Because of this little food blog of mine, I have been very fortunate to have heard from long lost relatives and friends that I hadn't heard from in years. "Googling" my maiden name, Rilying or Eldorado, (my hometown) or maybe someone checking up on my big brother Allan, have led some fine folks to my email address. I have connected with 2 cousins in California that I've never met and we have shared stories about our families and gotten to know one another a little bit. This "Email machine" is quite an invention!
Recently, I received an email from this really nice fella from Southern Illinois (my home turf) and lo and behold, he is part of the family-ran business that manufactures and distributes the * Country Bob Products that grace the shelves in markets throughout the Tri- State area and probably beyond. Al Malekovic was kind enough to take the time and read my blog and asked me if I would like to sample his company's products. Now, I'm not gonna turn down a food sample, so I immediately replied and I had Country Bob's All Purpose Sauce delivered to my door in TWO days!! I was so excited opening the box. It contained not only those 2 bottles of deliciousness, but Al was kind enough to include some great recipes, knowing I'd love them.
Geraldo and I had our first taste of Country Bob's that evening and we instantly became fans. I am a firm believer in the fact that if you cook a steak right, you don't need any steak sauce, but this particular sauce really enhances the great Flat Iron steaks we grilled for dinner that night. It was just the right amount of spice and flavor to use as a dipping sauce for the tender steak. I have since included it in my Meat Loaf recipe and Stuffed Peppers. I hit my prized BBQ sauce with a few dashes, too. It's got that taste that goes with just about everything. Very versatile! I guess you could say that I now use my Country Bob's for anything where I had used A1, Worcestershire or 57 Sauce for. It is really delicious and I am tickled to see it on the shelves at Kroger's here in Nashville. I've spread the world to my friends and neighbors urging them to give this "Sauce" a try. I am sharing that same advice to your foodies out there also. Check your store's shelves for "Country Bob's Products." I am including a picture of Al's product line and encourage you to get on board the County Bob train!! I gave a bottle to my youngest son Sam, who just moved into his first apartment this past week. He's looking for anything to get that "Mama-fied" taste to his food, so I handed over a bottle and told him that this is the newest condiment in the Schmidt House and that he will Love it. So, thanks Al, keep up the good work and I wish you and your family continued success.....you have a mighty fine product!!! This is an unsolicited opinion from someone who appreciates good tasting food!
*COUNTRY BOB'S ALL PURPOSE SAUCE can be found in the condiment aisle of your supermarket.
Check out COUNTRY BOB'S Webpage! Order some..you'll be glad you did! Tell Al that Comfortcook sent ya!
