Between CWD and "Decline," can't not be good! Oh, and that "ending a sentence with a preposition thing"--doesn't matter anymore in casual writing--like not using capital letters, or starting a sentence with "But" to make a point. I think it's a "Woke" thing. Nevertheless, I wish I weren't so woke and did not end that sentence with a preposition. It just feels wrong, now that you mentioned it.
I love you, and next time I will include my own footnotes minus the additional footnote commentary, and I will have one of the Brothers CWD explain to me how to add photos. I'll share the recipe for Hobo Chicken that seems to be one of everyone's favorites!!! ....Just remind me what was in it, other than chicken (dirt?), and how I made it.
As I recall: layer the bottom of an aluminum roasting pan with uncooked rice, roughly chopped onions, maybe some sliced potatoes, and boneless, skinless chicken breasts. Dump 3-4 cans of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup on top. Bake in the oven until chicken is cooked through; potatoes, al dente; rice and onions, hard as a rock.
Oh, in thinking--there were no potatoes at all in the Hobo Chicken. The rice was considered the starch. However, I did use celery, and sometimes tomatoes. I guess we'll discover what works best this summer. Plan on eating many versions of Hobo Chicken. I'm on a mission...
Ummm...that is NOT how I remember it at all. I never "dump" anything into anything when we are talking about food, first of all. "Pour" or "combine" (in some instances) is the more euphemistic term.
Secondly, I never used 3-4 cans of Campbell's Cream of Mushroom Soup in a recipe. I was lucky if I had one can available in the pantry--Campbell's Cream of Anything was, and still is, not one of my staples.
I seem to remember "quartered" onions, and also baby carrots, and I think I poured a stick or two of butter over the rice, before I "dumped" anything else in.
Yes, I'll admit--the rice was always "crispy," and the carrots were a little hard, and the potatoes just weren't that tasty, but the chicken was always good and cooked through (Is this ending a sentence with a preposition?).
Hobo Chicken is a very difficult recipe to master well. That is why on my next guest post I will present a very enticing recipe for Hobo Chicken...maybe even with photos if Brother #2 or Brother #3 will assist me, as I am going to work on perfecting it all summer, so you will have the opportunity to be part of the "Hobo Chicken Test Kitchen" journey. You and your CWD family should expect to each Hobo Chicken, in some way, shape, or form, every weekend!
Oh, and Roommate and Mrs. Roommate CWD--yes, real Coca Cola is used in the brisket recipe. It IS the tenderizing agent, and also adds some sweetness. I shall share the brisket recipe after I perfect the Hobo Chicken recipe.
Great post by Nana CWD! Mrs. Roommate CWD is going be on my case now for cream cheese in our mashed potatoes. And I remember the brisket quite fondly. I also remember a large amount of soda being involved (tenderizing agent?)…but can’t parse out how that worked. Recipe for the future !?!?
Best Post Ever!!
