I’ve been working on great pulled pork recipe that would be easy to do at home that doesn’t involve a crockpot. Not that a crockpot can’t make pulled pork, but I wanted pulled pork that also had texture; a bark on the outside almost as if it had been smoked. To get this Boston Butt right I needed to do it in the oven, and I needed the perfect dry rub. Which got me thinking, why not try a Coffee Dry Rubbed Boston Butt for a little cool weather pulled pork action?

It’s finally tomato season in the South. The farmers markets are bursting with the colors of every heirloom tomato imaginable and your home garden is probably over flowing with tomatoes of all sorts. There is nothing like the season’s first BLT, the second BLT and third, until you’re still looking at a pile of tomatoes and suddenly not so interested in another boring BLT. Don’t get me wrong, there is nothing like a garden picked BLT where the star is some unknown heirloom exploding with its sweet acidic glory, but what if I could add some texture? I give you my Southern food twist on the classic BLT – the “BLORT” Bacon Lettuce Onion Ring & Tomato Sandwich.

Pork is the life blood and culinary soul of some of the finest Southern foods.

The Hungry Southerner has an undeniable passion for pork and all things bacon; suckers of a certain variety.

Does the Maple Bacon coffee live up to the same expectations that Bacon Marmalade has set for us? Will it help us further our cause for new and exciting “Bacon Delivery Systems”?

It’s no secret that The Hungry Southerner has a passion for all things pork, especially bacon. Recently we’ve developed a love affair with a wonderful little 4oz jar of deliciousness better known as Bacon Marmalade. It was a pure accident that we met, I discovered Bacon Marmalade through a fellow blogger, Liza de Guia, at Food Curated. I quickly contacted the Bacon Marmalade website, and waited patiently for our 3 precious jars to arrive. We did a short preview to help manage our own excitement and three of the “Hungry Southerners” set off to figure out what to do with our Bacon Marmalade. Here’s our review of a Southern Food, born out of a happy accident.

Put bacon in just about anything, and you have you just raised its wow factor by 100%. Bacon is my Southern vise, I love it in everything, and will try it in just about any form. I’ve even been working on how to use bacon fat in chocolate chip cookies, but that doesn’t compare to the accidental genius of Chef Ross Hutchinson and his “Bacon Marmalade” . Bacon what you’re asking?
