Cooking With Cents

Here locally we once had a Smokey Bones restaurant, but it closed. It was one of my husband's favorite places. They had lots of "man food" not so much light and green but heavy meaty and smokey. For his birthday he requested I make him the meal he normally would get at Smokey Bones. Pulled Pork, baked beans and a baked potato was his dinner tonight. Amazingly inexpensive and there is always enough for sandwiches later in the week. I spent 8.95 for a pork shoulder with my store card and I have enough to freeze for another meal even if we keep enough out for sandwiches.  It's nice that one of his favorites gives so much for so little.
