Bulls Eye Recipes

BULL'S EYE ORIGINAL BARBECUE SAUCE COPYCAT

Steps:

• Combine all ingredients in a 2-qt sauce pan. Mix well.
• Simmer over very low heat for 15-minutes, stirring occasionally.

BUCKEYES I

Steps:

• In a large bowl, mix together the peanut butter, butter, vanilla and confectioners' sugar. The dough will look dry. Roll into 1 inch balls and place on a waxed paper-lined cookie sheet.
• Press a toothpick into the top of each ball (to be used later as the handle for dipping) and chill in freezer until firm, about 30 minutes.
• Melt chocolate chips in a double boiler or in a bowl set over a pan of barely simmering water. Stir frequently until smooth.
• Dip frozen peanut butter balls in chocolate holding onto the toothpick. Leave a small portion of peanut butter showing at the top to make them look like Buckeyes. Put back on the cookie sheet and refrigerate until serving.

BUCKEYE BALLS II

Steps:

• Line a baking sheet with waxed paper; set aside.
• In a medium bowl, mix peanut butter, butter, vanilla, and confectioners' sugar with hands to form a smooth stiff dough. Shape into balls using 2 teaspoons of dough for each ball. Place on prepared pan, and refrigerate.
• Melt shortening and chocolate together in a metal bowl over a pan of lightly simmering water. Stir occasionally until smooth, and remove from heat.
• Remove balls from refrigerator. Insert a wooden toothpick into a ball, and dip into melted chocolate. Return to wax paper, chocolate side down, and remove toothpick. Repeat with remaining balls. Refrigerate for 30 minutes to set.

BULL'S EYE BREAKFAST

Steps:

• Heat a griddle or pan to medium-high heat, and butter both sides of a slice of bread. I find it it easiest for cleanup (and to avoid buttering the rest of my kitchen) to do this step on a sheet of wax paper.
• With a biscuit cutter, the rim of a glass, or just a knife, cut a large circle out of the center of the bread.
• Place the bread and the bread circle in the heated pan (the butter should make a "sizzling" sound).
• Once you hear the "sizzling" sound, crack the egg directly into the pan, in the middle of the piece of bread from which you cut the circle.
• When the white of the egg is not see-through anymore, turn the egg/bread combo over. Turn the bread circle over also.
• Cook until bread is brown on both sides (like toast) and egg in the middle of egg/bread combo is over-easy (the white is cooked on both sides while the yolk is liquid).

TRI-COLOR BULLSEYE SPRITZ COOKIES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Line 2 rimmed baking sheets with parchment paper.
• Combine the butter and sugar in the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat on medium-high speed until light and fluffy, about 2 minutes. Add and mix in 1 egg at a time, scraping down the sides of the bowl between each addition. Add the vanilla and mix. Whisk together the flour and salt in a medium bowl and add to the butter mixture, beating until the flour is just incorporated.
• Separate the cookie dough into 3 bowls as follows: a small amount for the center of the bullseye then divide the rest equally for the other 2 rings. Add 2 to 3 drops of one of the food colors to the small bowl, stirring to distribute the color evenly. Repeat with a different food color for each of the remaining bowls of dough.
• Place each colored dough in separate piping bags, making sure to put the smallest amount of dough in the bag with the smallest tip. Starting with the outside of each bullseye, pipe 3-inch rings onto the baking sheet, about 2 inches apart. Use the next bag to pipe the second colored ring inside the first ring, then use the third bag to fill in the center of the bullseye. If the edges of the piped rings overlap, use a bit of water to moisten a finger and smooth out the uneven section.
• Freeze the bullseyes for 10 minutes before baking. Then bake until the cookies are set but not yet golden brown, about 11 minutes, rotating the pan 180 degrees at the halfway mark.
• Allow the cookies to cool on a wire rack before serving.

BULL'S-EYE ULTIMATE GRILLED BURGER

Steps:

• Heat greased grill to medium heat. Place onions in center of 18x12-inch sheet of heavy-duty foil. Top with 1 Tbsp. barbecue sauce. Bring up foil sides. Double fold top and ends to seal packet, leaving room for heat circulation inside. Mix meat, peppers and 1 Tbsp. of the remaining barbecue sauce; shape into 4 patties.
• Grill burgers and foil packet 14 to 18 min. or until burgers are done (160ºF), turning burgers over after 8 min. and brushing occasionally with remaining barbecue sauce. Remove foil packet after 15 min. Add buns, cut-sides down, to grill. Cook 2 min. or until toasted.
• Cut slits in packet to release steam before opening packet. Spread bottom halves of buns with dressing; cover with burgers, cheese, onion mixture and tops of buns.

