Slow Cooker Pulled Buffalo Chicken Sandwiches
I have another Gameday recipe for you, and you should make it immediately. My husband is a buffalo wing connoisseur and these recieved his stamp of approval. My initial plan was to make these into sliders, but after not being able to find slider buns at 2 different stores I gave up since this would easily work with sandwiches. Where do you buy slider buns anyway?
Since these are made in the slow cooker they are so easy to make, just throw a few ingredients in the slow cooker and have a finished product 8 hours later. One word of advice I have is do not make these when you'll be home all day. I work from home on Friday's and it was torture smelling the buffalo chicken all day long and having to wait until dinner to gobble it up.
I tried not to make them too spicy since my husband can't handle the heat like I can, he's more of a mild wings type of guy. These still came out spicy, just not too spicy, but please adjust the sauce ingredients to fit your tastes. The blue cheese dip to spread on the sandwiches helped balance out the spice nicely. Since I wanted to mix both light and dark meat this recipe makes way too much chicken for just the two of us, but it would be good for a crowd and I'm excited to find uses for it in other dishes.

It's Football Season!
It's football season! That means it's one of my favorite times of year, I love lazy Saturdays and Sundays of watching football, snacking, and drinking bloody mary's and beer. Go Chiefs!, Go Jayhawk!, and Go Blitz Divas (my fantasy team)!
To kickoff the season I'll share this easy and tasty dip that my aunt made when we were out visiting last week. It doesn't look pretty, but trust me, it's good and perfect for Gameday.
Ingredients
1 lb ground turkey breakfast sausage
1 can Rotel
1 brick low fat cream cheese
Tortilla chips
Directions
Break apart and brown turkey in stove top pan over medium heat. Add cream cheese, stir until melted. Then add rotel and stir until combined. Use tortilla chips for dipping and enjoy!

Bret's BBQ Baby Back Ribs
Whenever we visit my brother and his wife in Virginia, two things are guaranteed, good meat and moonshine. So when we had a wings & ribs night on vacation, I knew my brother's ribs would not disappoint. The ribs were falling off the bone and you could taste the love he put into them; they were marinated overnight, braised in beer, and then smoked over wood chips. Below is a picture of them, post marination and pre-braising.
Say hi to Bret.
Say hi to the ribs.
