Cook the Book: 'The Bon Appétit Fast Easy Fresh Cookbook'
Steamed tilapia over spring greens, thin sliced red onions and slivered almonds dressed with orange balsamic vinaigrette.
Cook the Book: 'The Cook's Country Cookbook'
Honestly that horrid concoction involving whipped topping and some sort of pistachio pudding.
What are you famous for?
Ha, LoCCo it's the exact same way for me!

Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box
Fondest memory? The first time I baked my bacon in the oven rather than pan frying it. It was a religious experience.

Cook the Book: 'Techniques of Healthy Cooking'
A mix of brown and wild rice, a bunch of frozen veggies (the grocery store sells great bagged mixes), sesame oil, a nice dollop of jarred ginger, Bragg's and maybe some Siracha. Sometimes wrapped in a whole grain tortilla or just eat as is.
Cook the Book: 'The Vegetable Dishes I Can't Live Without'
Asparagus tossed in olive oil and Kosher salt, very lightly grilled.

I like mine baked in the oven, not too crispy and not limp either. Mmm...bacon.
Cook the Book: 'The Breakaway Cook'
It's a tie between Kosher salt and balsamic vinegar. Once I started using those two things it's like my cooking just exploded.

New Year's Day pork and sauerkraut when my parents were still living. They hadn't had it before and we all needed some good luck.

One of my best memories was at a summer pig roast. That was the best pig I have ever had.

Thankfully MANY fond pork memories. But one that stands out is my wife's late Uncle John's bbq pork spareribs. It seems like we waited FOREVER for them to be done. I was sure they would be dried out. But instead they were the most flavorful, tender and succulent ribs I ever tasted! Sadly, he would never share his secret recipe, and took it to the grave with him. They will remain legendary!

my mom making homemade bbq pork

Pork is king.
One of my first memories was of my mom, for reasons I cannot fathom, cutting the fat off the pork chops and sizzling them in a pan. My sisters and I would fight over them and there would never be any left for whatever it was mom was trying to cook.... go figure :)
Also the incredible 'poor soup' that I don't know why I still crave: Boiled salt pork with wax beans, salt and pepper...
Roast pork with it's crunchy fat layer studded with garlic is sheer heaven!

Ooooohhhhh! PORK!!!!! Is there any better smell than bacon frying up in a skillet or a ham, covered with a brown sugar glaze, baking in the oven?...or a real vinegar based bbq pulled pork sandwich with coleslaw on top?....ohhhhh!...Dear Lard, I would love to win this prize!

My grandmother would make us BLT's on lazy Sunday afternoons.

The first time that I had barbecue any where outside of Texas, and realized that pork could almost be prepared as well as beef.

Eating bacon-wrapped dates at a friends house for New Year's Eve. I make them all the time now.

My fondest memory is the pork chops that my dad would burn - i mean barbeque on the grill when I was little. It wasn't until I was in my 20's that I ever had an unburnt pork chop!! Yummy!!

Smelling frying bacon on Christmas morning.

I'm pretty sure it was when I tried a Godfather's pizza years and years ago. They had a spicy italian sausage which was absolutely amazing!

I love the smell of frying bacon
Seriously Delicious Holiday Giveaway: Zingerman's Praise the Lard Gift Box
The first time I ever ate bacon was wonderful.. I couldn't believe I had gone so long without it!

My pork memories are not really all that memorable since my mother is Jewish, we don't eat pork very often. I don't know if it exactly what you are looking for, but whenever we do have pork, it is a sort of tradition in my family to make sure to offer my mom some even though we know that she won't eat it. Thanks for the giveaway.

My grandfather, a farmer from Missouri, would always bring us a box of fresh sausage when he came to visit for Christmas. That and left-over honey baked ham make Christmas breakfast perfect.

growing up in the 40'sand 50's,when meat was still very tasty,I canb still taste the dark, crunchy ham rinds,that mother would dole out to us kids. Of course this would be FORBIDDDEN in today's world. People under 55 will never know what real food tasted like.
