Hands on pork shoulder+jicama asian pear slaw+cabbage salad w pickled peanuts
Pork second courses
Well it's no secret that I love at Pork Shoulder! <br /> <br />It's huge, it isn't too dear, even when kindly raised ( much as I love to entertain with lamb its just so cost prohibitive), and it lends its self to a variety of moods and seasons. <br /> <br />I call this Hands on because, well you do have to put your hand on it quite a bit but also because its hands on meal--every bite can be something different! The pickled peanuts & cabbage-- I mean what goes better with pork- but off course if there are peanut allergies a substitute must be made-- texturally I'd say macadamia nuts- if its a no nuts situation them slip a few cube of jicama in for the variety of crunch. <br />I love an interactive meal, one with lots of colors and textures and bits and pieces - at it's heart this is Bo Saam, it's also a bit like that cliched hipster amalgam Korean Pork Tacos, a big hunk of pork with melty and crunchy fat surrounded by condiments and pickles and a platter of perfectly charred corn tortillas but it's an impressive and succulent piece of meat that will be remembered . ( I made this is summer for my brother and it's now on his wedding menu)
