figure out something that could be made with leftover…
Pessy’s 6-Ingredient Minute Steak Roast
It’s the best value in the meat showcase and will be perfectly soft and tender. Everyone has a different idea of what constitutes a perfect meat. Growing up, a successful roast had to be melt-in-your-mouth soft. Most of the time, fall off the bone, soft meats tend to be very fatty and also very expensive. …
Make Your Own Charcuterie/Meat Board (+ Freezer Friendly)
It’s such a satisfying way to start a Yom Tov meal. And you don’t need to spend a lot! Plus, everything can be done ahead. Thanks for Between Carpools, I’ve already served many of these. All of you have access to all of these recipes just like I do. Now, we’re just going to go…
The Best Homemade Beef Jerky
You will never buy jerky again. We can promise you that. So, let me explain this to you, in a way that you will understand, without saying too many words, about how my boys have been bragging about the “jerky that my mom made” to anyone willing to listen. Also, I became the cool mom…
