The "Panure Family Booyah" was usually on a Sunday in late September, and the veggie chopping and cooking would start around 6 AM. Dad even had his own booyah kettle, which looked like an oil oil drum with wheels and a stove-pipe coming out the side. Relatives from all sides came over during the course of the day ... what a memory! Now we’rea talking ~~ it’s not real booyah without the OXTAIL !!

It was always my favorite...especially the kind my dad's secretary makes. The people who dye regular cake red just don't know the goodness that is this chocolate dessert. I do prefer the cream cheese frosting though...and pecans...it's so so rich! Thanks for posting this...I'll have to try it out! Oh, I LOVE red velvet cake, Red Dye and all!
