Welcome back everyone. We just got back
0:02
from HB. That's our local grocery store
0:05
and it is a Texas store.
0:09
We've got a big barbecue coming up this
0:12
weekend. It's just in a couple of days
0:14
and we're celebrating three birthdays, a
0:16
graduation, somebody moving out of
0:18
state. So, we just compiled everything
0:20
together and Thomas is going to be out
0:22
there grilling and I'm going to be
0:24
making sides and dessert and pull this
0:27
whole thing together. All right. If it's
0:30
not hot enough out there, you guys,
0:32
we're in southeast Texas, really close
0:34
to Houston, but about 60 minutes away
0:36
from the Gulf Coast, and it's feels like
0:40
100° here. I'm not kidding. That's the
0:42
real feel.
0:44
So, we've hit summer. So, I'm going to
0:46
start and go through everything and tell
0:48
you what we're going to need it for and
0:49
what we're making for the barbecue. All
0:52
right. I'm going to do this one here
0:54
really quick so we can get that one in
0:55
the refrigerator.
0:57
Anytime we kind of have a celebration,
0:59
we always have a fruit tray. So, we got
1:00
this one here. Thomas is happy because
1:04
we have watermelon in it.
1:06
>> I love watermelon.
1:07
>> Apple slices, pineapple, grapes, and I
1:10
believe that's mango down there. Mango
1:12
>> right there.
1:13
>> Yeah.
1:13
>> All right, I'll show you the price right
1:15
up here. All right, we're going to put
1:17
this one up. Can't do a barbecue without
1:19
potato salad. I am making my mom's
1:22
potato salad. You can find that recipe
1:24
on my recipe blog,
1:26
catherine'splates.com.
1:28
It is the basic potato salad, but is
1:31
really delicious. So, I picked up five
1:34
pounds of these red potatoes.
1:37
These are Northstar. They came from San
1:40
Antonio. That's where they're produced
1:42
or made.
1:48
And then,
1:50
well, this I just picked up because I
1:52
needed some in my refrigerator because I
1:54
like to eat turkey with cottage cheese,
1:57
cucumber slices, tomatoes, and crackers
1:59
or whatever else like that. This is
2:01
peppered turkey. Yum. Had to pick up
2:06
some pico cuz Thomas and I love that
2:08
with our eggs in the morning or if we
2:11
make tacos, we like it with that also.
2:14
Now, I picked up some Miracle Whip
2:18
because that is my mom's recipe for the
2:21
potato salad. She uses the Miracle Whip.
2:23
So, I've used like um mayonnaise, but
2:28
we're going to do this recipe right here
2:29
cuz she's coming to the barbecue. So,
2:32
I'm going to make her recipe.
2:34
I picked up a whole a can of whole green
2:37
beans because I'm making a green bean
2:39
recipe on how to turn canned green beans
2:42
into something delicious. That will be
2:45
coming up to y'all soon. Already had a
2:47
few cans in there, but I ate one. So, I
2:50
needed to update that.
2:55
Now,
2:57
I'm making desserts for this barbecue.
2:59
And Thomas ran across the bakery there
3:02
and found
3:03
these right here. These are double
3:07
chocolate chip muffins. 4C count. Can
3:10
y'all see those?
3:12
>> Here, Thomas.
3:13
>> He'll show you. Hold on. We'll uh pop
3:16
them out of here.
3:18
>> I'll give them a closeup.
3:19
>> Oh, they smell delicious.
3:22
>> I'll give them a closeup.
3:23
>> Look at how big those are.
3:26
See?
3:31
these will come over with me.
3:33
>> Yeah,
3:35
they're not for Saturday.
3:37
>> No,
3:38
>> but the cake that I'm making, I don't
3:41
know if it's going to feed enough
3:42
people, but we got some candied cookies
3:45
here. These are kind of like M&M
3:47
cookies, but they don't call them that.
3:48
They call them candy and chocolate chunk
3:51
cookies. And there's uh 18 cookies in
3:54
here. Here's the price right here. This
3:56
is from the bakery. Nice and fresh. Good
3:58
until next week, so it'll last.
4:02
All right, I'm going to make a quick
4:05
pasta salad.
4:07
So, I found these garden rotini.
4:11
Yeah, look at that. I love the I was
4:13
trying to find the colored pasta, so I
4:15
found these right here. This is the HB
4:17
brand
4:20
and 16 ounces. I should probably tell
4:22
y'all how much sizes of things are
4:26
now. Um, I picked up some evaporated
4:29
milk because I need that for the recipe
4:30
that I'm making for the cake that we're
4:32
all going to enjoy. And I'll talk about
4:34
that as soon as I get to those
4:35
ingredients. But this is kind of out of
4:37
package here. Right there. This is 12
4:41
fluid ounces evaporated milk. Then we
4:45
needed some pickle slices to go with the
4:47
hamburgers that we're going to be making
4:48
on Saturday. So, we found these HB
4:51
pickle me dilly hamburger dill chips.
