A little help

[Nick Prochilo]

For Super Bowl I'm cooking ribs and taco stuffed pasta shells. My problem is what side should I serve with this mess?

Bush's sweet beans goes with anything. Or have you ever heard of Pinto Beans? Not sure they allow them up in your neck of the woods. They supposed to make male chillins grow big muscles and the ladies to grow large bosoms. You must have had some back when you was a kid or something.

Always a hit, you need at least one sweet item, this will work as a salad but is almost dessert like.

Guess that is why I have gone so long without being banned or something. I can get along with good humored yankees. I can even play well with native Texicans..but it dont do much good because we all know what each other is talking about before we say it. lol. It's a Texas thing. Fact is I love everybody. Jesus done it..

Buzz, how fine do you crush the pretzels?

 

[bbquzz]

I think I use stix or tiny twists, put in a zip lock and crunch, 1/8" pieces, you don't want them real fine. As I remember it takes 2 cups after crushing to cover a 9" X 13".
