FAMILY FEATURES

A

Barbecue Benedict Makes: 6 servings Prep time: 45 minutes Cook time: 7 minutes

1 white onion cut into 1/2-inchthick strips Onion Marinade Barbecue Benedict Sauce 3 English muffins cut in half 1 pound leftover beef brisket 6 poached eggs

Onion Marinade: 9 tablespoons soy sauce 3 tablespoons lemon juice 6 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil 6 tablespoons water 6 teaspoons dark brown sugar 3/4 teaspoon garlic powder 3/4 teaspoon black pepper Barbecue Benedict Sauce: 3 egg yolks 1 teaspoon vinegar 1 teaspoon water 1 cup butter, melted 1/4 teaspoon salt Pinch of cayenne pepper 3 tablespoons of your favorite KC Masterpiece barbecue sauce

In small bowl, mix onion marinade ingredients. Pour marinade into resealable plastic bag and add onion strips. Let marinate for 30 minutes.

For sauce, place egg yolks, vinegar and water into stainless steel bowl and vigorously whip until mixture is thickened and doubled in volume. Place bowl over sauce pan containing barely simmering water (just below boil), making sure bottom of bowl does not touch water. Whisk continuously, making sure eggs don’t get too hot or they will scramble. Very slowly drizzle melted butter into mixture while whisking rapidly until mixture thickens and doubles in volume. Remove from heat and stir in remaining sauce ingredients.

Build charcoal fire for direct grilling. Place onion strips in grill basket and cook directly over hot coals (approximately 450°F), stirring often for 5 minutes or until onions brown and start to soften. Remove onions from grill and set aside.

Place English muffin halves directly over hot coals for 2 minutes or until toasted. Remove each from grill and top with leftover beef brisket, grilled onions and a poached egg. Drizzle with Barbecue Benedict Sauce.

Barbecue Beef Brisket

lthough brisket is generally regarded as a cool weather dish, you may be surprised how this ultimate comfort food works in delicious recipes that help you hang on to the fading days of summer.

A traditional Barbecued Beef Brisket prepared low and slow over a charcoal grill is sure to be a crowd pleaser for a backyard tailgate or a casual gathering with friends. Leftovers can help warm up a cool morning with a decadent serving of Barbecue Benedict, and you can look forward to a Grilled Greek Salad Pita with Beef Brisket for a tasty midday meal.

As any grill master knows, achieving grilling greatness begins with a charcoal fire. These recipes, created by world champion pitmaster Chris Lilly, showcase how Kingsford® Charcoal can help you achieve an authentic smoky flavor that will delight the taste buds of your family and friends. Each briquet contains natural ingredients and real wood for a delicious cookout every time.

Find more recipes featuring your favorite grilled meats at www.kingsford.com.

Makes: 8-10 servings Prep time: 30 minutes Cook time: 5-6 hours

1 beef brisket flat (5-6 pounds) 1 tablespoon beef bouillon base Dry Rub 1 cup beef broth

Dry Rub: 1/2 1/2 1/2 1/2 3/4 1/2 1/4 1/8

tablespoon salt tablespoon paprika tablespoon black pepper tablespoon sugar teaspoon garlic powder teaspoon onion powder teaspoon oregano teaspoon ground coriander

Build a charcoal fire with Kingsford charcoal for indirect cooking by situating coals on only one side of grill, leaving other side void.

Cover entire brisket with beef bouillon base. In small bowl, mix dry rub ingredients and coat brisket with rub.

When cooker reaches 225°F, place brisket on void side of grill and close lid. Cook for 4 hours, until internal temperature reaches 160-170°F. Remove brisket from grill and place in shallow baking dish or disposable aluminum pan. Pour beef broth over brisket and cover pan with aluminum foil. Place baking dish in cooker for an additional 1-2 hours, until internal temperature reaches 185°F. Remove baking dish from grill and let meat rest undisturbed for 20-30 minutes. Slice brisket across grain and serve.

