Peanut Butter Pancakes
A great deal of you out there use the coveted Cream Cheese Pancakes from IBIH. I have nothing against her (she's an amazing cook), but I do have something against her pancakes.

BBQ Pulled Chicken Sliders
Remember the BBQ Pulled Chicken recipe that I did in the slow cooker the other day? Well it made quite a lot of food, and there was certainly leftovers to go around.

They're a bit messy to make, but they are so damn tasty you won't regret the cleanup.