BULL'S-EYE MEMPHIS STYLE RED-EYE BBQ RIBS

Steps:

• Place each rack of ribs on separate large sheet heavy-duty foil; rub with coffee grounds. Wrap ribs in foil. Refrigerate 1 hour.
• Heat charcoal grill to medium heat. Arrange coals evenly on each side of charcoal grate. Place wrapped ribs on center of grate; cover with lid. Grill 2 hours.
• Remove ribs from foil; discard foil. Place ribs, meat-sides down, on grill grate; brush with 1/4 cup sauce. Grill 10 min., turning after 5 min. and brushing with remaining barbecue sauce.

BULL'S-EYE BEST BARBECUE BEANS RECIPE

Steps:

• Cook and stir bacon and onions in medium saucepan on medium heat until bacon is crisp, stirring frequently; drain.
• Return bacon mixture to saucepan. Add remaining ingredients; mix well. Cook 5 min. or until heated through, stirring occasionally.

BULL'S EYE PEANUT BUTTER CANDY

Steps:

• Mix the peanut butter mixture together well.
• Form into small balls and put in refrigerator over night.
• When ready to dip, use a double boiler and melt the wax, chocolate bits, and the squares of chocolate together.
• Using a toothpick (I sometimes use a fork so I don't have to get rid of the toothpick hole), insert it into the middle of the ball and dip in the chocolate mixture about 7/8 of the way, leaving a small eye at the top.
• Put on wax paper to cool.

BAKED BULL'S-EYE EGGS

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Generously butter a nonstick rimmed baking sheet. Butter bread on both sides. With a cookie cutter or drinking glass, cut a 2 1/2-inch round from center of each bread slice. Place slices and rounds on sheet and bake until golden, 6 minutes. Remove from oven and flip bread.
• Carefully crack 1 egg into center of each slice. Season with salt and pepper. Bake until egg whites are set but yolks are still runny, 8 to 9 minutes, rotating sheet halfway through (sprinkle with cheese, if using, during last 30 seconds of baking). Serve with desired toppings.

NO-BAKE RED VELVET BULL'S EYE CHEESECAKE

Steps:

• For the red velvet cookie crust: Coat a 9-inch springform pan with cooking spray.
• Put the cookies, sugar and salt in a 14-cup or large food processor fitted with the blade attachment and pulse until finely ground. Add the melted butter and pulse to combine. Press into the bottom of a 9-inch springform pan. Freeze for 10 minutes to set; be sure to remove after 10 minutes so the cake batter won't set too quickly in the pan. Clean the food processor for the filling.
• For the filling: Put the water in a microwave-safe bowl. Sprinkle the gelatin over the top and stir with a spoon. Let sit until thickened, 5 minutes. Microwave until fully melted, about 30 seconds. Set aside and cool to room temperature, 5 minutes.
• Put the cream cheese, confectioners' sugar, sour cream and vanilla in the large food processor fitted with the blade attachment. Pulse until very creamy and smooth. Alternatively, combine in a stand mixer fitted with the paddle attachment.
• While the machine is running, slowly pour in the heavy cream and cooled liquid gelatin, scraping down the sides as needed, until combined. With the machine running again, add the milk and puree until the batter is very smooth, creamy and easily poured.
• Transfer 2 cups batter to a medium bowl and the remaining batter to another medium bowl. Whisk the melted chocolate and 1 teaspoon red food coloring into the bowl with 2 cups batter. Add more food coloring as desired until it's a nice red color.
• Use a large spoon to transfer 1 cup of the white batter into a 1-cup measuring cup. Use another large spoon to transfer 1/2 cup of the red batter into a 1/2-cup measuring cup. Alternatively, see Cook's Note.
• Pour the 1 cup white batter into the center of the springform pan and allow the batter to spread. Pour the 1/2 cup red batter directly into the center of the white batter in the springform pan and allow it to spread in a circular shape to create a bull's eye effect. Repeat alternating the white and red batters in 1/2 cup portions until both are used.
• Refrigerate the cheesecake until set, 8 hours and up to overnight.
• When ready to serve, run a paring knife around the edge of the pan before releasing. Slice and serve.