FAMILY FEATURES

o matter where you turn, pattern inspiration is all around you – from modern architecture and traditional flooring to animal furs, floral arrangements and fashion runways. As homeowners and designers look to personalize spaces and create impactful interiors, patterns are being replicated with paint on walls, floors, furniture and more.

“Pattern always catches my eye and is my go-to element for adding something special to a space,” said Grace Bonney, design expert, founder of Design*Sponge and author of the best-selling book “Design*Sponge at Home.”

“For me, a pattern is almost always greater than the sum of its parts,” Bonney said. “Beautiful paint colors combine with brilliant linework to create something simple or so over-the-top that it can transform a room instantly.”

ScotchBlue Brand partnered with Patternbank, experts in modern style and design, to analyze the world of pattern and forecast five up-and-coming trends that can help take your home from boring to beautiful by adding depth, color and personality.

n Striking Linework – The once simple stripe has found new life with a bold, modern twist. Sharp angles and a fractured, abstract look bring dimension to the standard stripe, and add strong visual impact to even the most awkward spaces around the home. Consider using neutral paint colors for more traditional and elegant looks or brighter colors to infuse energy into the space.

n Mod Optic – Bold geometric designs are making their way into home decor with subtle shifts in scale and color. These strong three-dimensional patterns create a clean, modern style that communicates sophistication and audacity. Infuse contrast and depth to create a clean, modern backdrop for existing decor. The pattern allows 12 HOMES of El Paso / September 2015

you to play with a combination of light and dark colors as a way to add different levels of drama based on the space.

n Geo Elemental – From north and south to east and west, global influences can be seen in architecture, interior design and on the fashion runways. Merging traditional shapes such as zigzags and diamonds with various color treatments adds a modern feel to deep-rooted tradition, creating a meeting point for contemporary and universal. The lively repetition of eye-catching, sharp lines is ideal for spaces that draw attention in one direction and evoke a strong sense of place. Using earth tones and natural colors add to the global feel of the pattern, while cool neutral colors provide a calming aura.

n ’70s Revival – With retro trends making a comeback in both fashion and design, modernizing retrothemed patterns energizes the home and carries a whimsical accent throughout the space. Give a nod to the stylish looks of the ’70s by building on lavish shapes with modern styling and fresh forms. The combination of high-contrast colors and the big impact of the pattern help make the space feel dynamic and lively.

n Found Fragments – Layering pattern on pattern gives you the creative license to have fun experimenting and showcasing your personal style. With clean lines or shapes juxtaposed against existing prints and designs, this pattern keeps your space down-to-earth while still being on trend. Diversify existing decor elements by layering multiple patterns and mediums to adapt any space to match your changing styles.

A Smooth Way to Add Fruits & Veggies

Today’s nutritional guidelines recommend that children consume at least five servings per day of fresh fruits and vegetables. Yet the reality is many parents struggle with getting their kids to eat healthier, especially during the school year. The good news is, with very little preparation you can serve healthy, grab-and-go meals that are not only nutrient-rich, they’re vegetarian friendly and delicious. With meals like this, your kids might actually want seconds. Try this quick, refreshing recipe for a breakfast or after school snack option. If you’re feeling inspired, create your own butter lettuce recipe — it might be worth a $1,000.

Learn how at www.lettucerecipecontest.com.

Butter Lettuce Papaya Smoothie

1/2 papaya, peeled (plus slices from remaining half for garnish) 1/2 teaspoon finely chopped fresh cilantro 1/2 teaspoon grated fresh ginger root 2 tablespoons honey 1 head Live Gourmet® Living Butter Lettuce (chopped, cleaned and root removed) 1 cup almond milk 1/4 cup water 1 lime, peeled Apple and/or pear slices for garnish (optional) Using a traditional, compact or hand blender, mix all ingredients for 30 seconds or until smooth. Garnish with slices of papaya and apple or pear, if desired.

by Villa de Patos, is an unrefined and unprocessed alternative sweetener with unique flavor and tons of versatility in baked goods, marinades, dairy products, beverages and more. Buy a bottle of Maguey Sap, check out additional recipes and learn more at www.villadepatos-us.com.

