Pork

Stuffed crust pizza with pepperoni, mushroom, and pineapple toppings

A stuffed crust pizza.

Visually I see pork as done when the juices run clear from a cut next to the bone and the meat doesn't look very red or pink. You don't want to overcook though, pork is different from chicken in that a little pink in the meat is okay that goes along with clear juices in a cut from the thickest area.

140 = pre-cooked ham is done

160 = done

165 = When I'm done , I always cook to this.

A good pork shoulder roast can be a very savory main dish. Bake it until it hits temperature and serve it up with mashed potatoes in which you've drizzled some of the drippings, or nest it in veggies to bake. Riblets or other cuts can have some marinade or BBQ sauce tossed on them, stuck in some foil, and baked at 350 to be the meat dish.

I liked this recipe. Not amazing or to go on regular rotation, but good enough for using up what was on hand when I didn't wish to go to the store. Similar to shepherd's pie. I used a slightly different bag of mixed vegetables, instant potatoes, and bullion. I used about 2/3's as much meat as recommended. Was fine. The taste is pot pie.

I made this as directed except with no onion powder and I used green apples. It is a good recipe and I recommend it. We all enjoyed it.

I used a whole 4 oz can of tomato paste, more meat went in, and mild salsa. The soup is a nice taste.

Quite delicious, pleasant surprise. Made as directed, save used a dutch oven and so many cups of broth for to prevent scorching. Did have to watch for scorching and rotate the meat periodically.

Another good recipe.
