Another winner for my picky family! I use a spicy bbq sauce - love the combination of sweet bbq sauce and tangy pickles!

This was delicious and a great way to do something different with ingredients probably everyone has on hand. I used real chopped onion instead of minced. I used a spicy brown mustard instead of regular. I also cooked the minute rice in beef broth separately then added it to the skillet b/c I thought 2 cups of rice would be too much. I ended up adding 1 cup cooked rice (in broth). It was fabulous.The crunch of the bacon and pickles really makes it.

I used turkey bacon and it was a pleasant substitute. I also substituted dill pickle relish instead of the chopped dill pickles. (Notice it's NOT sweet pickle relish) I thought this dish was very easy to make, it had a very good flavor. With the 3 cups of instant rice it was a bit dry for our taste buds, so I would probably cut back to 2 - 2 1/2 cups minute rice. This should keep the texture a little more moist. I used Famous Dave's Rich & Saucy when I made this.

Made this last night and then served leftovers over shredded lettuce and tomato slices. Delish!!! I used ground turkey and instant brown rice for a healthy swap and will definitely make it again!!
