By Linda Cook,

1 days ago

SR Promotions will hold its season championships at Davenport Speedway on Monday, Aug. 24, a news release says. The event was originally scheduled for Aug. 14, but was postponed because of rain.

Track champions will be crowned in our six weekly classes: the Outhouse/Storage to Go - IMCA Late Models, the Midwest Recycler/Del’s Metal Co. IMCA Modifieds, the Koehler Electric Street Stocks, the Fred’s Towing/Cantrell’s Towing/Quad City Towing IMCA SportMods, the D&K Home Products IMCA Stock Cars, and the Wangelin’s Auto IMCA Hobby Stocks.

Several classes continue to have tight point races going into the regular season finale. In the Street Stock, Stock Car, and Hobby Stock classes, first and second place are separated by only three points. The complete point standings of all six Davenport Speedway weekly classes can be found here.

The pit gate opens at 4 p.m., the grandstand at 5 p.m., hot laps at 6:30 p.m., with racing afterward.

Track, state, and national points will be paid in all IMCA classes racing at the season championships. The races will be live-streamed here.

A widening food recall connected to a multistate Salmonella outbreak now covers dips, salsas, guacamole and prepared meals sold by some of America's largest grocery chains. Taylor Fresh Foods announced the voluntary recall on Aug. 9 after learning that jalapeno supplier Coast Citrus Distributors was recalling peppers because of possible Salmonella contamination. The affected jalapenos came from a grower in Sinaloa, Mexico, identified as the likely source of an ongoing outbreak.

Someone Poured Root Beer Into Baked Beans—and the Cookout Side Dish Got Seriously Interesting

Sweet, smoky baked beans get an unexpected upgrade from root beer, which brings deep caramel notes and a little old-fashioned soda-shop sweetness to the sauce. As the beans bake, everything turns thick, glossy, and bubbling, with savory seasoning balancing the sweetness and crisp-edged bacon adding smoky richness if you pile it in. The result is familiar enough to belong beside burgers and barbecue, but different enough to make people stop after the first spoonful and wonder what gives the sauce that extra depth. It is sticky, saucy, sweet-savory comfort food with just enough surprise to keep the serving spoon moving.

These One-Pan Oven Ribs Bring Backyard Barbecue Comfort Straight Into the Kitchen

Tender ribs baked low and slow until the meat pulls cleanly from the bone are the kind of dinner that makes the whole house smell like something worth waiting for. The oven keeps the meat juicy while the outside develops a sticky, caramelized coating with smoky, savory flavor clinging to every edge. Brush on barbecue sauce near the end and it turns glossy, bubbling, and just charred enough to give you that irresistible mix of tender meat and sweet, saucy crust. It is hearty, messy, and exactly the kind of meal that feels like a summer cookout even when the grill never gets uncovered.

The Cleaner I Add to Every Mop Bucket

For years, I thought the mop was the most important part of cleaning my floors. What made the biggest difference was what I added to the mop bucket. Instead of buying a different floor cleaner every few months, I started making my own with ingredients I already had at home. It's simple, inexpensive, and leaves my floors looking clean without a sticky residue.

These Orange Knots Bring a Bright Citrus Twist to the Kind of Sweet Roll Nobody Expects

Soft, golden dough twisted into little knots and brushed with a zesty orange glaze makes this the kind of bake that feels cheerful before the first bite. The centers stay tender and fluffy, while the edges pick up just enough color to give every knot a lightly crisp finish. Fresh orange adds bright citrus flavor that cuts through the sweetness, and the glaze settles into every twist for a sticky, glossy finish that makes them hard to leave alone. They are warm, buttery, and just different enough from ordinary cinnamon rolls to feel like something special without becoming fussy.
