Smoked Pork Three Ways

One of the best investments we have ever made is the propane smoker. Smoked meats are always so delicious and kick up the flavor of any meal. Last week Brandon smoked a pork loin. It took about 4 hours. He used a rub that Julie and Erich brought him from Canada, and then added some of his own seasonings, as he does with pretty much every recipe he tries. He smoked enough meat for the bulk of the week and was able to make three unique and wonderful meals out of it.

The first was sliced pork with hominy, artichoke hearts, and cotilla cheese. He used the La Victoria red taco sauce for a little added flavor.


The next night he threw together an amazing salad with the chopped pork, spinach, sun dried tomatoes, and again sprinkled with cotilla cheese.

Finally, we had some delectable quesadillas with flour tortillas, Mexican blended cheese, white beans, and zucchini slices.

All in all it was quite a successful week and fairly simple!
