- red beans & rice ft. Food Co.‘s Louisiana Style Red Beans & Rice

Even with the added veggies, proteins, & seasonings, we kept it under $5 a serving. My math for this dish was around $3.85/person.

& honestly, by bulking it up, we wound up with more than just 5 servings. Can’t wait to try the other flavors! You can purchase from their website, or I saw them on the app as well!

- southern spiced pecans ft. a couple of products made right here in Arkansas! We’re using the ARKANSAS DIAMOND FIRE®️ Ch*****ne Pepper Sauce & WOOO-cest-er-shire sauce from the folks over at supertasterz™️

Also, I’ve yet to try them on salad or ice cream (but I can tell it’d be amazing) - HOWEVER, I have been crushing them up onto a slice of PB toast w/ a drizzle of hot honey & it’s heavenly 🤭😮‍💨

- smoked chicken on the Big Green Egg using some WICKER'S FOODS Peck’s Original Dry Rub 🙌🏼

We’ve been using Wicker’s marinade for years but had no clue they made a dry rub until they reached out recently! It’s made just down the road from us in Hornersville, MO & their dry rub did not disappoint! You can find their dry rub at Hays Grocery Stores or order from their website

(Big green egg, wicker’s dry rub, smoked chicken, bbq chicken)

- we’re home 🥹❤️

It’s been a rough week. Wilbur had an extended vet stay after becoming lethargic & refusing to eat or drink. X-rays showed an obstruction in his intestines. For a couple of days there, it was looking like surgery was on the table.

Thankfully, we’re doing much better now & we’re finally all home. We’re almost certain he ate a bunch of grass at the river last weekend & it wadded up in there 🙂🙃 we’ve given him strict instructions to never do that again.

It had been so quiet at the house this week & our hearts were hurting big time. I didn’t share the news with many people - but the ones who did know have been so great this week. Checking in, reaching out, & just sending lots of love, prayers, & positive vibes our way. We may be DINKs but Wilbur is our baby.

I also want to give a huge thank you to Woodsprings Animal Clinic. Wilbur has been seeing Dr. Mark & his amazing staff since he was a puppy. They gave him the best care (despite the side eye he’s giving in slide 5) & were also so kind to us - letting us come visit him each day he was there & explaining everything to help put our minds and our hearts at ease.

🤍

- pt. 30: my DINK breakfast before heading out to my 9-5 🍳

Can’t go wrong with a bacon, egg, & cheese - but where you can go absolutely RIGHT with it is adding a little BUFFALO RIVER SAUCE CO.™️ to it 😙🤌🏼

(Breakfast, breakfast sandwich, bacon egg and cheese, breakfast ideas, buffalo sauce)

- huge thanks to WICKER'S FOODS for sending us all these goodies. We’ve used their original marinade for years but didn’t know they had so many other products!

We were excited to just try the rub & they hooked us up with so much more 🥹❤️ Also, be on the lookout for a smoked chicken recipe soon using that Peck’s Dry Rub! So good!

- pt. 29: my DINK breakfast before heading out to my 9-5 🍳

I’m not even sure if it’s on the menu still, but this was inspired by a breakfast sandwich I had from Potbelly Sandwich Works once during a breakfast catering order. Big fan of sautéed mushrooms & they’re great at bulking up a breakfast sandwich 🍄‍🟫

- red w**e braised chuck roast 🥩🍷

Ft. Golden Steer | Steaks, Seasonings, and Butters Sergio’s Seasoning
