  1. Delicious dinner! I made mine in the crock pot. Just put the beef and onions in there in the morning and later that afternoon, I poured off the excess liquid and shredded the meat. Then I added the sauce mixture and placed the crock pot on warm for an hour or so before dinner. Served them in pita pockets as the rolls I made for dinner were a failure :-(. I did add about 1/4 of the hot sauce as I was a big chicken about it being too hot. (You can always add more on your sandwich). Thanks for sharing!
     
  2. I served this to guests..doubled the recipe for 5 aduts, and there was not a scrap left...they just kept eating and eating. We all liked this very much. I followed the recipe exactly, except I cooked at 350 for about l hour. The recipe bags were new to me too..I used the foil kind that you fold to seal. They worked great, and the cleanup was so easy. Great tasting bbq..a little spicy with just a hint of sweet!
     
  3. What an easy, yummy treat! I've never used cooking bags before so I had a couple of things to learn (like, they supply you with the proper twist ties ...). I used a boneless chuck roast because the round steaks at the store looked a little "pale". I trimmed it well, then followed the recipe as directed (with a little less onion per the boyfriend's request). I served it on rolls toasted with a little olive oil and garlic salt, plus a topping of melted provolone cheese. And yes, the clean-up is sooooo quick! Definitely a keeper recipe - good for hot lunches!
     
  4. This is great! We loved our supper last night! Backed off a little on the chili powder and the hot sauce for our tastes. Served this on toasted onion rolls and offered shredded smokey gouda cheese on the side. Sliced the meat while it was still slightly frozen, so it was much easier to cut.Next time might serve with coleslaw to place on top of the meat.
     
  5. OMG!!!! This is absolutely great! The house began to smell wonderful after cooking for 30 minutes and DH kept asking, "when's dinner?" While eating, he said, "you didn't make enough and when are we having this next week?" LOL So easy to put together and cleanup. I had never before used the bags either (I used the clear, plastic ones that come with their own ties). I used extra garlic and about 1/2 the chili powder (for my delicate tastebuds). I cooked this at 325°F for about 70 minutes. Only difficulty was trying to get everything out of the bag in order to serve it. I know we will have this again. Thanks for a great recipe!

RECIPE SUBMITTED BY

(As many of you know Silent Cricket passed away on Feb. 29. Since she loved Recipezaar so much and so many on Recipezaar have shown their love for her, and have enjoyed her recipes, her personal information will remain here indefinitely just as she wrote it. Her lines at the end of this section sound somewhat prophetic as the last chapter of her earthly existence has been written.) Well, the time has come for me to change my users' name. After being, "OzCoMartha" because of having lived for three years in Australia and then moving to Colorado, I have decided to "turn over a new leaf." I chose this name because many moons ago I used to be able to "chirp" like a cricket and the "silent" refers to the present time when I'm taking a break...But, perhaps after a season, however long I decide that needs to be, I may be back and then I will fill in more details about myself...
