This creamy, briney dill pickle pasta salad is certainly not your normal backyard BBQ pasta salad. The pasta has the perfect texture-it's not too mushy or tough-and that comes from overcooking the pasta. Yes, overcooking.

Pool-hall slaw (or "poolroom slaw" to some) has an ambiguous pedigree. It was created and popularized in Fayetteville, Tennessee.

Why choose between a brownie and a cookie when you can have both in one bar? The brownie layer is super fudgy and (at least with the brownie mix we used) studded with bits of melted chocolate. It comes topped with a crisp-chewy chocolate chip cookie layer that's quite classic and has ample bits of melty semisweet chocolate morsels.
