[@kkaucher]

1. Water is tasteless. Always use broth or bouillon when possible. The difference in taste is incredible. 2. The chub of ground beef is $4.70/lb for 90/10. In Greater Cincinnati, Kroger sells 3- and 5-lb chubs for $5/lb for 80/20. I'll take Costco any day!

[@RowesRising]

Thank you for sharing your burger pricing!! I have always made my own broths for the last decade- I was definitely looking for a little kitchen helper for the times the food needs a boost. It’s been great so far!

[@dalecarney2581]

Yep it cool to be stocked up ,you never know what going to happen next week,I got all preps full ready for anything

[@lynnloehr1566]

I add Better than Bullion to the water I cook rice in, to soup, to gravy, to stir fries, it just adds a depth of flavor. I do bake my potatoes in the crock pot, but it only takes about three hours, I think overnight would be to long.

[@RowesRising]

Thank you for the tips!!

[@penelopepittstopP]

I have never heard of baking taters in a crock pot or instant pot! Interesting!!!! Does the skin get crispy?

[@RowesRising]

@penelopepittstopP no the skin does not crisp… you have to add a bit of water in the bottom and the potatoes go on a grate above the water. They pressure steam. But I then use those potatoes after refrigeration for a night to make hash browns or twice baked potatoes and that crisps them up nicely!! And they cook so much faster!!

[@mkcynthia]

I use better than bouillon for anything I want to add flavor to. Soups, stocks, pasta dishes, rice, stir fry’s. Just add it a little at a time because it will oversalt your dish. You can always add more but can’t take it out.

[@RowesRising]

Thanks for the tips!! Just used some in the beef stew and to can some of the ground beef!!

[@jenmv3483]

I've always used it in soups. But I never thought of trying it in stir fry and pasta, thanks for tip Cynthia

[@bubbles__61104]

Back in the day we did this too but we lived out in nowhere so if we got a good snow it could take them a month to get to us. We did it on a much bigger scale. We where feeding 12. So good for you stocking up.

[@RowesRising]

Thank you Bubbles!! We have steadily worked over the past decade to build a long term food pantry we rotate through. It’s a blessing to have “just in case”.

Easy delicious crockpot beef roast- put roast in slow cooker, cover the top with Better Than Beef Bouillon. Sprinkle ranch dressing powder over top and lay a few pats of butter over all. Add a little water to the pot and cook on low 8-10 hrs. So yummy, and so easy!

[@RowesRising]

That is a good recipe! We make Mississippi pot roast which is similar 😋

[@susanstrange3436]

Potato's cooked in the airfryer are awesome. I wash them dry them and rub olive oil on each one, then I sprinkle salt on each one and cook them. It takes about 35 minutes. I cooked 3 to four at a time.

That’s a great way to cook them quick!

Boulion for stew, soup and sauté use about a teaspoon use light because it contains sodium

I live in Maine so I understand winter weather. No need to risk your lives getting groceries so it was good idea to stock up. I live in the city now but I made sure to have a refrigerator freezer filled with meat, stocked up on canned goods, toilet tissue, personal care items so I will not have to drag heavy grocery bags through snow banks. Never apologize for getting some convenience foods we all days it is better to use convenience than to not eat.

Love shopping at Costco! Your haul is fantastic! Wool socks are the best! I almost got the bacon bits, almond butter and a few other items. I also got the protein powder (I put a scoop in my oatmeal) , Orgain protein powder was $8 off, so instead of $34, it was $26, paper towels and was tempted by the beef stew meat deal. I got a kitchen mat that feels like a cloud that was only $14. I did get coconut oil for cooking (dairy allergy) and healing scrapes on skin, 8# of fresh chicken drumsticks for $0.99/pound and a $5 rotisserie cooked chicken (chicken meat for sandwiches, quick soups & bones for bone broth), olive oil, big bag chia seeds $8.70, canned tuna, corn for my pantry, slivered almonds for $7, Folger's coffee, dill pickles, olives, vanilla, 48 oz minced garlic which I will freeze in ice cube tray & bag for easy storage in my freezer. You got like, about 1.5 pounds of "free" hamburger buying it that way at $7 under the prepackaged kind. Higher quality which is great! I paid over $5 per pound at Aldi the other day. I'll look for your recipe for the protein powder snack bites. I enjoy learning from others and just found your channel. I love my Food Saver machine and portioned off a 10# bag of jasmine rice this morning. Thank you for sharing your hauls and food storage methods!

[@RowesRising]

Hi Linda, thank you for sharing the sweet story of your mom’s love of Costco trips. I’ll be thinking of you as the one year memorial passes. I think it’s incredible she lived double the age of my late mother. I saw two elderly ladies there yesterday- the younger let me go ahead of her down an isle and when I looked behind her- a lady with a walker was slowly strolling and browsing. It was so sweet to see- in the rush of it all on a busy Sunday, she was enjoying her stroll and he had her protective and patient daughter there to guide her safely around. I really miss my mom. Just had my 41st birthday- it’s painful without her. My mother in law passed a few years ago- she was like a mother to me. It’s been a bit lonely without her daily calls to chat with the kids. Grief is love with nowhere to go. Sending you some big ((hugs))🌻🌻🌻

[@icur]

I like the Better than Bouillon when you make rice, instead of plain water add 2/3 stock, broth, etc., the rest use water, if you use 100 broth it will taste too strong, also a must is to use broth when making stuffing mix, use only 1/3 of the butter called for, use 100% light broth where it calls for water. That salami you bought, salami has allot of fat and once opened it will go rancid withing 3-6 days, for any thin cut salami I always put in freezer and leave in freezer, when you make a sandwich it will peel apart frozen and thaw out within 4 to 5 minutes and taste fresh all the time. Pre-cut salami should NOT be frigerated, just leave frozen to keep fresh.
