DYNAMITES

Provided by Rhea Bouchard Powers

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 9

2 lbs Ground beef
1 Really large onion (rough chopped)
2-3 Green bell peppers (rough chopped)
1 Large can of crushed tomatoes
8 ounce can of tomato sauce
Salt & pepper to taste
Hot peppers: I like an assortment since each add a different layer of flavor. Remove seeds and membranes and finely chop.
Hot sauce: A few good shakes definitely contributes to the overall flavor.
Crushed red pepper flakes: A good shake or two also adds a certain "Je ne sais quoi" to the flavor

Steps:

  • Place ground beef in a large pot, break it up and saute until just pink.
  • Add chopped onions and green peppers
  • Add crushed tomatoes and tomato sauce
  • Bring to a simmer and cook on low heat for at least 1 hour.
  • Once peppers and onions begin to soften, start adding seasonings as desired, tasting as you go.
  • Cook it down until thickened enough to spoon into rolls. I usually serve with a slotted spoon to drain out extra liquid.
  • Serve with a shaker of crushed red pepper flakes on the table because even the hard core heat addicts sometimes want just a little more heat.

DYNAMITES

These are a classic Rhode Island treat. So delicious in a soft sub-roll with a little salt on top. My toddler loves to dip chips in it too. This can also be cooked in a slow cooker.

DYNAMITE

A Rhode Island exclusive. Kind of like a Sloppy Joe but far superior. Spicy enough to earn it's name, it's best washed down with a good beer. For you non Rhodey people, torpedo rolls are just the long sandwich rolls.

RHODE ISLAND DYNAMITES

Another name for these are "Torpedos". These were a staple in our family for a quick meal that serves a lot of people. They are similar to a "Sloppy Joe", but in R.I. it is called a "Dynamite". This recipe is versatile and can be scaled down or up. It freezes well and tastes best if made 1-2 days ahead.

Time 2h20m

Yield 25 lbs, 20 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

5 lbs ground beef
5 lbs green peppers, diced
5 lbs red peppers, diced
5 lbs yellow onions, diced
5 garlic cloves, crushed
4 (28 ounce) cans tomato sauce
2 bay leaves
1/2 cup chopped fresh parsley
hot red pepper flakes, to taste
salt and black pepper, to taste
italian seasoning, to taste
20 fresh rolls (torpedo, grinder or any roll that will hold this mixture)

Steps:

  • In a very large stockpot over medium-high heat, brown the ground beef, stirring often.
  • Add the chopped green and red peppers, onions, and garlic; mix well.
  • When the vegetables begin to soften, add the tomato sauce, bay leaves, parsley, hot pepper flakes, salt, black pepper, and Italian seasoning.
  • Cover and simmer, stirring occasionally, for 2-3 hours.

Tips:

  • Utilize Fresh Ingredients: Prioritize using the freshest, high-quality ingredients available. This will greatly enhance the flavors and textures of your dishes.
  • Balance Flavors: Strive for a harmonious balance of flavors in your dishes. Incorporate a mix of sweet, sour, salty, bitter, and umami flavors to create a well-rounded culinary experience.
  • Master Basic Techniques: Familiarize yourself with fundamental cooking techniques such as sautéing, roasting, braising, and baking. Mastering these techniques will enable you to execute recipes more skillfully and consistently.
  • Don't Overcrowd the Pan: When searing or sautéing, avoid overcrowding the pan. This will prevent the ingredients from cooking evenly and result in steamed rather than seared food.
  • Use a Thermometer: To ensure meats and poultry are cooked to the desired doneness, use a meat thermometer. This will help prevent undercooked or overcooked results.
  • Season Generously: Don't be shy with seasonings. Taste your dishes throughout the cooking process and adjust the seasoning accordingly.
  • Experiment and Personalize: Feel free to experiment with different ingredients and flavors to create your own unique culinary creations. Cooking should be an enjoyable and creative process.
