I don't think we've had pork thread before but I figure now is the time since I've learned that it goes well with payoffs related to road construction corruption. What is everyone's favorite pork related products? I'm partial to the taco truck down on Golden State Boulevard south of Fresno and their delicious pork carnitas. They are so good in fact my wife and I actually hired the truck to cater our wedding in 2019.
Well, bacon, obviously.
Pulled pork would be a close second. Chipotle has the best carnitas (which is basically Spanish for pulled pork, for anyone that doesn't know).
Pepperoni comes close to bacon.
Nice, crispy pork belly
Lardo on some nice charred bread
Chicharrones
Jokbal (Korean braised trotters)
Lechon (Philippines style roasted suckling pig)
Sisig (Philippines style sauteed pork cheek with onions, peppers, and calamansi juice)

I saw the title for this thread and was prepared for a discussion on pork in legislation. I'm not disappointed that I was wrong.
Now, that being said, bacon is the best pork.

If someone wants to pass legislation that I need to have some sort of pork product for breakfast every morning, fine by me.
Pepperoni. Bacon. Ribs. Prosciutto. BBQ.

This would be the most obvious bipartisan piece legislation ever to exist.
My dog loves it and I do too but I get a stomachache by having too much of it.
There must not be vegans on here. I haven't seen anyone viciously object to this thread yet. But anyways, pulled pork on a bun with some barbecue sauce, coleslaw, and cornbread is mouth-watering.
I've never met a pork that I didn't like. I even like goetta and scrapple. Don't know that I have one favorite, but if I had to choose it would be a sausage of some type, probably a mettwurst or bratwurst.
I love doing pork roasts on the grill. Makes for some very happy sandwiches over the next few days.

Bob Evans has the best hot pork sausage. But they don't serve it in their restaurants. Their mild pork sausage is good, but nothing to write home about. Grocery stores in North Carolina carry their microwavable mashed potatoes, but not their sausage products. Therefore, I'll do the North Carolina thing and vote for Neese's Liver Pudding (and I'll take seconds on Neese's Souse).

I actually don't recall anyone on here mentioning they were a vegetarian or vegan. That's not to say there aren't any but, if there are, I guess they must not be very vocal about it.
I can inhale a good ham salad (cut into cubes about the size of pencil erasers, mix about 20:1 with celery cut to a similar size and then mayo to coat).

I'm effectively a pescatarian since that's what my wife is. So I probably only eat pork maybe once a month at most. Sad for me, I know. I also really like veggies, so there's that.

Allow me! ...Not cause I'm a vegan, I just don't regularly eat pork. Proteins of choice for me are beef, chicken, and turkey, in that order. I find pork difficult to work with when I do cook it.
That being said, I do like bacon, sausage, and on pizza, pepperoni. But I don't go out of my way to keep it stocked at home (except for sausage, but that's for my wife more than me), and I don't add bacon to sandwiches and such very often.

That sounded scarily accurate. I'm pretty much the exact same, except I don't stock sausage at home. I stopped eating bacon regularly a while ago because of how it can clog your heart. When I do I have it, it's usually in a BLT. And I never cook pork, I just get it for take-out which most of the time is when I'm on vacation. If you're ever in the Washington, DC area, you should try the pork sandwiches from Sloppy Mama's.

My wife and I have found that a pork tenderloin is fairly easy to work with, but leftovers somehow still end up being tough. We also have a barbecue pork shoulder in the deep freeze that we'll stick in the crock pot one of these days. Honestly, the crock pot has become our go-to pot of choice for pork: probably the most popular thing to do with it in our house is to make crock pot pulled pork for Chipotle-style burrito bowls. Also, ground pork makes for pretty good Asian-inspired dishes.

For a law to be constitutional, it couldn't apply to Max alone. It would have to be worded something like "persons legally domiciled in the state of California known to have between 13,000 and 14,000 posts on the AARoads forum". I don't know if that applies to anyone else, but it
could.
I am in favor of this law because it would mean, because I can change anyone's post count at will, I get to decide who is and isn't required to eat pork.

That's the plot of Fury Road 2.
Anyway:
Pepperoni (on pizza) that curls up and crisps at the edges.
Bacon that shatters into pieces when you hit it with a fork.
Pulled pork bbq on toasted garlic bun.
Tonkatsu with a choice of dipping sauces.
Korean spicy pork.
Filipino sweet BBQ on skewers, don't know the name for it, we just call it "BBQ"
Longanisa (with garlic fried rice and egg, and whatever leftovers you have around)
Stuff I don't care about:
Ribs. Sure, as part of a meat plate, but I'd never order ribs as a main. There's usually better choices
Stuff I'll eat a little of, only to be polite:
Ham.

