OK, who’s going to start the 1st Annual Pork Recipe FReepathon in honor of ramalamadingdong?
Or "O Come All Ye Suicide Bombers"
If I were the Samalians, I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for the check from CAIR to arrive. That money will go to terrorists.
I like making Rumaki —marinated chicken liver water chestnut wrapped in bacon skewered with toothpick and broiled or grilled. Then eat them after dipping in in hot mustard and/or sweet and sour sauce...nice for hot summer nite snack or meal...:)
Anyone have a good pulled pork recipe? I am serious.
Bacon for breakfast
Pork ribs for lunch
Pork roast for supper
drop the trash at the ground zero mosque

Celebrate with a pig roast!!!
This is wrong, but good!
Orvil Newtons Renegade Chili
1 ½ Lbs chuck or round beef
1 ½ Lbs lean pork
¼ lb good smoked bacon
One medium yellow onion
6 to eight cloves garlic
fresh chili peppers: a habanero, a couple of poblanos, a couple of jalapenos and a couple of fresnos
dried whole chili peppers: four to six New Mexico red
2 tbs cumin (Or more if you like)
2 tbs oregano
2 tbs paprika
a little salt and black pepper
NOTE: NO TOMATOES - NO BEANS
Chop the onion and garlic
Slice the fresh peppers and remove the seeds
NOTE: wear rubber gloves and safety glasses. Im not kidding.
Cut the beef and pork into one inch cubes and trim off as much fat as possible
Chop up the bacon and cook in a large skillet
Set aside the cooked bacon and sauté the beef and pork in the bacon grease.
Remove the beef and pork and place in a large stew pot.
Sauté the onion and garlic.
Add the sliced peppers when the onion is translucent.
Add the spices and stir together over the heat for a minute or two then add it all to the stew pot.
Add the dried peppers, add water to cover, cover the pot and simmer for a few hours.
Let cool and skim off the excess grease (Or not).
Best if allowed to sit, refrigerated, for a couple of days before serving.
Serve with pinto beans and tortillas.(And cold Lone Star)
ok, it is wrong, i apologize to any offended—i won’t observe the holiday, but I will try to refrain from pork jokes, etc.
Thanks for the great recipe anyway :)
No, no, I meant the rcipe is wrong for hardcore chili heads.
beef and pork? What next, dogs and cats living together?
Why not?
Modern Islam is nothing more than another statist form of totalitarianism.
It fits in perfectly with the Eco-NAZIs and Eco-Marxists (all eco-commies).
But why wear green? Why don’t all these Communists just wear red and stop hiding who they really are?
Eat yer spinach and broccoli and peas ...
I wouldn’t put it past Obama to floodlight the WH into a green glow at night.
Now I have three reasons to dislike green!
I am reading a book called, The Witness, by Whittaker Chambers, the man who testified against Alger Hiss.
Chambers explains the Communist obsession with environmentalism and re-ordering the world as the vision of man’s mind displacing God as the creative intelligence of the world, man’s mind as rational intelligence redirecting man’s destiny and reordering the world. It is a vision of man as the central figure of creation, not because God made man in his image, but because man’s mind makes him the most intelligent of all animals. Communism challenges man to re-oder the chaos of nature and thus prove that there is no God and that man is supreme.
It’s in my pile of books to read.
If you like that, you’ll also like Codevilla’s “The Ruling Class” and “The Naked Communist” by Skousen.
