An alternative use for ketchup & our giveaway winner!

The winner of our Memorial Day Giveaway is Holly! 

Holly, please comment back with your contact information so we can mail you out your products!  Don't worry, we will not publish the comment.

The first thing that tends to come to everyone's mind when they hear ketchup is using it as a condiment for hamburgers or hot dogs.  Our Country Ketchup has so many possibilities beyond a burger topping; from using it to spice up a marinara sauce, make a cocktail sauce, or easy appetizers such as Cream Cheese & Crab Dip.  Here is a wonderful, easy recipe using our Country Ketchup that everyone will enjoy.

ingredients
- 1/4 cup vegetable or light olive oil
- 1-cup onion, chopped 3/8-inch
- 1-cup celery, chopped 3/8-inch
- 1 cup green bell pepper, seeded and chopped 3/8-1/2 inch
- 2 tsp. garlic, minced
- 3 pounds ground beef
- 2 cups tomato Sauce
- 2 tsp. salt
- 1 1/2 cups Stonewall Kitchen Country Ketchup


directions

1.  Heat oil in large frying pan over medium heat. When the oil is hot add the onion, celery, and green bell, sauté until onion is translucent but not browned. Add garlic and sauté about 2 minutes.

2.  Add ground beef and brown. Drain off grease.

3.  Add remaining ingredients. Reduce heat and simmer until flavor fully develops, about 15-30 minutes.

A Memorial Day Giveaway


Are you planning to fire up the grill this weekend?  I know that we are and there will be a few burgers consumed in my near future!  Everyone knows that I work for Stonewall Kitchen, so whenever we have parties, I always get asked what my favorite Stonewall Kitchen product is.  There are so many great products, that it is hard to narrow it down to just one, and usually my reply is whatever I am in the mood for at the time. 

One product that always remains at the top of my list is our Country Ketchup.  I know, I know, such an average condiment to be a favorite out of such a unique product line.  This is no average ketchup though!  If you haven't tried this ketchup you need to right away.  It is chunky, garlicky and has just the right amount of spice to it!  I consider it an "adult ketchup".  Another product always in my top choices?  Our mustard...not just one, but the whole assortment.  Our Caramelized Onion mustard is our newest addition to the line and paired with the Country Ketchup they make the perfect condiments for a hamburger or hot dog, so we want you to give them a try!

What you can win:
One jar of our Caramelized Onion Mustard and one jar of our Country Ketchup

To Enter:

Mandatory:
What is your favorite condiment to add to a hamburger or hot dog?
