Tostadas with Shredded Pork and Spices by Robyn Savoie

Crisp fried tortillas topped with re-fried beans and spiced shredded pork make a delectable treat and are often sold from stalls in Mexican City streets.

Mesquite Smoked Pork Tenderloin with Bourbon-Ancho/Pasilla Sauce

Mesquite Smoked Pork Tenderloin with Bourbon-Ancho/Pasilla Sauce by Bob Vincent

This recipe is adapted from one in Bobby Flay's Mesa Grill cookbook. The original browned the pork then roasted it in the oven. Instead I smoked the pork with Mesquite wood chunks. Mesquite can overpower food and make it bitter if too much is used…
