Molasses

So traders came through your area and you scored some Molasses!!! Lucky You! Here's what you can do with it -

Put some on your biscuits instead of jam.
Use it on pancakes or waffles.
Baking cookies or a cake? Add some molasses!
Use some in your baked beans.
Rub it onto meat before cooking.

Buttermilk Biscuit Mix

We think the best way to eat these biscuits is topped with our Local Honey or Molasses!
But if you want a true Pioneer treat, drop the batter by small spoonfulls into some hot oil. Cook for about 1 minute on each side ('til lightly browned). Remove them from the oil and drain on clean paper towels. Then roll in cinnamon sugar.

These can be baked by dropping onto a baking sheet or roll 'em out and cut 'em into circles and bake.

Bean Soup Mix

This can be made as a soup or just a skillet dish. Or even top with grated cheese bake it in the oven after it’s cooked.
To make it more like a soup, add in a can of beef broth.

You can cook these beans with chicken, pork or beef. Why, you could probably even cook 'em with tofu!
Instead of using our spice packet that comes with the beans, use a couple of tablespoons of our Roy Rogers Chili Mix!
Slow Cooker Recipe -
Wash the beans. Put them into a slow cooker with 8 cups beef, chicken or veggie broth, 1 onion (chopped), the seasoning packet and some cooked sausage (or other meat).
Cook on high for about 8 hours.

You can also make this soup with chicken, turkey or any ground meat.
