This Big Piggy
Were I not already married, “Would you like to split half a pig with me?” would be the pickup line that got my attention. As it was, the request came from my neighbor, who wanted to split a meat order … Continue reading
Pot-Roast Half Pig’s Head
I had pig parts left over after the Fifth Annual Birthday Dinner, so I consulted Fergus Henderson’s Beyond Nose to Tail: More Omnivorous Recipes for the Adventurous Cook for inspiration. It didn’t take long to find this recipe, and his … Continue reading
Chicken and Pig’s Trotter
Even though I cooked this dish last weekend, my writing about it today makes it the perfect conclusion to the bacon trilogy (trilogies aren’t just for fantasy novels). So we’ll pretend that I used my newly-smoked bacon instead of a … Continue reading
The Mostly-Homemade BLT
What to do with my newly-smoked bacon? Put it to the test in the vehicle designed explicitly to highlight its flavor: the bacon, lettuce, and tomato sandwich, the humble – potentially mighty – BLT. Inspired by Michael Ruhlman’s BLT From … Continue reading
Bacon

Momofuku Pork Buns
My recent trip to H Mart was for more than informational and educational purposes. I was in search of a key ingredient: frozen Chinese mantou buns, which I had been unable to find at any of my local markets. I … Continue reading
Lardo
It’s not a pre-New Year’s motivational insult, it’s Italian cured pork fat. I had three pounds of pork fatback that was a gift from my CSA, so I looked for something to do with it. My choices came down to … Continue reading
Meat Crazy
The threat of bad weather will always separate the hardcore cooks from the dilettantes. There we were, lined up next to a freezer van, waiting to score this month’s CSA delivery before the storm arrived. As always, it was worth … Continue reading
Porchetta with Roasted Fingerlings
I had forgotten about this pork dish, a Tuscan classic that She Who Must Be Obeyed and I ate on our honeymoon in Italy, back when Sylvio Berlusiconi was first running for office and not being punched in the face.When … Continue reading
