Every so often, though, we can’t turn down amazing recipes that contain meat, especially if the letters BBQ can in any way be associated with them. Ming Thompson, who grew up in a family that runs a barbecue restaurant in Virginia, was a natural to share her recipes for pulled pork, slaw and barbecue sauce with us. A pulled pork sandwich is a compulsory meal for me upon return to the US each year, Southerner that I am.

This year, I had the extreme pleasure of having one from Fox Bros BBQ in Atlanta with fellow foodie, Broderick. Of course it was complete with slaw, barbecue sauce and pickles. If you don’t eat meat, there is an apple-cabbage slaw recipe and a barbecue sauce recipe below, which are both vegetarian. CLICK HERE for the full recipe after the jump!

Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie - The Amateur Gourmet. October 29, 2010 | By Adam Roberts | 26 Comments So that dinner I made for my friend Alex’s birthday (the one with the soup) began a few days earlier when I e-mailed Alex a very important question: “Dear Alex,” I wrote, “what are your Top 5 favorite desserts of all time?”

Bourbon Chocolate Pecan Pie - The Amateur Gourmet

Alex wrote back: “Hmmm…top five favorite desserts…I’ll do this w/o thinking too much: pecan pie, warm cake with cream cheese frosting, strawberry rhubarb pie, chocolate lava cake, lemon cake.” Seeing as she did this stream-of-consciousness style, I had to trust that the first dessert she named was truly her favorite. Which is why I ended up making what turned out to be (in my opinion at least) the greatest pecan pie ever. I’m not tooting my own horn; I’m tooting the horn of my friends Matt & Renato, those guys from Baked, who have an awesome new cookbook out called “Baked Explorations.” This pie is super cinchy to make, assuming you know how to roll a pie crust. As for the birthday girl, she was a very happy camper.
