Did you read the Teflon links on PG1?......best reason for using cast iron....lol :cool:
No, I didn't, but I DESPISE Teflon. If you don't know how to take care of cast iron, then you can spend a bit of money, and get some good, heavy, anodized aluminum cookware - if you cook right, it's every bit as good as a non-stick surface as far as clean up goes, and it cooks WAY better than Teflon...
 
Okay... Back to the Grill again... :D

Asian Marinated Grilled Pork Roast

INGREDIENTS:

* 1 - 6 lb. Bone-in pork roast
* 1/2 Cup Orange Juice
* 2 Tbsp. Frozen concentrated orange juice
* 2 Tbsp. Honey
* 1 Tbsp. Soy sauce
* 1 Tbsp. Olive oil
* 1 Tbsp. Minced garlic
* 1 Tbsp. Fresh ginger
* 1 Tbsp. Chinese five spice blend
* 1 Tsp. Asian chili paste

METHOD:

Bone out the roast, reserve and freeze the back ribs for another time. Mix all other ingredients in a shallow baking dish. Score the meat, then add to the pan, and spoon to coat all surfaces. Cover and refrigerate for at least 4 hours, turning occasionally. Place on a medium hot grill, cook to about 155-160 degrees. (Yes, get a meat thermometer - it's a wonderful tool!!) Let rest ten minutes before carving and serving.

Good ole fashion lard is best to cure cast iron.....and never wash it.if anything burns or sticks in it....use a paint scraper to get it off before it cools.... ;)
 
I *should* have posted this when I posted the cilantro salmon recipe - they go together REALLY well...

Tomato, Basil & Crouton Salad

* 1/2 lb. Ungrated Romano cheese

Place the tomato wedges in a large salad bowl. Remove stems from the basil, roll the leaves tightly and cut into julienne strips, add to tomatoes. Add croutons, then add the dressing, toss and serve immediately with small wedges of Parmesan and Romano on the side.

Quater the loaf of bread lengthwise, then cut into one inch slices. Spread evenly on a large cookie sheet, and place in a warm (225 degree) oven.

Use 3 cups for the salad, and reserve the rest to serve with scrambled eggs the following morning.