Maguey Sap Glazed Bacon

Yield: 8 slices Prep time: 5 minutes Cook time: 25 minutes 8 slices hickory smoked bacon 4 tablespoons Maguey Sap Heat oven to 400°F. On foil-lined rimmed baking sheet, arrange bacon in single layer (use baking rack for crispier bacon). Bake until fat is rendered and bacon is beginning to brown, about 15-18 minutes.

Remove from oven and brush one side with Maguey Sap. Bake another 3-5 minutes, or until coated side of bacon is browned.

Remove from oven and flip each piece using tongs. Brush second side with Maguey Sap. Bake another 3-5 minutes, or until browned.

Drain away grease and allow bacon to rest 5 minutes. Serve warm and enjoy with your favorite pancakes.

FAMILY FEATURES

From Seed to Snack

Popcorn, like all six types of corn, is a cereal grain. It resembles corn on the cob in appearance and cultivation, but only pop-corn kernels have the ability to pop. Most of the world’s popcorn is grown in the central United States.

Popcorn is usually harvested with a combine, which strips the ear from the stalk and shells the kernels from the cob.

The kernels are then loaded into a truck and transported to a storage bin for drying. Then, after cleaning and sorting, kernels are packaged for distribution, allowing Americans to consume more than 16 billion quarts of popped popcorn each year.

Marmalade Popcorn Balls

Yield: 15 balls 1 1/2 cups sugar 1 1/4 cups water 1 cup orange marmalade 1/2 teaspoon salt 1/2 cup light corn syrup 1 teaspoon vinegar 5 quarts popped popcorn In saucepan combine sugar, water, marmalade, salt, light corn syrup and vinegar. Bring to boil, stirring until sugar dissolves. Cook to hard-ball stage (250°F).

Pour slowly over popped popcorn and mix thoroughly. Butter hands and shape into 2 1/2-inch balls.

Nutty ’n’ Natural Popcorn

Yield: 3 quarts 2 tablespoons sunflower seed kernels, finely ground 2 tablespoons almonds, finely ground 2 tablespoons walnuts or hazelnuts, finely ground 4-6 tablespoons melted margarine or butter 2 1/2 quarts popped popcorn 2 tablespoons wheat germ 1 6-ounce package (1 2/3 cups) chopped dried fruits and raisins Pour melted margarine over popcorn.

Sprinkle with ground nuts and wheat germ; toss to mix. Stir in dried fruits.

ake your next friendly gathering a popping success with desserts and snacks made from a wholesome simple grain. Not only does popcorn bring out the kid in everyone, it’s a naturally healthy treat you can feel good about serving your guests. And, because it’s naturally low in fat and calories, non-GMO and gluten free, you can rest assured that party-goers will keep popping back by for one more guilt-free bite.

What’s more, freshly popped corn makes it easy to tickle all your guests’ taste bud cravings. Salty, spicy, sweet — the options are nearly endless. Serve it up with flavors already mixed in, or let guests mix and match their own favorite toppings to create unique tastes of popcorn perfection.

These recipes make it easy to prepare crowd-pleasers for all ages ahead of time so you can focus on the fun. Find more festive popcorn recipes to help plan your next party at www.popcorn.org.

In medium saucepan, combine granulated sugar, butter and corn syrup. Bring to boil over medium heat, stirring constantly. Clip on candy thermometer and boil, stirring occasionally, until temperature reaches 290°F (about 15 minutes). Remove candy thermometer and stir in vanilla. Pour mixture over popcorn and stir to coat well.

Spread popcorn mixture in even layer on prepared baking pan. Sprinkle with sea salt and allow to cool completely before breaking into pieces to serve.

Store in an airtight container.

A DIY Dessert that Pops

A popcorn bar is a fun and easy way to have guests take an active role in the party. Provide a wide range of toppings and watch them get creative dreaming up delicious flavor combinations. You can even host a taste test and award prizes to the tastiest concoctions.

Simply set out a large bowl of popcorn and surround it with smaller bowls with various popcorn fixings. Let each person fill a paper bag or other container with popcorn and top or mix with their desired flavorings.
