    This too, but make it crunchy peanut butter and chase it with a large ice cold glass of milk. MMM

    Not sure if I should be letting this one go so easily :grumble: BUT...

    3 medium sized pork steaks (cram 'em in a foil-lined 9x13in baking pan)
    3 tablespoons brown sugar (divided by tablespoons)
    3 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce, or, Worchestershire sauce (divided by tablespoons)
    3 tablespoons balsalmic vinegar (yep, you guess it - divided by tablespoons)
    2 tablespoons unsalted butter, cut into small chunks

    Cram the pork steaks into the 9x13 pan. It's ok if they overlap a little bit, but don't stack them on top of each other.

    Sprinkle 1 tablespoon of brown sugar over each pork steak.

    Sprinkle 1 tablespon of the soy sauce (or Worchestershire) AND 1 tablespoon balsalmic vinegar over each steak.

    Dab butter evenly over steaks.

    Tightly seal top of pan with foil.

    Bake at 350F for 45-50 minutes. Remove foil from top. Bake for 15-20 minutes more.

    You won't even need a knife. :love:

    2 julienned apples
    lightly candied almonds / walnuts / pecans (1 c. almonds, tsp of oil, tsp of sugar, cook until golden)
    either goat cheese or bleu cheese
    sometimes lettuce
    raspberry vinegar
    a good quality olive oil.

    Sometimes I add the lettuce, sometimes I don't.

    When that fails,
    Tortilla chips on a plate, salsa, cheddar cheese, microwaved until the cheese melts. Sour cream, if I have it. :)

    Puerco Pibil, as described on the DVD extras for Once Upon A Time In Mexico.

    Serve with tortillas and homemade salsa.
