Grass-Fed beef/Steak

Slow Cooked Grass-Fed Beef Roast with Green Beans

Chuck Roast with Green BeansThanks for checking back at Pure Homemaking, I hope you make yourself at home!


This is another one of those super easy, super simple, super delicious meals.  It’s so simple that it hardly requires a recipe so I will just list simply how it’s made.

What’s so great about this is that I made the chuck roast in the crock pot the day before and pulled the meal together the next day shortly before we eat it. You can also cook a large batch and freeze some of the meat to make quickie meals later on, like a stir fry or beef tacos. This is a good meal to serve in any season, and it’s great for warmer weather because you cook most of it your crock pot which helps to keep your house cool. You will also yield about a quart or so of nice beef broth from this as well. [Read more...]

Perfect Rainy Day Stoup

This Pure Homemaking Blog entry is participating in Kelly the Kitchen Kop’s Real Food Wednesday. Check out some of the other recipes over there!

I was in no mood today. No good mood anyways. I am SICK of the rain here in Frederick. So, I didn’t have anything prepared for dinner because I was too busy brooding about the lack of spring. Is it just me, or is thing spring not very “springy” so far. I digress. [Read more...]

Make in Your Sleep Shredded Beef

I’m going to see how short I can make this post. It will probably take me longer to type it then it did to make it. This is one of those amazingly good crowd pleasing, kid loving, husband approved cheap meals that should be in your dinner que. I got this idea from Kelly the Kitchen Kop (I think) and it’s so simple it’s not something I would normally think of doing as I can sometimes over complicate things. [Read more...]

Lentili

This is another name chosen by my faithful hubby. Because it’s like chili meets lentils. Lentili. I thought it was clever.

So, this was a recipe that I adapted from something that I found on the Passionate Homemaking Blog. I wanted to do it in the crockpot because I was going to be running errands during prime time dinner cooking time and really wanted to avoid the temptation of drive through. So, I pulled out the crockpot and thought for a while about what I wanted to make. I remembered I had made this before in the crockpot so decided to whip it up because I remembered it being really good! And it is really good. Like comfort food to the max. Especially in the winter.

No Mistakin’ Bacon Chedder Burger’s

(My husband named this one)
So my 6 year old is a pretty picky eater. She doesn’t even generally like burgers so I was surprised when she couldn’t stop talking about these. Between the sweet and almost spicy and the bacon-these are a crowd pleaser for sure. My hubby even had them as left overs (yes he had two) and they were just as good, even though there wasn’t any more bacon. You should make these. Your family will love you for it and you might make a new best friend if you make it for them. [Read more...]

Fail Proof Marinated Steak

This marinade is so good you will find yourself coming to it time and time again even playing around with it to make it yours. The secret in this one is the soy sauce, and of course the garlic. You can’t have a good steak without it. Come to think of it, you can’t do much without it. We’re friends, garlic and I. I digress. Here goes:

First off, start with a good cut of steak. Grass fed beef is best because, well because of a lot of reasons but speaking purely form a culinary standpoint it’s very tender, juicy and full flavored. I used a thick cut rib-eye for this one, about 2 pds. Can also be split into smaller sizes. [Read more...]
