Cider Braised Pulled Pork

I have been searching all over for a really good Pulled Pork Recipe with great visuals! Love the meat rakes.

BBQ season is kicking in, and the smell and taste of good home cooked BBQ food gets seriously addictive. I love to give it a local twist, and pork shoulder braised in cider is truly a wonderful match, the only thing I could do was to smoke it with some chunks of apple wood pruned from the apple trees in my garden. The pork was a wonderful shoulder from Pitmans Farm.

My recipe is over on the Food Magazine blogs, some great blogs on their site, including this one for Cider Braised Pulled Pork.

Have a great BBQ season.

Fillet Steak Rigatoni

This is one of my current favourites.
I began making it after I tried it at one of my favourite restaurants a little BYO Italian called pinochios.
I’ve slightly altered the recipe the link takes you too.
Obviously I use Rigatoni instead of Papperdelle, but both work well.
I also replaced the red onion with charlottes and I add soft cream cheese (Philadelphia) to get the sauce creamy but not overpower the sauce it gives it a tang. I got this idea after trying another version at a restaurant called Puccini‘s. http://www.puccinirestaurant.co.uk/

You could add goats cheese instead I have tried this but don’t put too much in its quite overpowering.

Enjoy
