I cut mine up into cubes and make a curry when the shake and bake gets tired.

Whatever you do, brine first.

brown the pork in a pan both sides with alittle bit of olive oil, then add a jar of sweet and red cabbage, cover and simmer until cooked to your liking. This is different and it tastes so good!

I am a huge fan of pork steaks. I put them in marinade (I like Daddy Hinkles original flavor marinade) and then grill them. I think they're much better tasting than beef steaks. They are fatty but you can trim them up and a little goes a long way. These have to be one of my all time favorite cuts of meat. : ) good luck!

I like my pork chops with a sweet taste. i use 2 chops, browned on both sides. apples, red onion with a honey glaze

Pork roast in the crock pot with some Salsa and a packet of reduced Sodium McCormicks Taco Seasoning.

Pork Taco (I will be making this tomorrow )

I just put in a dish with BBQ sauce smeared on top and cook my pork loin a 325 degrees for 20 minutes a pound. Always yummy with very little leftovers.

Not sure if you have a crock pot but if so... this is my favorite: boneless thin pork chops (about 4) a packet of the hill country ranch packet, and a can of cream of chicken soup with a can of water (I use reduced fat) then just put it all in the crock pout and cook on low for about 5 hours. Very tender and delicious. Sometimes we put it over brown rice!

bump cos I love pork ! yummy !

Slow cooked pork shoulder --- just toss it in with carrots, celery, onion, garlic, and whatever herbs, and you're golden. Sometimes I add some tomato paste, and chipotle --- or lime and cilantro (Mexican) ---- easy to modify to whatever tastes ye have. Set it at night, and it's ready to pack to work in the morning.

Dredge pork chops in seasoned flour (salt and pepper, ect)....pan sear on each side just for a couple minutes. In a large pot, layer seared chops and sliced onion...make a few layers. Cover chops/onions just barely with water. Let cook on the stove for 45 minutes to an hour on medium heat (check for done-ness of course depending on the thickness of your chops)..as the chops cook, they make their own gravy. Maybe not super light...but yummy! If your gravy needs more seasoning or thickening, add more seasoning or a flour slurry. Sometimes I add worcestershire sauce if needed to the gravy depending on how flavorful the chops make it.

Another very easy one....I take two racks of baby backs, coat them lightly in seasoning salt and throw them in the crock pot on their sides curled around the sides of the pot. Cook on low for however long you want....the meat will either fall off the bone like carnitas or if I take them out sooner (before cooking to the point of falling off the bone), I throw them on the BBQ with some sweet baby rays and they become ribs. Either way, they are super easy and delish.

Made a quick marinade the other night from 1/2 cup of orange juice mixed with a McCormicks garlic and herb seasoning pack. Quick, simple, tasty. We marinated them for a couple hours and then grilled them. I ate leftovers on a salad the next day which was awesome.

Too late for tonight but Crock-pot carnitas are a favorite around here. I shared this with another MFPer and she like it also.
Place a 4-5 pork loin roast in a crock pot add chicken broth about 2 inches up the side, coat exposed meat with cumin, coriander, oregano, garlic, onion powder, smoked chipotle or chili powder. I do this to taste, we like lots of cumin but not too much heat from the chipotle. cook on medium for 5-6 hr, shred the meat into the broth, add more broth if very dry. Let shredded meat soak up broth for about 10 minutes. I serve it with shredded cabbage dressed with lime juice and fresh cilantro and soft tortillas. My husband likes rice with it too.

Growing up, my grandma always took pork, potatoes cut in large chunks, carrots cut in large chunks and cabbage and simmered it on the stove covered in tin foil with water for an hour to an hour and 15 minutes. I loved it! It's been a long time since I had it and it's on the menu this week
