Gluten Free Rocky Top Rubble

Todays film is Six Pack.

Stopping briefly in a small Texas town, an itinerant race car driver finds that his stock car, on a trailer behind his motor home, has just been quickly and expertly stripped. He chases down the miscreants, who turn out to be six orphan children. He has no recourse to the law, for the corrupt local sheriff takes most of the proceeds

of their thievery in exchange for not putting them in an orphanage. They are 

charming rogues who are in turn charmed by him. Disliking their arrangement with the sheriff, they stow away with him, and he finds himself becoming a reluctant stepfather. Thanks to their enthusiasm and incredible mechanical know-how, he

begins to make a name for himself on the racing circuit. But the sheriff doesn’t take kindly to losing his extra income.

I picked this film for two reasons. First, it is a great family film and second, they sing Rocky Top at the end of the movie.

Before going Gluten Free, we used to go out to eat about once a month. One of my husband’s favorite places was Longhorn Steak House. The dish he ordered most often was Longhorn Rockytop Chicken, French Fries, and Spiced apples. After going gluten free we never returned to Longhorn. They refused to share any of their recipe. In other words they would not tell me if anything was gluten free or not.

Since then I have been making Rocky Top Rubble. It is fairly simple and very yummy! Kids tend to really enjoy it too. I like serving it with rice or a baked potato.

• 1 pound Bacon diced
• 4-6 Skinless Boneless Chicken Breasts
• 2 large Sweet Onions sliced
• Salt and Pepper
• 1/2 cup Brown Sugar
• 1/2 cup Ketchup
• 1-2 cups shredded Cheddar Cheese

1. First you are going to slice your bacon in the opposite direction that is was originally cut. This way you will have small pieces that will fry into bits.
2. Cut your Chicken into bite sized chunks and set aside
3. In an electric skillet or a large fry pan on the stove begin to crisp the bacon.
4. While bacon is crisping slice you onions
5. when bacon is crisp add your onions. Stir often so nothing sticks or burns.
6. when onions are clear add chicken
7. add salt and pepper to taste
8. Stir regularly until chicken is cook though.
9. Sprinkle on the brown sugar
10. add Ketchup
11. Stir to allow the sugar to melt
12. If you have Liquid Smoke a dash goes nicely, but is not necessary.
13. Allow your skillet to simmer for 5-8 minute.
14. Stir as needed
15. Serve Topped with Cheese

After writing up this post I realized I had shared this recipe before.  Rocky Top Rubble the First Time. I did not mean to “cheat”. I hope you all still enjoyed the post and I will be adding food pictures as soon as I can.

Live Laugh and Enjoy!
