EXPERT TIPS

Expert Tips

Buy a block of Cheddar cheese when it's on sale; shred and store, tightly sealed, in the freezer. It will be handy whenever you need it for a recipe.

Store-bought beef broth can be overly salty. Always look for the reduced-sodium varieties.

No one in my family did cared for this recipe. It was very easy to make, but the taste of it was not that great. I do wonder if it was the type of bbq sauce that I used, since the recipe doesn't say what kind or type to use.
