Well I can tell you that greens need to be cooked a long time with some pork and cornbread is best made with buttermilk.

I'm sorry, what recipe were we looking for? I saw mint julep and went directly there. Made a nice big batch. Call me when dinner's ready ...

I have a friend named Aaron that brings his homemade greens to all of our carry-in things. He says his greens are so good "they'll make you wanna slap your Grandma." Now that must be some greens! I have to be a little careful gorging on these because Mother Nature makes me pay for it the next day. A little natural Exlax. What the heck does your tagline mean?

We could get together and use my pork roast! I was just trying to decide what to do with it now that it is fork tender. Pulled pork? Cuban sandwiches? Hmm...

Make sure you check out my article today...it is food related.

Vicky, it's funny you would say that. My sister Robin just used that line the other day. She said she got it from her step son. (Long story about that sig. It has to do with the latest Gather griping).

On my way, Sue!

Thanks, all :)

Mmmmmm.. food. I make my cornbread with whole kernel corn and jalapenos. My husband likes it with a bit of heat. On occasion, I'll sprinkle smoked paprika to give it a different flavor.

Thanks Shannon. I switched a few years ago from fatback to turkey bacon when seasoning my greens. it's actually tastier and so much healthier!

Greens normally need a long time to cook but I just saw a recipe on TV Food Network where Gina Neely only cooked her greens for 1/2 hour. She made Creamed Collards! Looked good to me.

Risa, I saw Tyler Florence saute then cook them for only about 45 minutes. I can't imagine eating them after only cooking for 45 minutes, especially not a 1/2 hour.
