Beware Food Network cravings..

Watching Food Network television can land you in the kitchen for 4 hours on Sunday!
Last evening, we were watching Drive-ins, Diners and Dives, and they were touring a couple of Barbeque 'shacks'. Well the food looked sooooo tempting, we instantly started scouring the net for recipes to make our own version (as our favourite place to go is Memphis Blues in Vancouver and a road trip was out of the question - there is the local Smoken Bones restaurant, but if we're going to go out and spend that kind of money...well, if you've been to Memphis Blues, you'd understand...)

So we made do with what we had...

Maple Leaf Corn Beef Brisket was cooked in cast-iron dutch oven similar to this http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/food/views/My-Mothers-Brisket-13482
Baked Beans - http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Boston-Baked-Beans/Detail.aspx
Crockpot Cornbread - http://crockpot365.blogspot.com/2008/01/crockpot-corn-bread-recipe.html
Coleslaw - http://southernfood.about.com/od/coleslawcabbagesalads/r/r80731b.htm
Potato Salad - http://southernfood.about.com/od/potatosalads/r/bln298.htm
Whole Wheat Loaf from Fol epi
Rice Pudding - http://www.veganchef.com/ricepudding.htm

Let's see what the verdict is after we eat! At the very least, we have plenty of leftovers for lunches this week!
