Welcome and enjoy some of Donna's Favorite's.
Broth:
2 32 oz. Chicken broth and bullion
2 Rotisserie chickens
1 Bay leaf
Summary:
Prepare chicken broth – Bring the bones of two chickens to a boil and simmer for 1 hr. Cool and Strain liquid.
Meatballs:
1 lb. ground beef
1 c. Italian bread crumbs
½ c. Parmesan cheese
1 t. onion powder
1 t garlic powder
1 egg
Eyeball beef broth (1/8-1/4 c.)
Summary:
Mix but don’t over mix. We purchased a .75 ice cream scoop which makes a consistent bite sized meatball. Scoops are hand rolled and rest before being added to broth
Dumplings:
2 c. Bisquick
2/3 c milk
Summary:
Stir but don’t over mix.
Cooking:
Bring Broth to a boil, drop meatballs, drop chicken, add dumpling mixture in 1 T. dollops and spread around the top of the liquid.
Lower heat to med low; simmer for 15 minutes with the cover on and remove cover and continue cooking for 15 mins off if needed.
Dry Brine:
3 lbs. Salmon
2 c. brn sugar
½ c. Kosher Salt
1 T. pepper
Summary:
Layer dry brine on the bottom of a glass 13 x 9 pan. Coat bottom of salmon filets and layer generously. Let sit overnight in fridge with plastic wrap. A lot of liquid will be removed from filets. Rinse filets with cold water removing salt. Allow filets to sit on wire rack for 4 hours at room temperature for surface to become tacky.
Cooking:
Smoked at 175 degrees to 200 degrees for 1 hr 30 mins to 1 hr 45 mins. Internal temp should be 145 degrees. We remove around 143 and allow to sit. Slower cooking keeps the white film from rising to the surface. Apple wood was most liked. Hickery is a more intense smoke.
Dill Spread:
1 T. lemon Juice
1/2c. (8 oz. container) soft cream cheese
1 T. chopped dill
½ t. garlic powder
1 T. finely chopped Red onion
Summary:
Mix together. Probably double the recipe. Use fresh lemons and dill for garnish on your favorite cracker. Club crackers are Donna’s choice.
3 c. Apple cider
2 c. Water
1 c. Apple cider vinegar
¼ c. Salt
¼ c. bRn sugar
¼ c. Worcestershire
2 T. BBQ Seasoning
1 T. garlic & onion Powder

Mix ingredients and add turkey breast. Brine overnight 13 hrs. Smoke for 2 3/4 hrs at 275 degrees with Apple wood, sprayed occasionally with apple cider.

2 lbs very lean ground pork (any)
1/2 t salt
1/2 t pepper
1/2 t nutmeg
1 C. chicken broth
2 sleeves of Ritz crackers crushed to fine
Your favorite pie crust (I use rolled up dough already made in grocery store)
Diorections:
Simmer the ground pork seasoned with the salt, pepper, and nutmeg in the chicken broth on top of a medium low heat slowly until thoroughly cooked.
Once the meat is cooked do not drain the liquid... this contains All the flavor. Let the meat cool a bit and then mix the 2 sleeves of crushed Ritz.
Line the bottom of a 9 inch pie plate with pie dough. Fill with the meat filling and top with the top crust. Seal and flute the edges of the pie crust as you normally would.
Bake at 350 degrees for about 35-40 mins or until the top crust is golden brown.
