I love your New England Maple-BOURBON marinade. Definitely going to make it! A French friend who came to one THXGVG dinner at my place dumped huge quantity of bourbon into the gravy, much to my dismay....it was delish.
I love cranberry sauce made with nice red wine instead of water. Any suggestions for the best (inexpensive) wine to make cranberry sauch with?
Really? I just hired one for a school function I hosted and paid about $60.00 plus a nice tip.. It must be true, TEXAS is HEAVEN.. LOLOL
Any cheap Port, or Sherry, you can keep it a while and use it in so many other recipes.. :)
