Carolina Skewer 'Cue Review - chef_Tab - 09-26-2008 I got the idea to make this from HomeCulinarian. It is in the first weeknights cookbook. Sadly, I did not have the ingredients to make the Hoppin John salad to go with it because that sounds great too. Hopefully she will add her thoughts. I loved, loved, loved the pork done this way! I added lots of extra pepper flakes, but other than that followed the recipe. There were no leftovers and that makes me sad! It was very quick and easy to do and the flavor was fabulous. I will make this again and again. Easily a 10 in my book. I just read HomeCulinarian's review on the other thread. I forgot to mention I love vinegar. You will only like this if you are a vinegar lover too! Re: Carolina Skewer 'Cue Review - Gourmet_Mom - 09-26-2008 Theresa, could you post that recipe when you get a chance. I don't have that book. My Grilling book is the newer one. This sounds like something William would like. I'd also like the Hoppin' John Salad recipe as well, if you would....please?

Re: Carolina Skewer 'Cue Review - Lorraine - 09-26-2008 Thanks for the review. I love vinegar based sauces, the vinegary , the better. Re: Carolina Skewer 'Cue Review - bjcotton - 09-26-2008 Theresa sweetie, if you had MasterCook 9 you would only have to type the recipe once and could post it as many times as you wished Can you tell I'm a big fan of MC9?
