Ah, the unassuming envelope of onion soup mix. It's more than just for onion soup (or dip). It adds tremendous flavor (and convenience) in all these recipes.
Beer makes batters better, meat more tender, and sauces more flavorful.

This is a favorite treat in our family. Instead of bone-in thighs, I use approximately 3-1/2 lbs of boneless thighs.
