BBQ Mince and Mash Potatoes

By alexisknibbs on Jul 10, 2024

Mealtime is never easy in our house. My husband Howard and son Ted have a variety of differing tastes. It's challenging to know what to serve them for dinner. Now I know they love BBQs and mash potatoes so I decided to put the two ingredients together. I came up with this delicious dinner that was very well received by my little family. We hope you enjoy it as much as we do.

Do you like BBQ sauce and if so, are there any dishes you like to add it too? Let me know in the comments below and please don't forget to like and follow me.
