Tender Roast Venison From the Lodge Cast Iron Cookbook, this is the technique for roasting less tender cuts of venison and beef I've used for years. Sometimes I'll set the roast on top of a quartered onion, some celery, and garlic instead of a rack, and will add potatoes and carrots to the pot about an hour before it's going to come out of the oven. The pan juices are delicious as is, or can be thickened with a little flour. A hearty meal for a cold winter night. |

Rustic Polenta Casserole with Sausage The America's Test Kitchen Make-Ahead cookbook is full of family-friendly recipes you can make ahead and store, refrigerated or frozen. That means you can whip one out and have a fantastic dinner on the table without a whole lot of effort. This one is finished off with a handful of mozzarella and browned to bubbly perfection. |

Ralph Brennan's BBQ Shrimp From Ralph Brennan's classic New Orleans Seafood Cookbook, this is my absolute favorite BBQ shrimp recipe. Don't try to double the recipe because the key is to have a single layer of shrimp; make two batches if you want to serve 4 people. Crusty French bread for sopping up the sauce is essential, and overlook the fact that two servings contain a whole stick of butter. You're not going to eat this way every day. |
