Couldn't handle the stage-sharing? But he was himself again in this newest uploaded performance, a take on Bittman's braised short...

Since Cinders is not destined for sausage, she will become the mascot for a campaign to raise money for the Farm Crisis Network, which supports struggling farmers. After the jump, Cinders, boots and all....

If your cooking lid doesn't have a pig face on it, it's too boring. Get a pig cooking lid from the MoMA Store's collection of Japanese products, available for a limited time. The steam comes up through the pig's nostrils! That's awesome! Even if you don't use it as a cooking lid, it would make an interesting centerpiece on a table. I'd call it, "Melting Pig Head."
