This Miso Maple Chicken is a dish with truly special flavor! Usually, here on Between Carpools, we try to stick to the basic ingredients. We don’t like to send you on a hunt for ingredients and we love when you can make a recipe using ingredients that you already have on hand! So, even though…
Simple but Amazing: Slow Roasted Onion Chicken
Use the same recipe for any roast! This Onion Chicken (or Roast) is as simple and easy as can be.

The Tried-and-True Beer-Braised BBQ Brisket

Savory Tortilla Hamantaschen That Taste As Good As They Look
Say hello to your new Purim appetizer. Back in 2016 I wrote a cookbook, Our Table, and within the most popular recipes, the Spiced Meat Envelopes simply stood out.

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…
