Pulled Pork with pickles and slaw
Yes!Chef! loves pork. When I first met him, I couldn’t understand why he liked it so much. It was always dry and tasteless every time I had it. So, I would frequently turn up my nose to his suggestion of pork for dinner because of my pork bias. Yes, I was a hater…a pork hater.
However, dear husband has changed my mind forever.

“Lisa: I’m going to become a vegetarian
Homer: Does that mean you’re not going to eat any pork?

Homer: Right, Lisa. Some wonderful, magical animal.”

Pork with spiced rub and Apple dressing
I was at the store the other day and I saw a “Family Pack” of Pork Sirloin chops on sale. So, on a whim I picked up a package for Yes!Chef! When Yes!Chef! saw the package in the refrigerator, I shouted “Surprise. Happy Birthday! It’s a food challenge!” Yes, it was Y!C!’s birthday and he was quite surprised that he was going to be cooking for his own birthday.

Tender ribs with Broccoli Salad and red wine
So, it’s back to this…perfecting pork ribs. Yes!Chef! loved the last batch of ribs that he made, but he came across a technique that really intrigued him, so he had to try it. I’m always a willing guinea pig when it comes to most of his food and I will photograph anything he decides to cook.
