Meatloaf

This is the perfect antidote to the Sunday blues, not least because there will be enough left over to pack sandwiches for Monday’s lunch.  A mix of beef, pork, and bacon ensures meatiness, with Worcestershire sauce, a pinch of brown sugar, and cider vinegar added for good balance and occasional suggestions of sweetness.  Because the [...]

Grilled spice-rubbed pork tenderloin steaks with honey-chipotle barbecue sauce & Roasted Yams

Holy habanero this was good great.  However, if I were to make this again I would definitely make the bbq sauce less spicy.  I was sweating the entire meal, and although I love spicy foods, it was just too much for even me.  So I would probably not put the two tablespoons of adobo sauce [...]

I served these ribs for the main course.   Everyone loved these Asian [...]
