This song came on and reminded me of my post divorce self destruction days.

This recipe is posted In honor of and in dedication to Lemmy meme history in the making.

Ingredients:

• 1 lb of Jimmy Dean Sausage Mild or Hot
• Half a pound of bacon ends and pieces or diced bacon
• 2 Large cans of Baked Beans
• 2 Small cans of Kidney Beans (drained)
• Onions Diced
• Bell Peppers Diced
• 2 Tablespoons of Molasses
• 2 Tablespoons Brown Sugar
• 2 Tablespoons Barbecue Sauce
• 1 Tablespoon Ketchup
• 1 Tablespoon Mustard
• 2 Dashes of Worcestershire Sauce
• Garlic powder to taste

Directions:

1. Preheat oven to 350^F^
2. Mix everything together reserving bacon for the top
3. Place in a pan large enough to allow beans to boil without boiling over
4. Put raw bacon on top layer and place in oven
5. Bake about an hour

This recipe was originally submitted to the church cookbook by my Aunt in the late 90's to early 2000's. She always brought the beans to whatever food function was being had, so naturally she was asked to share the recipe. I originally wasn't going to share this one in it's current state because it has many hallmarks of a badly written recipe. Though with a few tweaks I had a recipe that was ready to share for the most part. Maybe I'll revisit this one later and give it a proper reinventing as an open source recipe.

Ingredients:

• 1 1/2 oz by weight lard or shortening
• 1 1/2 oz by weight butter or margarine
• 2 eggs
• 1/3 cup sugar
• 1/2 tablespoon salt
• 1/2 teaspoon baking soda
• 1 1/2 tablespoon baking powder
• 15 oz flour (packed by weight)
• 2 cup whole milk
• 1 cup buttermilk

Directions:

1. Place container for fats on scale and tare to set scale to zero,weigh butter and lard in your microwave safe container then gently melt fats in microwave on low and set aside
2. In a mixing bowl or electric mixing bowl add eggs, sugar, salt, baking soda, and baking powder. Beat until well incorporated and let stand to bloom or rise (around 2 minutes)
3. Add whole milk and buttermilk to egg mixture and mix until combined.
4. Once fully combined slowly beat in flour until well incorporated, and no dry lumps remain.
5. Slowly whip in the butter and lard mixture until velvety smooth
6. If using an electric mixer, start slow, and easily raise speed of mixer until you are on high or mid high, mix at speed for about 30 seconds, or until velvet smooth, otherwise beat until your arm hurts and you can live with how lumpy the batter is.

For best results (read picture perfect), ladle 1.5-2 fl oz of batter into a dry, preheated pan. For extra crispy edges, but some white discoloration. ladle batter into a well buttered or well oiled pan.

For extra style points add M&M's, chocolate chips, frozen blueberries, or any other creative mix in you can imagine.

Serve with butter and some real maple syrup for plain pancakes, or whipped cream alone for chocolate chip cakes and fresh fruit with whip for a fruit cake. You can try powdered sugar with caramel and baked apple slices, or really any other combination you can imagine!

This is truly a blank canvas of a recipe!

I noticed there wasn't a recipes community so I decided to make one myself. Please share some of your favorite recipes and help support the Open Source Food movement!

Ingredients:

• 1 ½ pounds extra-lean ground beef

• ½ onion, diced

• 1 green pepper, diced

• 2 cloves garlic, minced

• 2 cups water, divided

• ¾ cup ketchup

• 2 tablespoons brown sugar

• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard

• 1 ½ teaspoons salt, or to taste

• ½ teaspoon ground black pepper

• 1 dash Worcestershire sauce

• 1 pinch cayenne pepper (or 2-4 drops tabasco sauce) to taste

• 1 tablespoon instant oatmeal, powderized in a food processor or herb grinder

• hamburger buns, rolls or other bread

Directions:

1. Place ground beef and onion in a large skillet over medium heat; cook and stir until beef is browned and crumbled, about 10 minutes.

2. Stir in green pepper and garlic; cook and stir until softened, 2 to 3 minutes. Add 1 cup water and stir, scraping the pan to dissolve any brown flavor bits from the bottom of the skillet.

3. Stir in ketchup, brown sugar, Dijon mustard, salt, black pepper, and Worcestershire sauce. Add remaining 1 cup water and bring mixture to a boil.

4. Add in some oatmeal powder and lower heat to simmer, simmering until thickened about 30 minutes while stirring occasionally. If the mixture is too loose to form sandwich filling out of comfortably at the 15 minute mark, add in some more oatmeal powder and simmer to firm up the mixture until desired consistency is met

5. Serve on hamburger buns, or whatever roll or bread you have on hand. For extra structural body to the sandwich toast the buns on a skillet or in a preheated oven or toaster oven.