4:56
But now these look really good. Be
4:59
really good on hamburgers. This is 16
5:01
fluid ounces. Can y'all see those?
5:04
Yum.
5:06
>> I'm not much of a pickle guy, but I'll
5:08
try those.
5:08
>> We'll try those. Yeah. Now, I picked up
5:11
some pans.
5:12
Um, this was the best deal that I found
5:15
there at that rack right there. So,
5:18
these are four these are 13 by9 cake
5:21
pans. We'll just wrap them up and then
5:23
Thomas can use these to put the
5:25
hamburgers on as he's cooking them and
5:27
the grilled onions and the sausages. And
5:29
since there's four, that's fine. We wrap
5:31
them up and then we can reuse them.
5:34
They do come with lids.
5:36
All right,
5:39
Thomas and I's favorite little nuggets.
5:44
This is just for us here. These are
5:47
wildly sweet special dark chocolate with
5:49
almonds. There's the price.
5:52
without almonds, which is what Thomas
5:54
likes. And I like them with almonds.
5:57
>> You know, sometimes you feel like a nut.
6:01
>> She feels like one all the time.
6:06
>> He's funny, huh? All right. Now, let's
6:09
talk about that cake that I'm going to
6:10
be making for the birthday bash. It is a
6:15
copycat kind of thing for a hostess
6:18
ding-dong. Okay. And it's in a cake
6:20
form. I've made this before for you guys
6:23
and it is really delicious. And you can
6:25
find that recipe on my recipe blog,
6:28
katherine'splates.com.
6:30
Dingdong cake. It's three layers. It's
6:33
really delicious. It's really easy
6:35
because we're going to be using boxed
6:36
cake mix for one layer. Now, this is the
6:40
dark chocolate fudge
6:42
>> and it's a 15 oz box.
6:44
>> Yep.
6:46
And then we got some chocolate frosting
6:48
that we're going to be doing something
6:50
with to top this with. And this is the
6:54
chocolate fudge, which is 16 oz. And
6:58
that's where the evaporated milk comes
7:00
into it. It'll be with other ingredients
7:04
for the middle part of the cake. Anyway,
7:06
y'all, if you've never had the Ding-Dong
7:08
cake or never seen me make it, go check
7:10
it out. Go check it out. It is a really
7:13
delicious cake. and my brother, his
7:16
wife, and Elliot, which is Donald,
7:19
Donna, and Elliot. Their birthdays are
7:21
coming up. So, we're doing a big bash
7:24
celebration of that. So, they always
7:27
request my ding-dong cake for that. So,
7:31
and since we've got a lot more people
7:33
coming over, that's why the cookies.
7:36
>> Yeah,
7:37
>> we need some more desserts. I might make
7:39
something else, too. We'll see how busy
7:41
I am. All right, we picked up some Grill
7:44
Mates Montreal steak seasoning. We love
7:48
this. Love it. Love it. Love it. When we
7:50
sprinkle this on the hamburgers before
7:51
they go on the grill, so delicious. And
7:55
this is a 3 oz little container of it.
8:00
And um we do the Montreal hamburger one,
8:03
too. And what's funny is we like that
8:04
one on steaks, so we switch them.
8:08
Yes, that's how it is here. All right.
8:11
For the ding-dong cake, you also need
8:14
some Crisco shortening. And since I
8:17
haven't used Crisco shortening in a very
8:18
long time, I had to pick up a few sticks
8:20
of it. And this was easy. Just two
8:22
sticks of the Crisco all vegetable
8:24
shortening for baking and frying. So,
8:27
it's just two sticks. There's the price.
8:31
All right. And then the teas were buy
8:35
one get one free. So, we picked up a
8:38
sixpack of the What is this? unsweetened
8:41
right here. This is the pure leaf, no
8:44
sugar, and there's six bottles right
8:47
here of these, which are the 16 oz,
8:50
fluid ounces for each bottle. And then
8:52
we picked up two of the sweet teas. And
8:55
remember, we got one free and one that
8:58
we paid the price for. All right, I'm
9:01
going to clear this off. Bring more up
9:02
here, you guys. Now, I bought some extra
9:05
eggs for the potato salad and some for
9:09
the pasta salad. And whatever's left
9:12
after I boil these 12 up will go as
9:15
deiled eggs. And they'll go quick, also.
9:19
Devild eggs.
