I went with the mama and {one of} the sisters to San Francisco on Tuesday
The weather was be-u-tea-full

and walked
and shopped
and shopped


and met P-Dub!
She is just like you think she'd be. Real. Gorgeous. Funny.
She had a Black Heels to Tractor Wheels book signing at Books, Inc. on Van Ness
There were 400+ people there. Yah, and it was hot!
She started with a brief introduction {her girlies were there with her} and then answered questions.
After, we got in line to get our books signed. I was so thankful that we were like 6th in line, or else I would've ripped someone's face off from the heat.
I even took my cookbook, all tattered and stained, to get signed.
And....I got a Black Heels signed for you!
She signed it "Love from the ranch, Ree"
How cool is that!?

My fave recipe of hers has got to be her breakfast potatoes. Mmmm, so tasty. And embarrassingly healthier then the way I used to make them!

What recipe don't I love of her's? I think my absolute favorite would have to be her PW Favorite Sandwich, the grilled cheese with green chili, onion and tomato on rye. It is phenomenal!

Beef with snow peas, hands down. Easy yet elegant, the kind of food you would order in a restaurant, only your homemade one is better.
Thanks for pictures of the trip, not as good as being there but close.
Love her 16 minute beef and bean burritos!
I love the rosemary rolls. So good and easy!
I love all her recipes, but just last week I tried her cinnamon rolls and they were delicious!
I've never heard of her before but my curiosity is peeked by your post.
Hard to narrow down a favorite recipe, so I thought I'd go with my favorite cake recipe. Red Velvet Cake :) http://allrecipes.com/Recipe/Classic-Red-Velvet-Cake/Detail.aspx

Seriously...the MAPLE CINNAMON ROLLS!!! :)
Oh, I'd love to have this book!
I love her cauliflower soup!
augh! I love her webpage, and the best recipe is the "Cherry Cake Pudding" I mean is DELICIOUS!!!!! if you haven't tried this one, you HAVE to make it...ummm yummy!
http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2011/01/cherry-cake-pudding/
I actually haven't made any of her recipes yet (shame!) but the cookbook should be on my doorstep any day now!
I think my favorite recipe is a simple beef stroganaff (holy baby brain, it literally took me 5 minutes to think of the name of the recipe!) which I plan on making this weekend & can't wait to eat!
Oh I love San Francisco. It's got to be better than melting snow Oklahoma. Yuck! My entire family adores Ree's apple dumpling recipe and I really like the beef and snow peas. I'm trying one of her chicken and pasta recipes this weekend. I can't wait-yum!
I'm not sure the name but it was like a pulled pork manwich of sorts. Omnomnom heavenly. I'm getting fat just thinking about it.
I made her mock chicken picatta and it was super yummy. We're going to a Valentine Couple's party tonight and I'll be bringing these stuffed mushrooms for an appetizer: http://bit.ly/eWeRq8
The mini meatball sandwiches are my son's favorite! I don't know if I can pick just one as my favorite....the MM favorite sandwich, chicken spaghetti, stuffed mushrooms.......I'm getting hungry just typing it!
We love the parker house rolls here. I have tried many recipes for parker house rolls and hers are the BEST!
LOVE her restaurant salsa. It is SO GOOD and tastes just like salsa from the restaurant.
Her bacon ranch chicken is to die for!
Ummm only one? Her coffee rolls? Fabulous! Pam
How exciting that you got to meet her!
My boys loooove the mini-meatball sandwiches! and so do I! hee hee! Oh, and her Little Brownie Bites! To die for!!!
Thanks for the chance!
hugs, margie
Cinnamon rolls hands down!
I make her garlic bread, burritos and cinnamon rolls a lot, but I'd have to say her stuffed mushrooms are my fav!

