My public market haul included pineapple and fresh corn on the cob so I knew I had to combine it with the pork chops and dirty rice I was making for dinner. I typed in quick corn and pineapple salsa, then waited for what the web could magic up. The first three links included Rachael Ray's recipe for Grilled Pineapple and Corn Salsa which was pretty much what I googled for - a result I guess!
Yay or Nay: Yay
I mean, I didn't even look at the recipe...I pretty much looked at the ingredients and then just made it up as I went along. I knew I wanted raw corn but I grilled up the poblano (which I had leftover from Sofritas last week), chopped everything up and mixed it together. Voila, easy peasy and a nice fresh side for dinner!
Who doesn't love a mouthful of BBQ? I know I do so replicating this at home should be a breeze. I was first introduced to BBQ when I first came to Rochester and ate at Sticky Lips. The tangy sauce and the super tender meat all piled on top of a oh-so-right bun won me over that night. Fueling my love of BBQ was Man vs. Food which featured a lot and I mean A LOT of BBQ joints. Just thinking of it makes me salivate! Traveling around the US I have had my fair share of BBQ and Tennessee has some of the best!
I must confess this isn't my first time making this so I know it is already a yay, but if you're looking for a decent and properly easy recipe for pulled pork this is it!
Yay or Nay: Yay
As above, it makes for some good pulled pork. I didn't have any brown sugar to hand so I used regular granulated sugar and it didn't change the flavour that much. I used it for two meals, tacos and sandwiches (burgers) the day after!
