I can say that pork barbequed is the best way to eat it. I may not be a fan of eating animals, but the smell of it being barbequed makes me want to relish the smell and taste.
What a wonderful way you have put it, the recipe and instructions on how to cook this type of meat. I need to learn to cook, since hubby loves meat but I am a vegetarian by nature.

My sister-in-law is a vegetarian, my brother and nephew are not. Their solution is to make a meal they can all enjoy but with different proteins. Perhaps your husband wouldn’t be against trying some vegetarian meals as well! I have a wide variety of recipes that can help. Please let me know which ones are your favorite!
