Carnitas

Carnitas by Sergio Hernandez

Carnitas are the Mexican version of pulled pork. Braised first in a spicy sauce, pork shoulder is slow cooked until so tender the meat just shreds easily with a fork, then it's roasted at high heat to make crispy browned bits full of flavor.

Creole Spiced Pork Chops

Creole Spiced Pork Chops by Amos Miller

Pork chops with chops! These nicely spiced cuts can be toned up or down, depending on your taste. Gluten-free diners will enjoy these with King Arthur, Domata or Hodgson Mill flour. All Purpose works just fine. Thanks to Chef Austin for the inspiration!

Ribs can take a long time to cook, but it's worth it. Wonderful sweet and sour mixture to the glaze. You'll love it.

A Different Pork Pozole

A Different Pork Pozole by Bob Vincent

This is a different take on Pozole that I concocted over the weeked. It is heavy on pork/chorizo with less Hominy than most recipes. I smoked the pork/chorizo with Mesquite wood for added flavor but browned in oil would be fine if you don't have a smoker. I also added celery, carrots and a couple of red potatoes. I used canned…

Carnitas

Carnitas by coachjeff

Of all the mexican style meats, Carnitas is by far my favorite. Its great to serve in simple tacos or as a main course. Made of flavorful pork with minimal seasonings, its the two step cooking process that puts carnitas over the top. First its braised, or slowly roasted until its fork tender. Then its fried until a fine crust adds a…

Spicey Pulled Pork

Spicey Pulled Pork by Patrick Travis

This is a braised pulled pork that makes a great sandwich or use it for a tex-mex taco salad. Use an inexpensive cut of pork as it will cook until tender and it shreds easily with a fork.

Cajun Pork Chops in Gravy

Cajun Pork Chops in Gravy by Ron Baldwin

Seems like anything with added cayenne pepper is cajun thse days - but this recipe is especially good and has authentic roots. Highly-spiced pork chops (and you can substitute skinless chicken breasts for dietary considerationd and it will still be great) finished with a gravy made in the same pan. Add a side of rice or mashed…

Southern Low Country Braised Pig's Feet

Southern Low Country Braised Pig's Feet by Smokinhotchef

This recipe sings low country with high notes. A very significant part of African American heritage and culture. Pig's feet, along with the other 'undesirable' discarded parts, like ears and chittlins' were a staple in the slaves' diets as well as pinto beans and cornbread, also their personal vegetable gardens. This was sustainable…

Chiapas Pot Roasted Pork - Cochito Chiapaneco

Chiapas Pot Roasted Pork - Cochito Chiapaneco by John Spottiswood

I adapted this delicious, crispy-edged meat recipe from Rick Bayless's Mexican Kitchen. Nancy and I used to eat at his restaurant, the Frontera Grill, when we lived in Chicago. I served this over black beans and rice along with my spicy Ropa Vieja recipe and it was a huge hit. This would be a great alternative to carnitas for a…

Sage Braised Boneless Pork Loin Chops

Sage Braised Boneless Pork Loin Chops by Kristy O'Connor

At about $2 per pound, whole pork loin is not only delicious, it’s a great value. I cut my own chops from a 9 lb loin, about an inch and a half thick. If you haven’t tried this before, it is incredibly EASY! Braising the chops keeps them moist and the liquid makes a great gravy…

Lone Star Pork & Cabbage

Lone Star Pork & Cabbage by Tracy Morris

We didn't eat a lot of pork in my house growing up. I grew up thinking that beyond ham and bacon, pork was something that Yankees eat. And yes, we did use that term. Still do in certain parts. I was a little crazy about folks from the northeast as a young woman. I get along peculiarly well with people who hail from The City (as those…
