Pork

Enjoy a variety of delicious pork recipes, from traditional ham roasts to savory meatballs. Whether you’re preparing quick weeknight dinners or impressive meals for special occasions, you’ll find detailed instructions and tips to create mouthwatering dishes. Learn how to season and cook pork perfectly, enhance its natural flavors, and explore creative ways to incorporate it into your favorite cuisines.

Pork is an affordable alternative to other types of meat and a phenomenol addition to mix in with ground beef recipes to save money and add flavor.

I always recommend pastured, heritage pork whenever possible. And buying primal cuts or whole hogs can really save you lots of money.

Check out my oven-baked ham with potatoes and carrots recipe for a traditional dinner that looks impressive but is very easy to put together. My German sauerkraut soup and German meatloaf (hackbraten), both incorporate ground pork with ground beef (although you can do all pork) for so much flavor.

An authentic peasant dish from my homeland is the must-try grah, a white bean stew made with smoked pork and beans. Make sure you also try my leftover ham bone and bean stew.
