Gumbo Sloppos (Version of Sloppy Joes)

2.5lb Beef, Brown while adding nice amount of:
Salt, Pepper, Onion Powder, and a lil Garlic Powder
Drain grease. Adding in:
Few more shakes of above seasoning, to taste
1/4-1/2 Small White Onion, minced
Few good Splashes of Worcestershire
5T Ketchup *See Notes
1T Brown Sugar
3/4 small can Tomato Paste


*Notes: You can try Chili Sauce (Heinz, NOT sweet!). I used Ketchup.
(I’ve used half beef w/ half ground deer meat ground with pork fat)
LEFTOVERS make for an amazing shepards pie!
Add in grated carrot, peas, and corn. Top with Mashed Potatoes and Mexi Cheese (Not the seasoned Mexi Cheese!)


Another Version:
1.5-2lb Beef
Few good shakes of Garlic Powder
Shake of Onion Powder
Good shake of Him. Salt
Good shake of Pepper
A lot of good splashes of Worcestershire
4oz. Tomato Sauce
2 cans Chicken Gumbo Soup
1T Brown Sugar
4-5T Ketchup (Optional. Try first. You might like it here.)

French Dip-wich

2.5lb Beef Roast, Salt and Peppered. Allow to sit about 20 minutes.
Premix Broth: 2c Beef Broth, 1 Garlic Clove (Minced), 1T Minced Dried Onions, 1tsp Dried Rosemary, 1tsp Dried Thyme, 4T Worcestershire.
Spray Instant Pot with Butter Flavor Cooking Spray. Add Premixed Broth and place in Roast. Pressure cook on high for 45 minutes. (It’s okay if it’s not done. We are simmering it next.)
Remove Meat from Juice, RESERVING the Broth Juice. Cut up Meat. Set aside. Add a drizzle of Olive Oil to skillet. Heat skillet, add 1T Tomato Paste and fry Paste up. Add in Meat and mix around with Paste. Add in 1 Au Jus Packet and mix around. Then, add in 2c Reserved Broth Juice (Use water to reach 2c, if not enough. *See Notes). Bring to boil, then, simmer for about 5-10 minutes. Optional to Melt Provolone on top. Serve on Buns. Dip in excess Juices.


Freezer friendly: Allow to cool some. Freeze. Add to Crock to heat up.

I was making this as a freezer meal for later time eatings. In making the above recipe, it gave me about 3c of Broth Juice reserved from the instant pot. So, I had about 1c Reserved Broth Juice left, outside from the 2c I needed for the French Dip recipe. Instead of tossing it, I used that leftover juice and cooked some Green Beans, from the garden, and Pork Steaks. Just added all to the skillet, and cooked down juices. It was delish.

NOTES: If a more tamed flavor is desired, use desired ratio of Reserved Broth Juice, with Water. Just simmer a lil longer when you mix with Paste and Au Jus. Example: Instead of 2c Reserved Broth Juices, use 1 1/2c Reserved Broth Juice with 1/2c Water.

On Egg Wrapper, spread THIN line of Relish. Top with Beef Mixture, then, sprinkle with cheese. Then, top with 1-2T Coleslaw Mix. Wrap. You can use egg wash to fold it in place, but, I just use water, rubbed on with finger. Wrap. Butter Flavor Cooking Spray tops and bottoms of Egg Rolls. Brown each side of Egg Rolls. Sprinkle with Garlic Powder OR a lil of Garlic Salt (I use powder).
Serve with a Side of Ketchup.

Other cooking options: Egg Wash and Bake. Or Air Fryer.

TAYco Seasoning (BEST Taco Season EVER!)

tacomeat
Our NUMBER 1 Go To Recipe for Homemade Taco Seasoning. A perfect spice and flavor! Use for your favorite Taco Dish, including your Taco Chili! On Tacos! In Salads or Dishes! You’ll never buy packaged season again!

1T Chili Powder
1/2T Dried Oregano
1 Chicken OR Beef Broth Cube, crushed to powder
2tsp Cumin
1tsp Garlic Powder
1tsp Dried Minced Onions
1/2tsp Paprika
1/2tsp Course Black Pepper
UP TO 1/2tsp Sea Salt (I used 1/2tsp)
1/4tsp Chipotle Powder
1/3c-1/2c Water, or to taste

-Optional:
1/8tsp Cinnamon (I skip sometimes)

Pre-mix Seasoning. (I use Chicken Broth for Chicken Tacos. And, Beef for Beef Tacos.) Cook Meat, adding in Season. (I also mix in about 1/4c Refried Beans.). Simmer and stir til juices cook down and flavors blend nicely. At End, I splash with Lime Juice (Small splash. Maybe 1tsp, if I had to guess). Quite TAYsty!

