Three years ago I made some basic Italian beef with pureed tomatoes and red wine. I had leftovers and canned them for later.

Combine that with oven fries, smoked mozzarella and some seasonings and we have this monster meal. Not available in stores.

Cost: $4.00

    Exactly. Brings the heat closer to the food without the risk of burning and allows for the occasional doneness check without letting so much heat out.

        Two decades ago I wanted fries but didn’t want to waste oil. That’s when I created my recipe.

        Taco seasoning.
        Chili powder.
        Italian seasoning.
        Montreal steak seasoning.
        Salt.
        Anything red.

        I have made so many variations over the years. This time I went with some homemade taco seasoning, cumin, tajin and extra salt. I typically use peanut oil but use whatever you got with a high smoke point.
