Best Frozen Uncle Sams Recipes

UNCLE SAM'S PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Place pork in a 6-quart slow cooker and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Top with onion then pour cola over meat. Cover and cook on high setting 6 to 6-1/2 hours, or until pork is very tender and falls apart easily.
• Remove pork to a large cutting board and shred with two forks. Using a slotted spoon, remove onion. Drain liquid from slow cooker, reserving 1 cup. Return meat to slow cooker, add reserved liquid, the barbecue sauce, and onion; mix well. Heat 20 minutes or keep on low until ready to serve.
• When ready to serve, in a medium bowl, combine coleslaw mix, vinegar, oil, and sugar; mix well. Spoon pork mixture evenly onto bottom of rolls, top with coleslaw and top of roll, and serve.

FROZEN UNCLE SAM'S

Steps:

• Place a scoop of vanilla ice cream on a plate and return it to the freezer to harden.
• Meanwhile, construct an Uncle Sam hat out of a wafer ice cream cone.
• Invert the cone so it's upside down.
• Use frosting to attach a blue band of fruit leather around the bottom of the cone. (Which is actually the top of the cone turned upside down).
• Squirt 6 vertical stripes of red decorating gel down the sides and blue gel on the top.
• Using a star tip, squirt on white frosting stars around the blue fruit leather, if desired.
• TIP: To avoid smudging the Uncle Sam hat design, hold the cone from the inside while decorating it with fruit leather and icing.
• Remove the ice cream-scoop "head" from the freezer and top with the Uncle Sam hat.
• Working quickly so the ice cream doesn't melt, add 2 blue M&M's eyes and a red M&M's nose. Finally, add a whipped cream beard.
• Serve up your Uncle Sam ice cream cone immediately; he goes over well at July 4th celebrations. Makes 1.

SAM'S FAMOUS CARROT CAKE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease and flour an 8x12 inch pan.
• In a medium bowl, sift together flour, baking soda, salt and cinnamon. Set aside.
• In a large bowl, combine eggs, buttermilk, oil, sugar and vanilla. Mix well. Add flour mixture and mix well.
• In a medium bowl, combine shredded carrots, coconut, walnuts, pineapple and raisins.
• Using a large wooden spoon or a very heavy whisk, add carrot mixture to batter and fold in well.
• Pour into prepared 8x12 inch pan, and bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for 1 hour. Check with toothpick.
• Allow to cool for at least 20 minutes before serving.

JOE'S SPECIAL

Steps:

• Crack the eggs into a small bowl and add the Tabasco, salt, basil, and pepper. Whisk just enough to combine; you should still see large bubbles. Set aside.
• Warm the oil and butter in a large skillet over medium heat until the butter melts. Add the onion and sauté until soft but not beginning to brown, about 4 minutes. Add the ground beef and continue cooking until uniformly brown, breaking the meat into small pieces as it cooks. Cover with the spinach, place a lid over the mixture, and cook for about 3 minutes, just until the spinach wilts. (If using frozen spinach, cook, covered, for 1 minute, just to take off its raw edge.)
• Stir the spinach into the meat, cooking briefly to eliminate excess liquid if the mixture seems watery. Pour the egg mixture over all, stirring with a spatula from the bottom until the eggs begin to set. Remove from the heat and stir a few more times, as the eggs cook through from the residual heat. Serve immediately.
