Feaston’s Freezer Pasta Sauce

Spaghetti. With meatballs. And garlic bread. That’s undoubtedly our favorite meal here at Feaston. We shopped around at the store for our favorite pasta sauce and we generally buy this brand. But lately, our loyalty has switched to a new brand: our own.

Asparagus and Mushroom Cream Pasta

Asparagus is right in the thick of its growing season and are we ever glad! Unlike the off-season stuff you find at the grocery store, fresh, local asparagus tends to have smaller, more tender spears, making it the perfect addition to this creamy pasta dish.

Honey and Apple Pork Ribs

In need of a special treat?

Ribs are it. We’ve made them before on the grill and we hear they are super easy in the Crock Pot, but our butcher (some guy working in the meat department at Wegmans), said we had to try them in the oven. So we did.

Now, ribs are definitely a bit of a splurge and they do take some time, but they are WORTH it.