The secret is to keep the pork moist. It's best to baste it like turkey, but I get lazy and pour on plenty of water. You ought to add the same seasoning to the water, so as not to water down the flavor of the meat. And don't throw away the pork stock, as it will serve as seasoning for everything else. We make pork-flavored ice cubes (I'm sometimes tempted to eat them).
Pork is an everything thing here in Central Carolina. We live on the border between Eastern-style barbecue (pulled pork using vinegar sauce with hot red pepper seeds) and Lexington-style barbecue (chopped shoulder using spicy vinegar sauce with a hint of tomato), and here in the Triangle we often blend the two concepts (chopped shoulder using vinegar sauce with hot red pepper seeds). Pig pickin' was only for the rich folks in West Virginia; whereas almost all of the locals here have a pig cooker here. Hillsborough is home to the annual Hog Day festival; the winner of the barbecue contest gets stuck with providing all of sauce for next year's festival.

The vast majority of Christians observe Lent, but many Protestants don't really do the no-meat-Friday thing since they see it only as a creation of the Catholic church.

Feet (of all animals) are typically flat, or else they wouldn't work as feet. There's a decent possibility that the hooves are colored teal but not distinguished from the background.

Episcopalians observe Lent. Many give up red meat on Fridays in Lent.
In my consulting job, I wore many hats and had many bosses. One of them was from Austria. He really loved America except for one thing, he couldn't find any good pork. He loved his five-star restaurants, so I constantly reminded him that most folks prepare pork at home, thus it's not very common in fancy places. So when we started a big project in downtown Miami, I dragged him to a hole-in-the-wall Cuban restaurant tucked behind the old Woolworth's. For $3, they brought him the biggest plate of pork roast with black beans that I've ever seen. We were hooked, and ate there whenever we were available during daylight hours (most of the time we were working midnights and he stayed away).
In the late 1990s, he got transferred to Amsterdam and I went over to work for him quite a few times. One particular weekend, he got a hankering for pork and had me drive all of us over to Aachen, just across the border into southwest Germany. Sure enough, he found a Bavarian-themed tavern that specialized in haxe (pork knuckle). They brought out this huge ham hock. Being from West Virginia, you know, ham hocks were for the rich folks. I was hooked. I came back the next night and had the eisbein (pickled pork knuckle). Even better.
I reminded him frequently that he needed to visit North Carolina more often.

Jamón is the Spanish word for "ham", and as such is used for any type of ham. We distinguish types by adding an adjective, thus cured ham is (mostly) called
jamón serrano. Regular ham is called
jamón de York, even though there's no proof it comes from York, England.

The hooves are delicious? You can't even make gelatin out of those, can you?
Feet (of all animals) are typically flat, or else they wouldn't work as feet. There's a decent possibility that the hooves are colored teal but not distinguished from the background.
The text box, on the other hand...
My grandmother loved pickled pig's feet.

I could definitely go for a full plate of jamón ibérico right now, maybe with a nice Crianza from Rioja.
Rioja has some nice red wines. Have you tried Malbec from Argentina? Similarly nice.
You sir, are a gentleman and a scholar. Those are among my favorite types of wines!

If you dig those, try Priorat from Spain (a little bigger than Rioja) or Bonarda from Argentina (a little lighter/more fruit driven).

Will do. Thank you!
Just had a pork rib for dinner tonight. Might wife cleaned out four packs of them on clearance at Vons the other day and has been cooking them in the air fryer.

Hope you enjoyed! I just gained 5 pounds thinking about them.

To that end, it's probably good that I do distance runs almost every morning to get a caloric intake gap going. The ribs are huge and very marbled.

Quote from: JoePCool14 on March 01, 2021, 07:57:04 PM...Christians during Lent might have something to say about that one. :awesomeface:
Huh? Catholics observe Lent; I don't know of any Protestant denominations that do.
Episcopalians observe Lent. Many give up red meat on Fridays in Lent.
Episcopalians and Presbyterians are often known as "watered-down Catholics" here.
I grew up in the Christian Church just up the road and am currently a member of a Baptist Church. Lent wasn't observed in either congregation. And the Episcopalian I worked with for several years didn't openly observe Lent and he sure didn't forego meat.
For pork, I think of my "uncle" Teddy's (fried) Pork Chop Sandwiches.
Unreal! This huge smoked ham from New Braunfels just showed up on my doorstep a few minutes ago. My sister in Texas sent one to us and to my sister in West Virginia. Guess what we're having for dinner for the next two months or so.

Do I see my love of pork going up in smoke? Never fear, I'll freeze a bunch for later. They'll run me out of the Carolinas if I lose my taste for pork.
Just received my pork from a Door Dash delivery and they made my food wrong. What a waste of money. They can't send another one out free of charge but they will let me come to the store to get one. I had to Door Dash it in the first place.

I haven't used either much, but I once ordered a regular pick up at Cracker Barrel, and an Uber Eats driver took my meal.

Did you see them take it, or how did you know that's what happened?

It was their explanation for why it took so long to get our food.

Gotcha. I guess I never thought about that, but they could do it on purpose and get away with it pretty easily.

We got free meal coupons from it. They weren't trying to deceive us.

Sorry, poor wording on my part. I see how it looked like I was referring to Cracker Barrel, but I was actually referring to the Uber Eats driver. It would be easy for them to unsuspectingly grab someone else's stuff.
