I really do love clam chowder!! Butter, bacon, cream, seasonings, clams? What’s not to love! I didn’t serve it in a bread bowl like you get in many places in San Francisco because I couldn’t find them. Instead I served in a bowl with oyster crackers. A loaf of french bread for sopping would be a great addition.
This beef stew over creamy polenta really is the best. I used short ribs that fell off the bone and their marbling just makes it delicious. The broth is rich mostly because of the short ribs. I use a chuck roast mostly which is very good too, but because I love short ribs so much it occurred to me that I should try this old fashioned beef stew I grew up with using short ribs. If you ever make a basic stew using short ribs, I think it will become your favorite.
Who doesn’t love Homemade Vegetable Beef Soup? Comfort food at it’s best! This soup is loaded with carrots, potatoes, tomatoes, rice macaroni, lentils, lima beans, corn and fresh spinach.

This Texas Brisket Chili has “No Beans”. That is because we don’t eat beans in our chili in Texas. Truth. We do like lots of toppings like cheese, onions, jalapenos, sometimes sour cream and even guacamole. So good!
