FRENCH DIP ROAST BEEF FOR THE CROCK POT



French Dip Roast Beef for the Crock Pot image

This is one of the best recipes I've come up with for beef roast. The cheapest cuts come out tasting like you slaved over a stove all day long. You can add potatoes and carrots to the recipe if you like, or shred it and serve it as a French Dip sandwich with the au jus juice from the crock pot on the side. If you are watching your sodium, use the lite soy sauce and it will taste just as delicious.

KITTENCAL'S CROCK POT FRENCH DIP ROAST



Kittencal's Crock Pot French Dip Roast image

Use only low sodium soy sauce and beef broth for this, my family likes spicy so I add in some crushed chili flakes also, I have left the onion powder or onion flakes as optional if you are an onion-lover then you might want to include it --- any leftover beef gravy may be frozen to use later for gravies or soup bases

KITTENCAL'S DILL PICKLES AND METHOD FOR PROCESSING



Kittencal's Dill Pickles and Method for Processing image

For 22 pounds of pickling cucumbers you will need 20 (1-quart) glass processing jars with lids, although you might only use 18 jars, the complete recipe may be reduced by half if desired, do not use very large pickling cucumbers, allow at least 3 weeks before opening the jars---we like things very spicy at my house so I also add in one small jalapeno pepper or a small teaspoonful of dried chili flakes into each jar but that is only optional, if you like spicy then you might want to give that a try in a few jars only--- you will need a lot of garlic for this recipe as you are using 4-5 cloves per jar, so purchase lots of garlic, peeling the garlic cloves takes some time so you might want to start days in advance you can store the peeled cloves in glass bowls covered tightly with plastic wrap in the refrigerator they will stay well for up to 3 days, use *only* a good-quality vinegar for this as it will make a difference to the taste of you pickles--- *enjoy* and happy canning! :)

Time P14D

Yield 22 pounds pickles

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 cup pickling salt
1 quart white vinegar (use a good-quality vinegar such as Heinz brand or similar)
12 cups distilled water
22 lbs pickling cucumbers
40 fresh dill sprigs (use 2 sprigs for each jar)
100 black peppercorns (use about 5 in each jar)
80 whole garlic cloves (peeled, using 4-5 per jar)
20 small jalapeno peppers (optional)

Steps:

  • Before you start this make certain to have 20 (1-quart) sterilized glass canning jars with lids.
  • I sterilize my jars and lids in my dishwasher, remove carefully and do not touch the inside of the jars after washing.
  • Place the sterilized jars on the counter to cool slightly and cover with a very clean tea towel while continuing with the recipe.
  • Wash and scrub the cucumbers well under cold water.
  • Using a fork or tongs divide and drop the pickles between all the jars but do not over stuff the jars as the pickles need room to absorb the brine properly.
  • For the brine: in a large (very clean) stock pot combine the brine ingredients; bring to full a boil and simmer stirring for about 1-2 minutes or until no salt granules remain; turn off the heat then cover with a lid and continue with the next step but do not let the water cool the water must be hot when poouring into the jars.
  • To each jar add in 1-2 springs fresh dill, 3 whole cloves garlic and 4-5 black peppercorns.
  • Ladle the HOT brine into each jar up to 1/2-inch from the top.
  • Immediately place the lids on but DO NOT tighten completely.
  • TO PROCESS: place the filled jars in the large pot or canner with a wire rack on the bottom (make certain the the jars are NOT touching each other!).
  • Pour in very hot water to about 1-inch over the jars; bring to aboil and process for 20 minutes at full boil (use a timer for this).
  • Remove the jars; set aside.
  • As they cool you should hear the lids popping and they should have a small "dip" in the middle.
  • The lids may NOW be tightened securely.
  • Store in a cool dry place.
  • Allow at least 2 weeks before opening.

KITTENCAL'S CREAMY RANCH DRESSING/DIP



Kittencal's Creamy Ranch Dressing/Dip image

A creamy dressing with the perfect blend of spices, adjust the amount of dill to suit taste I advise not to use more than 2 teaspoon fresh garlic or it will overpower the dressing, all other amounts may be adjusted to suit taste --- don't even think about serving this dressing until after it's chilled for at least 4 or more hours and the longer the better --- for a lower fat option use low-fat mayonnaise, sour cream and buttermilk --- for Ranch Peppercorn dressing add in 1 tablespoon cracked black pepper or to taste, and for Parmesan ranch dressing add in 1/4 cup grated Parmesan cheese or to taste --- this makes a fantastic veggie dip!

KITTENCAL'S EASY REFRIGERATOR KOSHER GARLIC-DILL PICKLES



Kittencal's Easy Refrigerator Kosher Garlic-Dill Pickles image

I make these every year when my pickling cucumbers are ready in my garden, they are really great pickles and so easy to make, add in more garlic and adjust the dill if desired --- these pickles develop in flavor with refrigeration time so allow them to chill at least 7 days or even longer before using, the longer the better, the pickles will keep for months in the refrigerator, use only kosher salt for this not table salt, and make certain to wash the outsides of the cucumbers thoroughly, see note on bottom --- for soaking the pickles in firstly to remove bacteria see my recipe#300387

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time P7DT15m

Yield 2 pds pickles

Number Of Ingredients 7

6 cups water (I use distilled bottled water)
1/4 cup kosher salt (use only kosher salt)
2 tablespoons white vinegar
2 lbs small cucumbers, thoroughly scrubbed
1/3-1/2 cup coarsely chopped fresh dill (for a stronger dill flavor increase to 3/4 cup)
8 large fresh garlic cloves (coarsely chopped or sliced, use more for a stronger garlic taste)
8 whole black peppercorns

Steps:

  • Clean the glass jar and lid thoroughly in your dishwasher or with hot soapy water.
  • Combine the water, salt and vinegar in a saucepan; bring to a boil over medium heat.
  • Remove from heat; cool to room temperature.
  • Pack the cucumbers and the remaining ingredients in a 2-quart (2 litre) glass jar, and pour brine (water/vinegar mixture) over them, covering the cucumbers completely.
  • Store, covered in the the refrigerator.
  • The pickles will be ready in 7 days, but the longer you leave them in the refrigerator the better they will be and will keep refrigerated for months (if they last that long!).
  • **NOTE** since the peel is eaten on these pickles, make certain to wash and scrub the outside of the cucumbers well to remove any dirt, I use a small nail brush to scrub the outsides.
