Have a savory, Mexican-style sandwich with slow-cooked pork for your next party or tailgate!  This Pulled Pork Cemita recipe is a nice twist on traditional pulled pork; make them with full-sized buns as a full sandwich, or use smaller buns to make them into bite-sized sliders.

The wonderful tailgate group that I am a part of often has all sorts of elaborate things to serve all of the hungry eaters that pass through, but as a warm-up, they’ll often have some small sandwiches or “sliders” to go with the basic snack food.  This pulled pork cemita recipe is great for that–and hey, after having fried salami, turkey and mayo, or something very basic like that for a while, you have a hankering for something a little different.  This will give your next barbecue, tailgate, or football party a little Mexican flair, and thanks to the convenience of the Crock-Pot (or whatever slow cooker you prefer), it’s not all that difficult to put together.

Quick tip: Add an extra kick to this recipe by dumping in a few shots of Frank’s Red Hot Sauce.

In a food rut?  Feel like breaking out the grill but don’t want anything too complicated or too same-old, same-old?  Then try this Honey Sriracha Orange Chicken!  Wow everyone with the name, blow them away with the flavor!  It is simple enough for a weeknight family meal but sure to thrill your guests at your next grill-out!

Repeat after me:  “Asian food does NOT have to be hard.”  Sure, as with any food tradition, there are plenty of recipes out there that require a great deal of time, skill, or both, and an expert cook in search of a true gourmet challenge may want to attempt them once in a while.  But you don’t HAVE to be a brilliant master chef or endure an intense labor of love to put together a delicious Asian-style dish.

I found this recipe to be incredibly easy to follow, and the results were delicious.  That juicy blend of sweet and spicy really hit the spot, and it was great for getting me out of that food rut that I had fallen into recently–yes, it even happens to me, sometimes.  (It was also a great excuse to break out the grill on a pleasant summer evening during the workweek.)
