SPRING HILL RANCH'S SLOPPY JOE AND SLOPPY JOSé
The only day of the week there was an even vaguely good reason to attend junior high school was Thursday, That's when they served sloppy Joes in the cafeteria! It wasn't 'til a few years ago that I found a recipe close to the one they used and with just a little adjustment it was spot-on! So then I couldn't leave well enough...

SPRING HILL RANCH'S HOUSE BARBECUE SAUCE
We found a barbecue sauce recipe said to be over 165 years old. After adjusting it with modern-day ingredients and just a little for our own tastes, we decided it was the best all-around sauce we've ever had and that it was more than worthy of the Spring Hill Ranch House Barbecue Sauce moniker. Visitors and summer residents here in the canyon often ask us to make a few quarts of it to take home for their friends. We have always held the recipe to be a secret, though, so don't tell anyone where you got it! Great on beef, chicken, pork, tractor tires, you name it!

Steps:
- In a medium pot over medium, heat up the lard. Add the grated onions, and cook them (stirring often) until softened and turning opaque, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook/stir until fragrant, about 1 more minute. Stir in the ketchup, Worcestershire sauce, lemon juice, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, yellow mustard, paprika, hot pepper sauce, salt, pepper and (if using) chile pequines.
- Stirring often, bring the pot to a boil over medium-high heat, then turn the heat down to low, cover the pot and, stirring often to prevent burning, barely simmer it for 20 minutes. Taste and adjust the vinegar, salt and black pepper if needed.
- Works best served hot. Store in airtight glass container in the refrigerator for up to two weeks.

Steps:
- Combine the meat drippings, ketchup, vinegar, bacon fat, hot sauce, and liquid smoke with ½ cup water in a large pot.

- Taste for seasoning, adding salt and pepper to taste.
- Let cool to room temperature, then refrigerate, covered, until serving; will keep for 3 days.
- Bring to room temperature or warm before using.
- Variation-to approximate the flavor that comes from pit smoking, there is liquid smoke in the recipe; as an alternative, you can put the pot in your smoker and cook it for several hours in the presence of hickory smoke.

SPRING HILL RANCH CENTRAL TEXAS BARBECUE SAUCE
If you spend much time in Texas, you will no doubt note that there is a great BBQ shack every quarter mile or so along the wonderful intra-state Texas highways. Of the many sauces around the state, this one is from the Hill Country of central Texas where beef and lamb are kings of the slow-smoking barbecue pit. Influenced by the hearty German pioneers of the area, this is a sweet, very savory tomato-based sauce. It adds a wonderful complexity to barbecued beef brisket and beef ribs and even lamb shanks. The sauce keeps well covered and refrigerated for at least a week.

SPRING HILL RANCH'S SOUTHWESTERN BEEF MARINADE 1
This is a wonderful chicana-style marinade that adds great southwestern flavor to steaks, stew meat, brisket, flank steaks or beef ribs. Coat the meat with the marinade and refrigerate it for at least a couple hours - overnight is fine. This recipe makes plenty to marinate 4 or 6 steaks, 3 or 4 pounds of stew-cut beef, or a good...

SPRING HILL RANCH'S JALAPEñO WHITE SAUCE
Everyone knows (or *should* know) that New Mexico is famous for its chile sauces...and that the official State Question really is "Do you want green or red?" Well, there is a third sauce, and we don't really advertise it much. It is called Terciopelo Jalapeño, or "Jalapeño Velvet." Pour some of this over your next plate of...

Steps:
- 1. In a heavy pan over high heat, heat the heavy cream until it is just ready to boil. Stir in the sour cream. Once the sour cream dissolves, reduce the heat to medium.
- 2. Stir in the chicken base and jalapeño juice and simmer.
- 3. Meanwhile, make a roux by warming the butter in a saucepan over medium heat, adding the flour, and mixing with a wire whisk until the mixture is smooth and pale gold.
- 4. Add the roux to the simmering cream mixture, whisking briskly and constantly until the roux is completely incorporated. Remove the pan from the heat and stir in the minced jalapeño and the cheeses.
SPRING HILL RANCH'S NEW MEXICO RED CHILE SAUCE
Here's the "red" half of the New Mexico State Question, "Red or Green?" As is usual, the red chile sauce has more spicy heat than the green, but the flavor of those red chiles is awesome indeed! Slather this on or under your huevos rancheros, enchiladas, dinner-sized burritos or other New Mexico inspired dish for a truly...

Steps:
- 1. In a heavy bottomed skillet over medium heat, heat the lard until it is shimmering but not yet smoking. Sauté the onion until it has softened and become translucent, about 4 minutes. Add the garlic and stir until it is nice and fragrant, about 1 minute. Add the flour. Stir gently but constantly until the roux reaches a medium brown ("peanut butter") color, about 2 minutes. Add the chile powder or chiles, garlic, chicken broth, oregano, salt and cumin (if using). Simmer, stirring constantly until the sauce has thickened. The sauce should coat the back of a spoon. Add a little water if needed for proper consistency. Blend or process if desired for a smoother texture.
- 2. Slather the hot (temperature-wise) sauce over or under your New Mexican or southwestern dishes. Kept in an air tight container, this should stay fresh for at least a week in the refrigerator.
SPRING HILL RANCH'S TEXAS BLACK JACK SAUCE
Also known as "Cattle Drive Sauce", this is another innovation from my neighbors to the east. By the late 1870's, condiments such as ketchup, Worcestershire sauce and vinegars were available in cans or bottles - a blessing to the chuckwagon cooks of the era. There'd be biscuits, beans and coffee for breakfast and then the...
