Cook the Book: 'Urban Italian'
I make my own take on lasagna, where the meat layers is made up of a beef/pork/veal ragu that I simmer for several hours and leave in the fridge for 2 days so that the flavors can meld; also included above the meat layers are some oven roasted tomatoes that I roast in the oven for several hours as well with some thyme and rosemary, all topped off with fresh bufala mozzarella, and after its all out of the oven some chiffonade of basil :) delicious!!!!
Cook the Book: 'Kneadlessly Simple'
I love making pretzel rolls, and challah bread :) AND BAGELS!!!

my favorite pork memory has to probably be the most basic... my first true taste of bacon... when i was probably in middle school and went on a trip with the family to virginia and we had breakfast at some diner and i had bacon for the first time... even at that age i knew i wanted to have bacon everyday... and i never understood why my mom wouldn't cook it everyday... but now i do hehe.... oh bacon....

I'm going to have to say the Roasted Brined Turkey from Cook's Illustrated. Cook's Illustrated always has amazing, practically foolproof recipes. Seeing as to this will be my first thanksgiving making the Turkey for the family I'm going to go with their recipe that way I don't mess up the traditional Thanksgiving poultry that so many say is easy to dry out...

Oven Roasted tomatoes... It was the first recipe I made from Tom Colicchio's Think Like a Chef... And I have been oven roasting a batch of tomatoes every sunday for use throughout the week... its so versatile, just using whatever herbs I might have on hand, and it yields the tomatoes and some amazing tomato juices which can be used for other things as well, such as flavoring risottos or stock...
its the definition of a basic recipe that would seem perfectly fit in an Ina Garten book... Taking simple ingredients, an easy follow through, and ending in tremendously easy, repeatable, dependable, and sinfully delicious food....
