Cuisine a la Pierre - Holiday Spiced Wine
Need the perfect adult beverage to serve at your next party, but are you sick of egg nog? Try this warming Spiced Wine recipe to help your holiday spirits.
5 minutes to prepare and ready to server in 30 minutes.
Recipe
Ingredients
750 ml Bottle of Dry Red Wine
1/3 Cup Light Brown Sugar (or Honey)
4 Whole Cloves
4 Allspice Berries
1 Pinch of Ground Ginger
2 Sticks of Cinnamon
1 Orange
1/4 Cup of Brandy (optional)
Steps
Put the Cloves and Allspice in a tea bag. If you don't have a tea bag, you'll need to strain these out before serving.
Slice the Orange into 1/2 inch circles.
Combine all the ingredients into a Crock-Pot or pot on the stove. Cover and heat on low. If you heat it too much, the alcohol will evaporate out.
After about 30 minutes, when it is warm, remove the tea bag and set the Crock-Pot to the lowest setting.
Server with one of the orange slices in each glass and an extra cinnamon stick if you like.

Cuisine a la Pierre - Chili Soup - Halloween Special!
This is a recipe that screams Halloween for Pierre. His mother used to make it before he and his friends would go to Haunted Houses every year. It has some great flavor, is customizable and should only take 15 minutes to prepare. It tastes great on the stove, but even better after simmering in a Crockpot all day.
Recipe
Ingredients
- 1 lb Ground Beef
- 46 oz can Tomato Juice
- 14.5 oz can Stewed Tomatoes
- 15 oz can Dark Red Kidney Beans
- 15.5 oz can Chili Style Beans In Chili Gravy
Seasonings (To Taste, but start with)
- 4 Tbsp Dry Onion Flakes
- 1 Tbsp Dry Minced Garlic
- 1 Tbsp Chili Powder
- 10 - 20 dashes of Hot Sauce
- 1 Tbsp Sugar
- Salt and Pepper
Steps
1. Brown Ground beef. Sprinkle in 1/4 of Onions and Garlic while browning.
2. Rinse and drain beef. Break up beef into small pieces.
3. Combine all ingredients into large pot or Crockpot and heat.
4. Sometime before serving, using the edge of a sharp spoon, cut the stewed tomatoes into smaller pieces.
5. Season to taste. Note that seasonings take about 20 minutes to release their flavor after being added to the pot. The longer you cook this, the better it will taste.
6. Serve. We recommend serving with Sour cream, Cheese, Crackers, Garlic Bread or Cinnamon Rolls.