9:22
They're the quickest thing out of here,
9:23
let me tell you. All right, I picked up
9:25
two things of sliced cheese. I got the
9:28
American slices.
9:30
This is the craft and there's 16 slices
9:32
in there. So, if people like that or if
9:35
people like the cheddar cheese, I got
9:38
these slices. There's 11 slices in here
9:41
by Sarento.
9:46
And we picked up some sausages to grill
9:48
out there.
9:51
These were on sale, too. I think buy one
9:54
get one free on these. These are the HB
9:57
premium smoked sausages. There are five
10:00
in a pack. One is mosquite and then I
10:04
picked up a cheese.
10:07
Thomas is like, "It's upside down." was.
10:11
And then for Thomas and I, we found this
10:13
right here.
10:15
This is the HB Texas Heritage smoked
10:18
sausage with Texas pecan wood. And it's
10:20
a beef brisket
10:24
smoked sausage. So, we're excited to try
10:26
that.
10:28
We may do another stir fry with it
10:29
because we really enjoyed that one that
10:31
we did
10:32
>> with the uh ramen and smoked kilbasa.
10:35
Did y'all see that one yet?
10:38
Y'all haven't seen that recipe yet? Oh
10:40
my gosh, that video is coming out either
10:41
after this one or before this. So, go
10:43
check it out. Oh, okay. We talked about
10:46
the eggs and then we're going to talk
10:48
about the hamburgers.
10:51
These were $11 a pack and we got three
10:54
packs of these were ground sirloin HB
10:57
100% pure no additives. There's four of
11:01
them in each pack and they're 13 pound
11:04
beef burgers. So we got one, two, and
11:08
three right there. So these are like
11:11
really easy to throw onto the grill and
11:13
sprinkle some of that Montreal steak
11:15
seasoning on, hamburger seasoning on.
11:17
They're really good.
11:19
All right. And then my sister-in-law,
11:23
Donna, whose birthday is coming up and
11:25
we're going to be celebrating on
11:26
Saturday with that
11:28
barbecue bash out there, gave me a
11:30
recipe for orange bars. And oh my gosh,
11:33
you guys, those look so delicious. And
11:35
what's great about it is that we're
11:37
going to be making that with shortbread
11:39
cookies as the crust.
11:42
So, I got two packages here. Nothing
11:44
wrong with having a little extra in the
11:46
house, right?
11:48
with me around.
11:48
>> Yeah, I love shortbread cookies, too.
11:52
And then we needed to pick up. So, these
11:54
are the Keebler Sandies shortbread
11:57
classic and they're 11 oz for each pack
12:00
right here. Then I picked up some orange
12:03
Jell-O that's going to go with this
12:04
recipe and it was the 3 oz, just the
12:08
orange. And then we picked up three, no,
12:11
I say three. We picked up two cans of
12:14
the mandarin oranges, which will be part
12:16
of that recipe. Now, the recipe also
12:18
calls for cream cheese and um heavy
12:21
whipping cream, but already had those
12:23
two in the refrigerator, so I don't have
12:24
to worry about that. And I think cool
12:26
whip, we got them. So, anyway, there we
12:28
go. Two cans of these, which were 15
12:31
ounces each can.
12:34
I know y'all like to see prices and
12:36
judge in your area. Just remember that
12:38
we're in Katy, Texas, right outside of
12:41
Houston. So, in our local HV store, I
12:45
got more stuff coming. Let's bring it on
12:47
up. Tom's got a coconut.
12:50
>> Yeah.
12:52
>> Here's the price for it. We're going to
12:54
We're going to try it out. We've never
12:55
done a real coconut before in the house,
12:57
have we?
12:58
>> No.
12:58
>> No. So, we're going to try this out.
13:01
Montoaro Farms Natural Best coconut.
13:04
What do y'all think? Y'all ever tried a
13:05
coconut before?
13:07
All right. Let us know. I picked up a a
13:10
little sample of yogurt. I wanted to
13:12
give this one a try. This is Icelandic
13:15
Provisions plain Sky yogurt. So, I was
13:18
going to give that a try. This is 17
13:21
grams of protein and it's 5.3 oz. So,
13:25
they had a lot of flavors, too. But, I
13:27
like to take plain yogurt and squeeze a
13:29
little bit of orange juice into it or
13:31
smush up some blueberries or
13:32
strawberries and just add my own natural
13:34
ingredients to it to the natural. All
13:38
right, we got a big old gigantic yellow
13:40
onion right here because I'm going to be
13:43
grilling this. Well, really, it's just
13:44
going to be in a pan with some butter,
13:46
salt, and pepper because people love to
13:48
have their grilled onions on top of
13:49
their burger. My mom being one, as
13:54
she was wondering if we were going to do
13:55
this. I'm like, of course.
