Dry rubbed ribs! Finished hot so they get a bit crispy on the outside but still tender and moist on the inside.

Canned whole peeled tomatoes. I use them for everything. Chili, quick pasta, crush them with garlic, sauted onion, basil, poach an egg on top of it all and pour over crusty bread for breakfast.

There's a pulled pork pita served at a café in my university that's the single best food item available on campus. Some kind of magical Mediterranean-style marinade transforms it into mouthfuls of porky heaven.

My favorite is ribs (baby back?), my great aunt had a really good recipe for BBQ sauce (aunt dorie's BBQ sauce) She probably just got it from a cookbook and called it her own. Even done in an oven they are good but so much better on the grill.

Smoked pork butt is THE best. NO marinade - NO rub. An all natural presentation.

What a difficult choice... I guess Bacon is my all-time favorite.

Steam minced pork. Get about 200g of lean meat, use 2 big knife and start chopping. It makes a nice rhythm of "clong clong", while mincing the meat, add in some pepper and sesame oil. When it is well incorporated, the meat will be quite lumpy and transfer it to a bowl. Add about a small teaspoon of cornstarch, salt to taste and some chinese cooking wine. Stir and mix well. Scoope the meaty mixture to a glass plate, sprinkle some julienne ginger (fried with some sesame oil), and steam on high heat until done. The whole kitchen will have a wonderful aroma and makes you drool. Serve hot with plain white rice. Mum used to make this for me when I am not feeling well. Very appetizing. Brings back fond memory.
