Review: Hawaiian Pork Stir-Fry - esgunn - 07-01-2008
From Cuisine for Two. Well almost Hawaiian...
My pineapple was bad, so I didn't add pineapple and I did not serve in Pineapple boats. BUT - We really liked this stir fry. It was very easy and good. I will make again.

Has this recipe been posted already? If not, please do so. I would love to try it.
One of our local stores has a great deal on pineapples right now: they have two of them wrapped together in one of those net-like bags, for $1.31! YUMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMM!
Of course, I'll make people even more jealous by saying that they are usually $1 each. There's just nothing like living where they're grown. :-)

Of course I am jealous- pineapples are $4.99 each right now here in NH.
They must be so good, when they are so fresh, Labs.

Jean, Oh Jean, where is that mean woman? Labs, I'm going to get her to come whip your butt! I've been thinking about pineapples for days now and no one to share it with.
Re: Review: Hawaiian Pork Stir-Fry - labradors - 07-01-2008
They are wonderful, and I love pineapple!
All things considered, it's more surprising that they can be THAT inexpensive here, and the higher cost is NOT surprising. I say that because they really involve a lot of work. Each pineapple is individually wrapped while on the plant, they don't grow in huge bunches, and they are spread out over huge fields.
Re: Review: Hawaiian Pork Stir-Fry - esgunn - 07-02-2008
Labs, OOOhhh. I paid $3.00 a pound for that one - and it was bad!
But, they gave me a new one to replace it. I will try and get it typed up tomorrow.

Thanks. Eagerly awaiting. :-)
Re: Review: Hawaiian Pork Stir-Fry - cjs - 07-02-2008
remind me Billy (Just ask Daphne about my memory
) and we'll fix this while you're here. There's another one we did a while back (a lot of us here) pineapple, chicken on a cedar plank - didn't we? We can do that also.

Aw, Jean...MOI? LOL!
Lab's that's down right mean! I haven't tried this for that very reason.
Thanks for the review Erin!
