Recipes:

CHOPPED PORK WITH BARBECUE SAUCE
3 lbs. roast pork, chopped (left over from 4/26)
Barbecue sauce (below)
1 Tbs. white vinegar
2 Tbs. water
1 Tbs. peanut oil
a twist of freshly-ground black pepper

Put the chopped pork in a saucepan with just enough sauce to moisten it. Add white vinegar, water, oil, and pepper, put the lid on, and heat through, stirring occasionally to keep it from burning or sticking. Serve with extra sauce for dipping, if desired.

BARBECUE SAUCE
1 1/2 Tbs. unsalted butter
4 Tbs. cider vinegar
2 Tbs. water
3/4 c. ketchup
1 Tbs. Worcestershire sauce
1/4 tsp. Tabasco sauce
1 clove garlic, minced
2 Tbs. peanut oil
1/8 tsp. salt
1/8 tsp. freshly-ground black pepper
1/8 tsp. red pepper flakes
1/2 bay leaf
1 Tbs. brown sugar
1/2 tsp. paprika
1 lemon wedge

Combine all ingredients except lemon wedge in a saucepan. Squeeze in the juice from the wedge, then add the wedge. Heat thoroughly without boiling.

MIXED GREENS
8 c. raw chopped mixed greens (collards, turnip greens, kale, and any arugula that's gotten too old and tough to eat uncooked)
2 cloves garlic, peeled and smashed
1 Tbs. peanut oil
salt and freshly-ground pepper to taste
Texas Pete hot sauce to taste

Place greens and garlic in a stockpot with water to cover. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat slightly and simmer, covered, until greens are very soft and tender. Drain water off.
Add oil, salt, and pepper to the pan and cook at a low sizzle for several minutes. As the greens cook, stir the mixture and smash the garlic in with a wooden spoon.
Serve with hot sauce.

WHITE BEANS
1 Tbs. olive oil
1/2 medium onion, chopped fine
1 can of Great Northern beans (the kind with a little bit of salt pork in it)
freshly-ground black pepper to taste
thin slices of raw onion (optional)

Saute the onion in the olive oil until completely soft and translucent. Add the beans and the pepper and simmer for 15 to 30 minutes, stirring occasionally. Serve with raw onion, if desired.
