Most of the recipes are already in T & T
The first one I adopted and hold dear has to be the Pineapple Margahootie..many an enjoyable summer nights spent with that one.I have made more of Mimi's Sticky Chicken's than I can count.Cheezz, your Northwest Sugar Cured Salmon is called Cristian's salmon in this family ( thats my second grandson and it is his all time favorite and at 15 and 6'3 he can demolish a salmon as fast as any grizzly).Moyne's Mojo Marinade..I could eat roofing shingles if marinaded in that.AngAk, your Chocolate Poundcake is dearly loved and has been given to so many friends and family members. I put a little espresso in the ganache glaze if I add it in the cake (I may need to make one today).The Chicken in Poblano Cream is insane good.The list is wonderful and long.Orchid, I will make your Cola Braised Pork this sunday and report back. I have heard that barbeque sauce made with cola is good so I am looking forward to trying it.

I hadn't gotten even half way through reading this post when I thought, "this is one of
the best posts I have read!" So nice to read the feed back and many of those are my favorites as well. So thank you Rita and then I got to the end...I'm all atwitter! LOL I'm thrilled that someone else won't be scared of the weird combinations of ingredients in that recipe and will give it a try. I can't wait to hear back.

Cola Braised Pork... it's a hit!
Orchid,the Cola Braised Pork has my vote for T&T.I tend to be a tweaker of recipes but I made it as written. I thought it would be very sweet,how would you not taste all that cola? But it wasn't,the taste was like I had used chinese bead molasses to add depth to the sauce.I really liked the amount of ginger and chopping it increased the taste. I usually use the microplane or galic press for ginger.The pork was juicy and fall apart tender. I made a cucumber mint salad to go with and it complimented the pork nicely.I just combined a persian cucumber, chopped mint, rice wine vinegar,touch of oil and salt/pepper.
My daughter came for dinner and asked to take the leftovers (RATS!).Thank you for a delicious dinner I will be making this again.
