We love it with soup, and I love that you can whip it up in a jiffy.

Refresher recipe: Buckskin Bread

2 cups flour
1 tsp baking powder
1 tsp salt
1 cup water

Stir together the dry ingredients, mix in the water until all the flour is included. Put into a greased pie plate and bake 1/2 hour at 400 degrees.

Oh yeah Gaz, the ease of just a few ingredients and a few minutes oven time, and hardly anything to clean up afterward - can't be beat! It goes wonderful with soups and stews. Your recipe for this has become a "make it often" at our house!

Thanks, Gaz. I was thinking I'd have to spend the next half hour trying to find the recipe.

Have you ever tried whole wheat flour for the bread?

Yes, it will work. The bread is quite dense and whole wheat makes it denser, but, with soup, it's all good. You can try it with half white and half whole wheat, or half masa and half white also.

hummm - next time - whole wheat it is!

Does anyone here have a tried and true recipe calling for Rice flour? I picked up a bag the last time I was at Honeybee Market because I had never seen it before and it intrigued me. I've been storing it in the fridge till I could come across a good recipe to try it out. Can you make bread with that too? I could look online, but if someone here has used rice flour before with good results, I'd trust that review more.

Rice flour does not have gluten, so if you are using a leavening agent, you will need to add enough wheat flour or gluten to react with the leavener. I would try half and half to start out with.

BigB23....what were you looking for from Jiffy? I think I have some of their older cookbooks that I can look in for you.

Jams and anyone else: This is on Cooks.com as well. The hams I got for my church dinner for 70 people or so are the pre-cooked ones that are rectangular shaped (I know, yuck)but the real hams were too expensive. They will be easy to serve and the folks aren't picky eaters here. My question is, should I go to the trouble of making this one with expensive orange marmalade, dijon mustard, etc. or should I use your recipe as you have had it and love it? Also, there isn't a fat side to the hams that I have. Should I score the hams and do the clove thing directly in the meat a bit? Thanks!

VERNORS - HAM GLAZE

1 liter Vernors
8 oz. jar dijon mustard
2 c. orange marmalade
1 c. light brown sugar
1 c. orange juice

Place 1 liter Vernors in a small pot and boil rapidly until liquid is reduced to 1 cup. To this syrup, add mustard, marmalade, sugar, and orange juice. Simmer 10 to 15 minutes or until the consistency of a light syrup.
Baste ham during the last 45 minutes of cooking (baste at 8 to 10 minute intervals). You can also serve the remaining glaze as a sauce.

Grumpyoldlady - I tried a (flan/strada?) using Jiffy mix, and what I thought was a great recipe. Everything fused together. Ended up throwing out the recipe along with the non-stick cake pans. Turned out to be a couple of boat anchors. I'll stick with omelets in the future. :-)

Why not try breakfast burrittos. Fry up some bulk sausage with green (or hot)pepper and onion. Add scramble egg mixture when sausage is cooked, to the fry pan. Put mixture in warmed flour tortillas, add cheese, roll up the tortilla and enjoy. Serve your Jiffy Mix corn bread on the side. Corn bread is also great in the morning served warm with honey butter.

Don't forget, French Toast is a nice change. Add a few drops of rum extract to your egg mixture and top with powder sugar. Note: I use my coffee grinder to powder regular granulated sugar.

You could also try hobo eggs. Butter both sides of the bread. Cut a whole in the middle, crack an egg to fill the hole and fry. Not my favorite but my husband loves it.

I am making stew on Saturday and plan to try the Buckskin bread. Sunday, I want to bake ham and will try Jams glaze recipe.

I make pulled pork by putting the pork roast in the crockpot and pouring a half bottle of 'Q sauce over it, then cooking it on low all day. I have done the same with a turkey breast, and it isn't at all bad. At the end of the day, just stick your meat forks in there and pull the meat into shreds, then scoop it over buns. Top with slaw if you're so inclined.

What sauce you say? Depends on the mood. I really like Sonny's hot sauce, but can't always get it.

Thanks, Gazhekwe,
I cook my pulled pork for 8-12 hours in apple juice, with onion and bayleaf in a low crockpot before any BBQ sauce comes near it.

Just having a hard time translating that to poultry.

I've made my pulled pork with many BBQ sauces, I found even Open-pit works well.

I put my brisket(s) in the crockpot on high, for 8 hours. And they still were a little tough. Must be the Kroger range beef from China.

By the way - meet my bartender for tonight.

I make my barbecued beef by putting a couple of chuck roasts sprinkled with garlic powder and pepper in a roaster and cook them at about 300 until they're tender. Then I hand shred them, and make a sauce out of the beef drippings, red wine, dry mustard, ketchup, brown sugar and a little Tabasco. Add the shredded beef to that and simmer until the meat is flavored and the sauce is the desired consistency, and serve on kaiser rolls

I don't see why you couldn't do the exact same thing with turkey or chicken, Jams. It will come out fine. Maybe only 8 or 9 hours will be needed. I would use a boneless turkey breast, and cut it in half. Also you could use chicken breast the same way. I guess you could pick out the bones when you take it out to shred it, if you don't want to use boneless.