13:57
>> Yeah. Well, you know what? Um, they had
14:00
the bag of yellow onions, but when I was
14:02
picking them up, it I think there was
14:03
gnats flying out of them. I wasn't sure.
14:06
So, I was like, "Well, let me just get a
14:08
big one that was right next to them and
14:09
you know, you can just pick one out."
14:11
So, I don't want to bring those kind of
14:13
things home because it's hard to get out
14:15
of your house once you get them in here.
14:17
Not even sure they're nats or just fruit
14:18
flies. What do y'all think?
14:20
>> I think they're fruit flies.
14:21
>> Fruit flies. Yeah. And we picked up some
14:24
cinnamon sticks um last week and they
14:27
say if you put those near your fruit
14:28
bowls in your house when you have them
14:30
in your kitchen, it detracts those fruit
14:33
flies. So, we're going to be trying
14:35
that. This right here smells so good.
14:37
I'm pulling it out of the bag and I'm
14:39
like, "Oh my gosh, they smell so good."
14:41
Of course, I walked by the freezer with
14:42
all the little meatballs. And this is
14:44
beef and pork, fully cooked meatballs,
14:46
homestyle. And the ingredients look
14:48
really good on the back. Here we go. And
14:53
14 oz. Yum. That looks really good.
15:00
All right. Can't do a barbecue without
15:02
baked beans. Not here, anyway. I've got
15:05
two big cans
15:08
of Bush's best brown sugar hickory baked
15:12
beans. I'm going to throw these into a
15:15
cast iron skillet with some ketchup,
15:17
mustard, and well, I was going to put
15:19
brown sugar in there, but maybe a little
15:20
bit more. Some black pepper. Mix that up
15:22
and just let it simmer in the oven while
15:24
other things are happening. People will
15:26
love these. Now, these are 28 o each
15:31
can. So, we got a lot of people coming
15:34
over. So, plus they make good leftovers
15:37
anyway. So,
15:38
>> I got 10 maybe 11
15:40
>> 11 people coming over. Yeah. So,
15:44
all right. The next thing we picked up
15:45
were some hamburger buns and hot dog
15:48
buns. Now, these were buy one get one
15:50
free, so we had to get them. These are
15:51
the Nature's Own butter buns. Look at
15:55
these, y'all.
15:57
And then, so that was butter buns. These
15:59
were the hamburger buns. They come eight
16:02
in a pack.
16:05
And let me get the other hamburger buns
16:07
out. Put them all together so you know.
16:09
And then I picked up the same ones, but
16:11
these are the brios style.
16:15
And then these look really cool because
16:18
they're uh crafted. They say perfectly
16:21
crafted. So they they have the lines on
16:24
them. So they look they look fresh,
16:28
right?
16:29
And then we picked up the hot dog buns
16:32
by Nature's own. These were buy one get
16:34
one free. Also, am I sweating over here?
16:37
It was hot, y'all. Oh my gosh, it was
16:40
hot. Okay, so these are simply no
16:44
artificial preservatives, colors, or
16:46
flavors. No high fructose corn syrup in
16:49
these also. So, and I again I got the
16:52
butter buns and butter buns. Okay. I
16:57
thought maybe one was bio, but I guess
16:58
not. So, we got those and then I picked
17:02
up these for myself. Now, generally, we
17:06
pick up the Dave's ones and they have a
17:10
lot of seeds and, you know, good stuff
17:12
in them. So, these are the sourdough
17:15
English muffins by Tom by Thomas' here.
17:19
And um the ones that we usually get when
17:21
we pulled it off the thing and I it was
17:23
missing one and the dates was like in
17:26
two days. I can't eat that many English
17:28
muffins in two days. So we got these and
17:30
these will these have a whole week on
17:32
them. So that's good.
17:34
And then see what else we got. Lettuce.
17:38
Got to have lettuce for the hamburgers.
17:39
Right. So I got the Roma right here.
17:42
We'll do the Roma instead of the
17:44
iceberg.
17:46
Anyway, that the Roma looked really
17:47
good, didn't it? That looked good. A
17:50
good price, too.
17:52
And then I picked up Oh, yeah.
17:57
We needed some kiwis. I like to add
17:59
kiwis to my breakfast,
18:02
lunch, dinner, whatever. But I love
18:04
kiwis.
18:07
And then we have some tomatoes. These
18:11
are tomatoes on the vine.
18:15
Look at those. We never go wrong with
18:17
tomatoes on the vine. So, I'll slice up
18:19
some of these for the burgers on
18:20
Saturday and then some of them will stay
18:21
with us and we'll be making sandwiches
18:23
with them. All right, you guys. I kind
18:27
of ran through that pretty fast. We're
