Sunday Letter: 01.05.20

Sunday Letter

Dear Sunday Letter friends,

Happy first Sunday Letter of 2020! So far this year, I’ve been super busy. If you read yesterday’s Grace Grits Newsletter, you probably know why. If you aren’t a subscriber, you can sign up HERE.

Forgive me for such a short letter. I was super excited about typing the first one with 20 in the date. The truth is, when you spend all your days hunkered over your MacBook, there isn’t much to report. You may get to the end and think she should have skipped this one altogether…Continue Reading

Barbecue Chipotle Meatballs (aka Kryptonite)

Barbecue Chipotle Meatballs

Barbecue Chipotle Meatballs are sure to be a hit at your next shindig, unless you’re a vegetarian. And if that’s the case, this may very well be your kryptonite. This dish packs some heat and couldn’t be easier to make. That’s a good thing when you’re hosting a shindig.

This recipe has been stashed away in my family favorite cookbook since 2008 when I clipped it from Southern Living magazine. (I know because it’s dated.) And I make it from time to time but not often enough.Continue Reading

The best Spicy Pulled Pork in all the land. And football.

Spicy Pulled Pork - the best in all the land.

Yesterday I made a spicy pulled pork based on Ree Drummond’s (The Pioneer Woman’s) recipe. I give her all the credit. I haven’t changed any of her ingredients because there’s no reason to tamper with the best pulled pork recipe in all the land. The only thing I do differently is I don’t use a food processor. Instead, I dice the onion and hand mix all the ingredients. I like to have pieces of onion in the mix. Plus, I don’t own a food processor. Crazy, I know.

Here’s a LINK to The Pioneer Woman’s recipe. Go check it out. She has beautiful pictures and step-by-step instructions.

Now on to football. John and I will be at the Razorback game today. And wooo pig, the weather should be nice. (The first game was hot!) Will the Hogs remember to show up? Please, yes. They play Texas Tech—love those old Southwest Conference rivalries. I’ll be secretly scouting the Red Raiders for next week’s Baylor Bear game. (So Briles, call me.)Continue Reading