lover her donuts!!!
Cinnamon Rolls! Cinnamon Rolls! Cinnamon Rolls! Love that I can make a bunch, freeze and have for a weekend whenever. My kids love them too!!! In fact, I think we are making a batch this weekend! How fun to meet her! Thanks for the opportunity!
Oh, I sound so foolish, but I don't know about her. Please inform. My favorite recipe is Pumpkin Oatmeal Cookies w/chocolate chips. I know you are thinking they sound good, and they're even better than they sound.
oh I love her! I hope I win!! I love MM's sandwich! Yum!
OMG! I live 20 minutes away from San Francisco! How did I not know she was in town! I love her cinnamon rolls. I hope I win!
Thanks
I'm going to go with The Best Chocolate Cake Ever. No wait... The Mystery Rolls. No, The Best Lasgana Ever. Maybe The Bread? Oh, I don't know. They are all my favorite. :)
I've had nothing but great success with all of her recipes that I've tried, but my favorite is one she had on her blog recently for beef stew with beer and paprika. It was WONDERFUL and my husband loved it too :)
Love your blog!
melissaballard@aol.com
I am soooo jealous of your trip! I love PW and would LOVE to meet her. I have made tons of her recipes but our favorite is her cinammon rolls. AMAZING!
P.S. Come by my blog where I'm celebrating my one year anniversary with a giveaway!
We don't have Pioneer Woman book in Lithuania... so I can't say my favorite recipe. My b-day will be this Sunday and it would be perfect gift for me. :)
I love Marlboro Man's sandwich. It is so yummy!
aprilshecon(at)gmail(dot) com
My first recipe of hers was the shoestring fries, delicious then and still lovin it now!
I love San Francisco! I'm a fan of her cinnamon rolls - yum...getting a craving now....
My favourite cake is off her website. It is a chocolate and beetroot cake - simply devine!
Sounds like you girls had a great trip! I'm a little bit jealous. As a fan of PW, it's hard to pick one recipe, but I do lean toward her flat apple pie. :)
I have never made any of her stuff but the beef fajita nachos look real good!!!
OH my gosh! I am SO jealous you actually got to meet her. How fun. I just LOVE her recipes and do own her cookbook after hubby surprised me with it one day.
I think the favorite hit in my house to date of hers would be Marlboro Man's Favorite sandwhich. Everyone just loves that and would be thrilled if I made it three times a week or more.

I've never tried a Pioneer Woman recipe, I know horrible huh? But I would love to try the Meatballs with peppers and pineapple, that looks delicious!
I would have to say The Best Coffee Cake. ever. Seriously, so yummy
PW's bread pudding is my fav ~ it is fantastic!!
marlboro mans sandwich is my favorite!!!
I would have to say her cinnamon rolls - I have never made them but I have eaten them when others have made them...but I need to try several of her recipes, they are book marked and ready for tasting.
I love her photography skills!! And her food too! filet au poivre is my favorite so far!
Sour cream enchiladas. I love, love, love her books and photography.
Well I just found out about The Pioneer Woman not that long ago, and I made her Smashed Potatos and loved them :) I also loved her commentary about the recipe. I hope to make more of her recipes in the future, especially the cinnamon rolls...because it seems as if everyone loves those!
my absolute favorite is her au gratin potatoes, which gave me courage to try something so fancy (and it ended up being so easy and good).
My favorite recipe is the "Best Coffee Cake Ever." I took it to my bible study and it was well loved.
My very favorite recipe ever is the Cinnamon Rolls. You can tell because when you open my recipe book that page automatically falls open! :)
Love,love,love Marlboro Man's second favorite sandwich!!!! Everything I've made of her's I've loved.....of course!!!!! After my kid's taste somethin' new they say,"Is this from that lady?"!!!! LOL
I actually just made my FIRST recipe of hers. I know - I'm so behind! It was Easiest White Bread. And it was! So easy in fact I've made it twice in 2 weeks time. :) Sooo good! Thanks for the chance!
P-dub's Best Ever Chocolate Sheet Cake. Period. I make it a lot... And hubby takes big pieces to his friends at work. And they love it too. So good... In fact I might go make one right now!
Her Cinnamon Rolls ROCK! My sister and I have made them over and over and over!
I love PW! My hubby and I absolutely love her recipe for Marlboro Man's Favorite sandwich. And her Chicken Fried Steak, and her Smashed Potatoes. Ok, I'll stop now. :)
Love everything she cooks and photographs, but I'd have to say that her Tres Leches cake was the most decadent, most delicious, most wonderful thing I've ever made. And I've made it several times, always to high praise! Thanks, Ree! Here's the link: http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2009/09/tres-leches-cake/
whiskey glazed carrots - I thought I didn't like cooked carrots but these are to die for
My favorite PW recipe is Moist Pumpkin Spice Muffins with Cream Cheese Frosting.
Hands down it has to be her macaroni and cheese recipe. yumm!