Try above Recipe AS IS. Most online recipes call for 1tsp of Salt. This is LESS Sodium than those. Even less than some packaged Seasonings! But, if you “Insist” and are trying to cut Salt, try skipping the Broth Cube and just using Sea Salt.

Tay’s Steak Soup (A Steak Soup that Actually… TASTES LIKE STEAK!)

steaksoup

Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 Sirloin Steak (I threw mine in frozen)
4 Beef Broth Cubes
2 Herb Ox Beef Broth Pkts. (Or use 2 more Beef Cubes) *SEE NOTES
6c Water (1c per 1Broth)
1T Soy Sauce
1/2T Worcestershire
About 1/8tsp Liquid Hickory Smoke
1tsp Dried Oregano
1/2tsp Onion Powder
1/2tsp Garlic Powder
1/4tsp Pepper
1/8tsp Sea Salt
1.5c Mushrooms, sliced
1 nice sized CUP Onion
1 Celery, halved long way, sliced
1/4c thawed Frozen Peas (Last 30min.) *Optional, I forgot

2c uncooked Egg Noodles (Last 30 minutes, about)

LIGHTLY/BARELY brush Crock Pot with Extra Virgin Olive Oil (A LITTLE)-Yes, do! Add all, except Peas and Egg Noodles. Cook on LOW for 6 hours. Last 30minutes, add in THAWED Peas and Egg Noodles. Once Noodles are soft. Eat. OPTIONAL to add 1tsp of Horseradish Topping to each Bowl Served (Recipe Below). House was split on that.
Being Lazy and forgetting to thaw, I just threw a Frozen Slab of Sirloin into the Crock. Once thawed, I cut into cubes, and added back to crock. Tasted just fine. 
* NOTES: In an attempt to cut “Some” Salt, I used 2 Herb Ox Beef Broth Packets in place of 2 Beef Broth Cubes. Herb Ox is a NO SODIUM Broth. You can VERY WELL use Beef Broth Cubes in it’s place. So, 6 Beef Broth Cubes, if skipping Herb Ox.

Optional Soup Topper (1tsp, or more, per Bowl Served) 
1T Prepared Horseradish Sauce
4T Sour Cream
1/8tsp Mustard Powder
1/2tsp Lemon Juice

Italian Sausage Submarines (Italian Sausage Subs)

Italian Sausage Submarines

1.25 lb. Sweet Italian TURKEY Sausage, casing removed
1/2 lb. Chorizo
2c Rinaldi’s Spaghetti Sauce (We did Original- But, any works)
1 can Basil and Oregano Tomatoes, DRAIN WELL (Press lid some)

1 Red Pepper
1 Green Pepper
1 filled cup Red Onion, sliced
1/8tsp Pepper
3/4tsp Dried Italian Seasoning
1T Grated Parmesan Cheese (Store shelf kind)

Topping Shredd. Cheese Choice: Provolone, Moz., Or Italian (At end)
Other toppings *Optional: Olives, Spinach/Kale/Lettuce, Tomatoes, even Mayo!, etc.

Two Ideas of cooking:
1.) Cook meat (I start with Turkey, then add in Chorizo.). Butter Flavor Cooking Spray Crock. Add all, EXCEPT, peppers and topping cheese. Cook on Low total about 4-5 hours. About 1/2way TO hour before serving, add in peppers. At end, top with cheese, once melted serve on toasted bread of choice. Garlic Bread works.
Or Over noodles (Mock noodles work, like Zucchini noodles).

2.) Cook meats in large skillet, adding in seasons. Add in rest. (Optional: Saute vegis separate on side, with minced garlic. Add as topping.). Top meat with cheese. Cover, simmer til melted. Serve all on buns. Or over noodles.

FOR BREAD: Preheat oven to about 450. Cut bread to sizes desired, then mostly half. Quick spray of Butter Flavor Cooking Spray (Brush of butter works, too). Sprinkle with Cheese & Garlic Topper Season (Fleet Farm Brand) and Garlic Powder. Bake about 8 minutes, then broil for about 20seconds.

NOTES: We amped our typical Meat, Pepper, and Sauce recipe to get this. Chorizo gives it some heat. White Wine gives it an oomph. Turkey Meat cuts some cals. Feel free to skip or tweek to your taste. Like using Beef, Italian Sausage-Not turkey, etc. Or skipping Chorizo, up Italian Turkey- I’d add Red Pepper Flakes then! Basil and Oregano instead of Italian season, or seasons of choice. Up Sauce to taste. Etc. Like I said, To Your Taste! Endless Options.
Healthier Options: Serve on Lettuce Wraps, over Rice Noodles/Zucchini Noodles, etc.
