About Me

My photo
I grew up in Annapolis, the capital of MD, on the Chesapeake Bay and the Severn River where we always had fresh fish and seafood. I love all things food: cooking, eating, trying new recipes and sharing what I make with family and friends. I must say that my most favorite (I have many favorites) food is fish and mostly catfish. So, I'm always seeking catfish recipes frolm all olver. I like my cooking, my daughter, Wendy's, cooking and my son, Dan's dishes, as well. I'm not a food snob; in other words, I also enjoy OPC, (Other People's Cooking) also. I've got loads of interests: cats and dogs, taking photos, Giant pandas, chandeliers and the arts. I am a former teacher, personal chef and recovering lawyer turned information marketer. I love (watching) football, basketball, extreme sports like mountain/rock climbing, snowboarding, skiing and surfing. My own extreme sports are swimming, walking and talking. Not necessarily at the same time.

Fast and Easy Pork Sandwich for a Quick Fall Lunch

When you go to a deli or  a lunch wagon here in my area for a hot sliced or pulled pork sandwich, you can expect to spend no less than $8 for a naked sandwich.  More often than not, however, they will cost $9.00 or more plus tax. Don't get me wrong, they are delicious and worth it.  Well, maybe.  Anyway, I guess it's whatever the market will bear.  And, in this market, it can bear a lot, apparently.



I was thinking: "Why go to a deli when you can make a perfectly delicious sandwich at home worthy of the best meals on wheels food truck fare?"  So, for lunch today I made my sandwich with some thinly sliced Korean BBQ marinated pork I bought from one of my favorite Korean food markets.  I cooked it slowly in a a tablespoon of oil with some sliced yellow and red onions, toasted a large sub roll and added a little non-fat ranch dressing for the extra juicy sloppy factor.  When I had almost finished half of the sandwich, I though to have some avocado with it.  Way yum!
