Re: (...)
This is from the Sandwiches & Salads book. I made it just a year ago, but changed/subbed so many things I didn't do a review. Last night I made it just like the recipe except for a smaller chunk of pork loin. This is so easy and quick and really delicious. And the broth is very tasty. I brined the pork for about 3 hours first.
Didn't make the Creamy apple slaw suggested to go with it, we have to many veggies and fruit to eat up.
I'd give this a strong 8 for flavor.

BTW, thanks for the quick tip! I'm hoping to be off to bulk buy my meats again for next month this weekend....adding pork loin. I'll cut some chops and save a chunk for this!

No, you're not losing it, just a little sophisticated humor, don't you know.

"Perfect for you poor, poor workers..." - figured that would earn me some nasty comment.

Sweetie, I was referring to the poor (but lovable) slobs still having to work. Really more than you ever wanted to know about a post, eh?

Now for payday and a replacement copy of MC and a replacement for this worn out piece of CRAP keyboard! I'm sick of holding the batteries, just so and beating the keys repeatedly!!!!!!! NOT FUN! OR encouraging for chatting!!!!!
