Subject: Sour Cream Rabbit
Several yr. Ago I found a recipe on the back cover of a field&stream or similar tipe mag.
It was an ad for a marlin 22 cal. Rifle. It had rabbit,tomato paste, onions and sour
cream along with other ingr. The rabbit was browned,removed then added later with the
other ingr. Sour cream was last in to make a rich gravy
Thanks Tom

Subject: Grandparents Old Recipe - Can you help
Good Morning,
I checked the search the site feature first and could not find the recipe. Maybe you can help.
My great grandmother made this slow cook recipe that called for pork backbone or neckbone???
and sauerkraut. The dish was simple and may have only included one more main ingredient like
potatoes I think. Anyway, I just don't know how to prepare it or what to season it with or how
long to let it cook. Sometimes I think my grandmother made the same recipe using pork short ribs.
I know it cooked in a big pot for a long time???
Any help or insight is greatly appreciated.
Thanks, Sasha
Hello Sasha,
Well, I didn't find recipes that called for neckbones or backbone, but that's not surprising. The recipe is still made, but over the years,
people have moved to better cuts of pork. Nowadays they use ribs or pork chops or even better cuts. There are dozens of recipes. Below is a sample.

Pork And Sauerkraut (Crockpot)
Ingredients :
3 or 4 pork chops
3 thinly sliced potatoes
1 sm. onion, chopped
Salt and pepper
1 (16 oz.) can sauerkraut

Layer sliced potatoes and onion in crockpot. Pour sauerkraut
over potatoes and onion. Place pork chops on top of mixture and
season with salt and pepper. Cook on low 8 to 10 hours.

Pork And Sauerkraut Bake

4-5 pork chops or 2-3 lb. pork roast or pork steak
Cooking oil
2 lg. onions

1/4 c. brown sugar
2 tsp. or more caraway seeds
Salt & pepper to taste
Preparation :
If using a pork roast, cook it by itself at 350 degrees for an
hour before adding other ingredients. If using chops or steak,
brown briefly in a little oil Peel and slice the onions. Core and
slice the apples (peel or wash well if skin left on). Slice the
potatoes (leave the skins on if you like, but wash well). Put half
of the sauerkraut in a greased 9"x13" pan or 2 quart casserole and
add a little brown sugar and caraway; top with (in order, and adding
a little brown sugar and caraway after each layer) the onions,
apples, potatoes, the rest of the sauerkraut and finally the chops.
Sprinkle remaining brown sugar and caraway on top. Cover with foil
and bake about 1/2 hour at 350 degrees, then remove cover and bake
another 30 to 45 minutes, until potatoes are done. (If using pork
roast, after baking it 1 hour, add remaining ingredients and bake it
so that the total cooking time amounts to 30 minutes per pound.) If
you like, you can cook all the ingredients in an electric slow
cooker. Before serving, transfer to a 9"x13" pan and bake for 30
minutes, uncovered.

Hello Gene,
I need the publication date of the cookbook. This helps me to locate
information in the search engines. I also need the exact title. Betty
Crocker has published several "_ for Two" cookbooks.
For example only:
In 1958, Betty Crocker issued "Dinner for Two" in a spiral binder with a
blue cover.
On E-bay, I found 17 copies of "Dinner for Two" for sale, six of which were
from 1958. It was re-issued in 1964, 1973 and more recent years. At least
one edition had a red cover.
Of those six 1958 copies, five claim to be 1st editions. Only one mentioned
the printing, and it was a 6th printing. The opening bids on these five
ranged from $2.00 to $25.00, but no one had bid on any of them. That tells
me that this particular book is not very rare. A certified first edition,
first printing of this one in excellent condition might be worth $25 to $50
to a collector.
Send me the above information on the one that you have and I'll try to give
you a similar idea of it's value.

Hi....I have the starter set (clear tinted box, 30 header cards, with 5-6 sub-cards in
each header category) total about 150 cards. Do you know where I can buy the rest of
the collection? Thanks.
Hello Rita,
There's a set of 800 cards for sale on E-bay for $9.99. See:
E-Bay
or go to the E-bay front page and type - my great recipes - in the search box
You have to be careful, though that this is the set you want. There were at least two sets, maybe three, and each set had different recipe cards.
One was printed in the U.S., one in Holland, and I dunno about the third one.
