I think it looks pretty good. I remember one of my buddies back in college, his wife used to make a Reuben dip for barbecues. It's kind of the same thing. She would always use just deli me though.

I do a lot of this type of stuff that with leftovers. Just try to change it into a completely different dish. It's what makes cooking fun.

It's definitely one of those make once a year dishes, just like the lasagna one.

Our tradition, I always make a hot seafood dip and shrimp cocktail during Christmas time. Basically a crab meat and crawfish augratin. I'll make enough to give to the neighbors, but then I also have enough to typically make a seafood lasagna or last couple of years I've been getting the big shells and stuffing those.

They're definitely dishes that I make annually, like corned beef and cabbage, chili, prime rib, gumbo, normal lasagna, etc. might make one or two twice.

You just don't eat it all the time, otherwise you'll end up like that guy.

i did a test, since i had already made oxtail soup in my pressure cooker i wanted to see how easy it'd be to make pulled pork, i just used 2cups of the tomato soup, dumped a butt in there and 3hr pressure cook, fell off the bone, had taste

i really wonder if "seasonings" and rubs are necessary

Wait, what on earth were you trying to make? You got a pork butt, and then you added cans of tomatoes soup? Were you trying to make a ragu?

Not trying to bust your balls, I'm just trying to figure out what the hell you're making.
