One long term goal I’ve had for this blog is to fill in any recipe “gaps” so that this site is a useful resource for as many occasions and meals as possible.

Even after eight years of blogging full time, my recipe library is still missing things like an Easter ham (although I have a crock pot green bean casserole recipe to go with it!) and prime rib (although I have the mashed potatoes with heavy cream to go with it!).

A gap that I’m filling in today is cast iron baked beans, with this Dr. Pepper baked beans recipe. It’s one of my very favorite side dishes for ribs, or just about anything else.

I have to confess that I’m not the biggest chili fan. My mom only made it occasionally when I was growing up (I liked her lasagna with cottage cheese recipe much more!), and when she did, I mostly just ate the “broth” and left all of the “stuff” in the bowl.

I wasn’t much of a picky eater as a kid, but for some reason, traditional beef and bean chili just didn’t appeal to me. And still doesn’t.