Love her Maple Cinnamon Rolls!
bethresul (at) aol (dot) com
Me too - cinnamon rolls!
What a fun girl day!My fav p-woman recipe is her calzones.
I love her restaurant style salsa! It was the first of her recipes I ever made.
I have heard of her, but never tried any of her recipes! I can't wait to try some. I clicked on the link and they all look fabulous!!
One of my current favorite recipes is for fish tacos! Breaded fish, cabbage, cilantro and cilantro ranch dressing...all on corn tortillas...yummy!!
The chocolate sheet cake. I make it every time my husband comes home from being on the road and he loves it! It goes quick in our house. :)
I love PW! I love her Mashed Potatoes best though, and would love the book:)
We love her Caramel Apple Sticky Buns! The kids and my hub rarely leave me any. :)
My husband and I both love the crossiant-wrapped apples, soaked in Mountain Dew. I can't remember the name, but they are so fattening and tasty!
I love the bread flower (the bread, in his words) and buttered rosemary rolls. I *heart* bread, specially the homemade kind.
I don't know which is my favorite the cinnamon bread or the sour cream enchiladas. YUM!!
Carolinejaco@gmail.com
It's really hard to narrow it down to one! I too love the cinammon rolls, velvet cake and mashed potatoes! But another favorite is Meatloaf! Love it!
no doubt it is her cinnamon rolls....always a hit at our house. had them this morning for breakfast!
There are way too many to make a pick I bought the cookbook for my two daughters and my DIL for Christmas last year and they flipped... they love it.. and we made all of our thanksgiving from her book.. and it seems every time we are together we make something.. I love her steak bites and her smashed potatoes.. there is just so much more... I really would love her love story she wrote .. I read it as she posted online but I would love the book
I haven't made her spaghetti pie yet, but I really, really should. It looks great and quick!
I have to say this is only the second time I have heard of her. A friend was talking about a pioneer women meatloaf and thought it was just the name of the meatloaf. I would love to have her cookbook so I could try her out :)
We recently made her cajun chicken pasta- it was killer!!
I would have to say my favorite is the cinnamon rolls!
Cinnamon rolls, definitely! So easy to make and super yummy.
Oh my goodness I don't know if I can pick a favorite. Her recipes have never failed me. I think I'll go with her Asian Noodle Salad. SO scrumptious!
camiguffey@hotmail.com
That's easy - her cinnamon rolls (and I don't even like cinnamon rolls - well, before I made hers).
I like (LOVE) so many of her recipes it is hard to choose! But I have to say that her cinnamon rolls http://thepioneerwoman.com/cooking/2007/06/cinammon_rolls_/ are my fave sweet fix and her Pasta ai Quattro Formaggi is just to *die* for! Her site is oft visited when I need food/idea/life inspiration. As it must be said that you are one of my favourite bookmarks too!

love the chocolate sheet cake, cinnamon buns... mmm.. must go cook!
What could possibly be better then salted caramel brownies. Num!
Unfortunately, I have never made one of her recipes :( but my favorite recipe is for cheesy taco chili. I found it in a recipe book a few years and made it for a chili cookoff. And I WON! My family now calls it Alyssa's thousand-dollar chili lol.
The_yellow_submarine440@hotmail.com
the cinnamon buns for sure!
cinnamon rolls, meatballs on dinner rolls (we use sausage), and chicken spaghetti from her cook book!
I'm not hugely familiar with the Pioneer Woman Cookbook but now that you've mentioned it...it's a MUST HAVE for our household. I get funny looks from my friends when I'm saying.."I'm sure I could make THAT for much cheaper."
It was hard for me to not spend over an hour on her website because there's so much I want to try. Looks like the "favorite" I unwillingly narrowed my search down to is her Cinnamon Rolls! I feel a Pioneer Woman Cinnamon Roll exchange party coming on!
Don't know if I could just pick one... I make a new recipe each week and most of her's get added to the "routine"- I do make her Cinnamon rolls at least once a month and eat a pan by myself...
wow! my favorite recipe is PW's cinnamon rolls. i try to make them once a week. :)
thanks for the chance.
Her Chocolate Cake is the favorite in our house :)
Thanks for the chance to win!!!
My children and I recently made her Chocolate Valentines Day cookies and they are now our favourite cookies to bake.
Oh, how I adore Pioneer Woman. P-Dub is my imaginary BFF. Her blogs makes me laugh until I snort and her photography is awe inspiring. And her recipes...wowza!! I'm a confirmed fat and happy follower. Fat and very, very happy. My absolute fave is her Dump Cake recipe. Cherries, pineapple, cake mix and a boat load of butter....yummy!!.
Thanks for this great giveaway.
I was actually given her Maple Cinnamon Roll recipe by a friend, but didn't know anything about her, but after reading the description of the book... I HAVE TO WIN THIS BOOK!!!! It TOTALLY describes how MY cowboy swept a city girl off her feet!!!!! I would love, love, love to win this book!!!!!!
Her cinnamon rolls....i have made them many times and they always turn out perfectly!
Do I really have to pick just ONE recipe? AAHH!
Okay... how about the baked lemony pasta
and mac and cheese
and apple brown betty
and... I'll stop there ;-)
I can't possibly pick just one recipe of P-Dub's. Seriously, every time I have family or friends over for dinner it is an experiment with a new PW recipe... I have made almost everything in her book.
So I'll go with my husband's favorite so far.
The Marlboro Man sandwich. (and though he doesn't know it yet, I'm going to make her version of the MM sandwich soon to shake things up a bit!!)
Cinnamon Rolls! I love all her ideas, recipes and humor - wish she'd come to my neck of the woods..
Bacon-wrapped jalapenos! So simple, and no matter how many I make to take to different gatherings, they're always all eaten up.
The fried chicken!
