I thought this March I would try a new twist on a traditional favorite and make my corned beef and cabbage into a grilled sandwich.  It was excellent…and easy to pack for lunch or a meal on the go.  Try out the recipe below, and let us know how you liked it!

Ingredients

• 1 1/2 cups cabbage, finely shredded
• 3 tablespoons mayonnaise
• 1 tablespoon horseradish sauce
• 1 teaspoon caraway seeds
• 3 tablespoons butter, softened
• 3 tablespoons Dijon mustard
• 6 slices marbled rye bread
• 6 slices canned corn beef or leftover corned beef
• sliced Swiss cheese
• butter for grilling sandwiches

Directions

• Blanch cabbage in lightly salted, boiling water about 1-2 minutes.
• Drain well, spread out on paper towel to get rid of extra moisture.
• Mix cabbage with mayo, horseradish and caraway seeds.
• Butter outside of 3 pieces of bread, place on griddle on medium heat.
• Spread mustard on inside of each slice.  Top with about 1/4 cup cabbage mixture, slices of corned beef, and slices of Swiss cheese.
• Top each sandwich with 2nd slice of bread, butter the top.
• Grill on griddle (or Panini press) until browned (3-4 minutes).
• Flip and grill other side, until browned and cheese is melted.

King Employees are buzzing with the excitement of the 21st Winter Olympic Games. They were asked, “What is your favorite Winter Olympic Sport?” Here are the results:

Ice Hockey came in 1st with 36% of the vote. Downhill Skiing and Ski Jumping tied for 2nd place, each with 18% votes. Finally, 3rd place was shared between Bobsled, Figure Skating, and Snowboarding, each with 9%. Sorry Apollo…no speed skating fans here! Maybe in 2014 someone will have a change of heart…

It’s all about the box, the bow, and the bag.

Nothing says “I love you” like heart shaped sunny side up eggs and heart shaped pancakes on Valentine’s Day morning.  Try using strawberry milk and frozen strawberries in the pancake batter to make them pink!

My husband once gave me a furry toilet seat cover because I was always complaining about it being cold!

A handwritten letter was the best (and most inexpensive) gift I have ever received from my wife on Valentine’s Day.  Just a little something to remind me how much she cares!

Any single’s out there?  The best part about Valentine’s Day is 50% off chocolate the day after!  I stock up every year on February 15th; truffles, caramels, vanilla cremes, milk, dark, mint…you can’t beat it!

I can never go wrong with a gift certificate to the spa.  She gets to spend some time getting pampered…and some time away from me!

Forget live roses that are going to die off in a week!  My husband got me glass roses a few years back, and they have been on my desk ever since.  It’s a little something to remind me of him during my busy day, and years later they still look great!

Everybody needs a snuggie.  If she doesn’t have one, buy one.  If she already has one, buy her one in leopard print.

King’s approach, while it appears rather conventional, is anything but. Gorilla Nuts is the latest in a series of out of the box innovative products. Starting with the problem, twist on connectors have been very uncomfortable to install for decades, King engineering department began an extensive search to change the feel. More comfort, more torque, better connection with less effort! That’s value!

For over two decades now King Innovation has had the unusual opportunity to add value in most of our relationships. The return on adding value to other people’s lives is nearly immeasurable. We are so grateful to have the opportunity to innovate. Taking a small niche and spending more time in it than any other party brings enormous results. Each of us here at King has participated and witnessed the innovation process. It makes me so happy to see lives changing, both inside at King those we effect outside of King, in such a positive way.

O’FALLON, MO – The way you see, feel, and experience electrical connections will never be the same; Gorilla Nuts™ has raised connector technology to a whole new platform.  With a cushion grip, superior torque and flexibility, and coverage of all red/yellow wire combinations, this is one beast of a connector.

Gorilla Nuts are designed with a unique feel, equipped with over-molded material that creates a distinctive cushion sensation and a flexible grip.  But don’t be fooled by the soft shell, this is one tough nut.  A Torque Performance Exterior (TPE) means that Gorilla Nuts out-perform comparable wire connectors when it comes to grip and torque.

King engineers knew that despite the outstanding torque and feel of Gorilla Nuts, the integrity of connections is not something Contractors could compromise.  That is why they call us King Innovation.  Gorilla Nuts’ patented design is also the first to feature Sharp Wire Technology™ (SWT) combined with our dual-performing WorkSkirt™.  Sharp Wire Technology means that the spring is square cut and expertly designed, using a maximum edge for the most secure connections.  The WorkSkirt not only protects over-stripped wires, but also allows Gorilla Nuts the flexibility to fit into tight spaces.

King Innovation’s President, Frank Vlasaty, is excited about Gorilla Nuts’ potential.  He notes, “Through extensive market research and direct feedback from Electricians, we have come up with an innovative product that makes life easier.  In side by side comparisons to other connectors on the market, virtually everyone chose Gorilla Nuts…we believe the Gorilla Nut connector will revolutionize the twist on wire connector market.”

Gorilla Nuts cover the entire red/yellow wire range for both solid and stranded wire, and easily fit 5 #12s.  So if profitability and inventory reduction are your goals, Gorilla Nuts make it easy; it’s the only connector you will need for the job.
