She Loves Wine's Incredible Pulled Pork

CROCKPOT  best to do overnight on a weekend

4 - 5# pork Butt (Aldi)

Lee & Perrins Worcestershire  Sauce

Garlic Powder
Fresh Cracked Pepper
Lawrys Seasoned Salt

Remove wrapping from pork butt, it will wrapped in twine, leave twine on.

Rinse under cold water and place fat side up in crockpot.

Douse top of roast with Worcestershire sauce.

Sprinkle generous amount of garlic POWDER on top of roast, followed by black pepper and 2 tsp of seasoned salt. 

Cover and cook on low 10 - 12 hours. Do NOT add liquid, it will make plenty.

Remove twine from roast and discard. Remove fat.

Return roast to CROCKPOT and shredd with two forks.

Adjust seasonings.I usually add more garlic powder and pepper. I usually add more garlic powder and pepper. Salt can be added at the table, if needed.

Let shredded pork cook another hour to absorb seasonings. If it's not super tender, let it cook until it is. Allow pork to cool in its own juice. Refrigerate. Skim fat off.

Use or package in freezer bags for future meals.

If adding BBQ sauce to your pork, make sure to include some of the natural juices to keep it moist. If making a sandwich as is, make sure to use a slotted spoon or your bun will be soggy!

Tip- if you like coleslaw on your pulled pork sandwich, pick some up at KFC.

Jan's Napa Salad - Award Winning!

Chop and put in a large bowl to chill :

1 or 2 Heads of Napa Lettuce – torn into bite-size pieces

8 green onions sliced – including the green tops

1 package of dried cranberries (optional) 

 

In a saucepan:

Melt butter and saute the Ramen noodles and sesame seeds over medium low heat until they are lightly browned.  Set aside and cool.

1 stick butter

2 tsp sesame seeds

2 packages of Ramen Noodles  (do NOT use seasoning, just the noodles)

1 small package of sliced almonds 

 

Dressing: Mix in a shaker container or jar.  Shake and pour over chilled salad immediately before serving . Most likely you will not need all of this for 1 head of cabbage .  What seems like a lot will shrink down considerably . This salad does not keep well so plan to eat it all when you serve it or just add the dressing to individual servings.

1 cup vegetable oil

1 cup sugar 

½ cup rice vinegar 

4 tsp soy sauce 

 

For 6 people or less – I only use 1 head of napa cabbage. I often add left over chicken or shredded rotisserie chicken if I’m making this a main meal and serve with crusty bread.

 

When my sons were little I doubled the topping.

Crustless Spinach, Bacon, Onion, Feta and Cheddar Quiche

Here you go..... I've been making this for years and I don't measure anything so I'll give you my guesstimates. You can't mess this up ...it's a great basic recipe to make your own creation. 

 Deep quiche dish, mine is pottery so I grease it with bacon grease. Mom's is glazed, I don't grease that one. (Or use a cast iron skillet or deep pie plate) I made this for low carb high fat diet...

 8 strips of your favorite bacon cooked, not crispy (crumbled)

 I large onion, sliced into thin rings

 1 TBSP sugar (skip if you don't want to Caramelize onions or are diabetic)

 1 package frozen spinach, thawed and very well squeezed and drained 

 1 hefty tsp chopped garlic ( I use stuff in the jar) 

 1 hefty tsp dried Italian herbs 

 1 pint heavy cream 

 3 oz feta cheese with tomato and basil (half of the 6 oz pkg)

 2 cups sharp cheddar cheese shredded 

 3 large eggs well beaten (if I have an extra yolk or two around I will also add those) 

 Here we go: 

 Fry bacon in large skillet.... I do it in batches and leave grease in, just keep adding bacon, it cooks softer that way. Remove bacon to a plate covered with paper towels to drain and cool until you can crumble it. 

 To the skillet of bacon grease....add the large onion, sliced into rings....cook until they are limp and Caramelizing. I add the sugar and stir them constantly until well caramelized. DRAIN THESE WELL ON A LOT OF PAPER TOWELS.

 In a large bowl, beat 3 eggs well, add garlic and Italian herbs, heavy cream and add the well drained spinach and feta cheese. Set mixture aside. 

 Assemble quiche- 

 Bacon goes down first 

Top with cooked onions

Top with 2 cups shredded cheddar cheese 

Slowly pour egg mixture over the top and spread evenly. 

 Bake at 350 degrees for 35- 50 minutes or until butter knife inserted into the middle comes out clean.

 Remove from oven and let set 10-15 minutes before serving. 

Enjoy.

 It's good cold.

 Low sodium version - use chicken instead of bacon and use Swiss cheese instead of cheddar 

 Other combos you might like (don't expect them to top bacon) 

       Sausage , broccoli cheddar 

       Sausage zucchini, cheddar 

       Add mushrooms, sun-dried tomatoes, left over potatoes...etc 

There's no real recipe....you can't mess this up.

 I personally love the feta cheese combined with cheddar.
