1 pork butt (shoulder)

1 gal cider vinegar

10 ozs Worcestershire sauce

6 ozs chili sauce

1 1/4 ozs crushed red pepper flakes

Mix all sauce ingredients together. Use as a basting sauce for the meat. The pork has to be barbecued - that is, cooked long and slow over a real wood fire, preferably hickory. Temp should be around 220 degrees, and it takes at least 1-1/2 hours per pound, or until internal temp. reaches 150-160 degrees.

China Moon Cafe Wonton Burgers Recipe

1/4 cup plus 2 tsp. green onions -- sliced

1/4 cup cilantro or Chinese chives -- chopped

1 1/2 tablespoons fresh gingerroot -- finely minced

2 1/2 tablespoons garlic -- finely minced

1/4 cup plus 1 T. soy sauce

1 1/2 tablespoons Chinese rice wine OR dry sherry

1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

1 teaspoon black pepper

1 1/2 tablespoons hot chili oil

1/4 cup chicken stock

3 pounds pork butt -- coarsely ground

(1 part fat to 3 to 4 parts lean) 2 French baguettes -- each cut crosswise

-- into 4 equal -- portions peanut oil Dijon mustard

In a large bowl, combine the green onion, cilantro, ginger, garlic, soy sauce, rice wine or sherry, salt, pepper, chile oil, and stock and mix well. Add the pork and stir in one direction with your hands or a large spoon just until the mixture can be thoroughly blended. Do not overcook the meat. (At this point the mixture can be sealed airtight and refrigerated overnight. The flavors will actually enlarge. Bring to room temperture before cooking.)

Handling the meat mixture as little as possible to avoid compacting it, divide it into 8 equal portions nd form the portions into rectang;es to fir the bread. Brush a heavy skillet with a film of oil. Remember that the pork will render some of its own fat, so you'll need only minimal oil for cooking. Place the pan over high heat and heat it as hot as possible. Add the patties and sear, turning once, until well browned on both sides. Reduce the heat and cook until done to your preference.

Cut the French bread lengthwise and spread the cut surfaces of the baguette portions with mustard and enclose the patties inside.

Serves 8.

NOTE: "Burgers made from leftover spicy pork wonton filling is a favorite staff lunch at China Moon Cafe in San Francisco. The meat mixture is moist and zestily seasoned, so a mild Dijon mustard is a terrific accompaniment.... Wonton, by the way, translates as "cosmic chaos". The word dates back to Chinese antiquity when the universe was described as a jumble of light and dark enclosed in a thin shell, hence the edible invention of the wonton."

3 tb Fish sauce

3 tb Chinese light soy sauce

2 tb Fresh lime juice

1 tb Freshly ground black pepper

1 tb Minced garlic (3 cloves)

2 lb Chicken legs or breasts,

-skin and fat removed

A street and market food served everywhere in Thailand, this chicken is traditionally associated with the Northeast. At the train stations or bus stop, you can get a few skewers and a little bag of sticky rice for a delicious snack or light lunch. The marinade dates back to a time before the introduction of chilies by the Portuguese. Black peppercorns were used in enormous quantities, and they still have an important role in Thai cooking. Combine cilantro root, fish sauce, soy sauce, lime juice, pepper and garlic in a blender or food processor. Blend until smooth and pour into a shallow, non aluminum dish. Add chicken and turn to coat evenly with marinade. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 1 hour or up to 8 hours, turning occasionally. Preheat the broiler or prepare a charcoal or gas grill. Drain the chicken and reserve the marinade for basting. Broil or grill the chicken on a lightly oiled rack approximately 3 inches from the heat for 10 minutes. Turn the chicken and baste with the reserved marinade. Discard any leftover marinade. Cook for 10 to 15 minutes longer, or until the outside is browned and the inside is no longer pink.

Bubba Tom's Eastern North Carolina Style Barbeque Recipe

1 5-8 pound Boston Butt Pork Roast -- smoked

1 mason jar Apple Cider Vinegar

4 tablespoons Cayenne Pepper Flakes

8 bulbs garlic

-----PAN SAUCE-----

12 ounces Apple Cider Vinegar

2 tablespoons Cayenne Pepper Flakes

---------

1 tablespoon salt

2 cups water

While nothing can duplicate the sweet ambrosia of slow, pit-cooked, whole hog Eastern North Carolina barbeque, this is a right close backyard approximation for those of us who find themselves exiled in distant, heathen regions of barbeque heresy.

First, get yourself some pork shoulders or Boston Butt roasts, as many as your smoker will hold comfortably. Use a Brinkmann Professional Pit Smoker with an offset firebox, but you can do this with a vertical Brinkmann water smoker as well. The key is providing a moist, smoky, indirect heat for a long period of time.

Put a bag of charcoal in the firebox, open the vents, light it, and let it burn down to coals. Then add wood (generally oak, since hickory is scarce up here)--two parts wet (soaked) wood to one part dry--regulate the dampers, and put the shoulders or butts, fat side up, in the cooking chamber. Beneath the meat put a drip pan half-filled with apple cider vinegar. You must keep the heat between 180-260 degrees throughout the smoking process; the optimum range is 220-240 degrees. Normally, you add apple wood to the firebox as well and always add between 5-7 whole heads of garlic during the process. Keep the firebox fed and a good smoke going for between 8 to 10 hours. Do not open the cooking chamber to baste the meat--the only time you open the cooking chamber is when the temperature spikes above 260 degrees, and you open it only long enough to bring the temperature back in the proper range. By the time the smoking period is finished, the outside of the pork will have a golden amber to dark brown crust.

Now, take the meat and put it in a covered Dutch oven. If it's too dark outside to continue, preheat your indoor stoves' oven to just under 300 degrees; otherwise, just raise the temperature in the cooking chamber a like amount. Get a quart-sized Mason jar; fill it halfway with apple cider vinegar, add one (or more) teaspoons of red pepper flakes, and fill the rest of the jar with water. Dump this into the Dutch oven with the pork, cover, and cook until the meat falls from the bone, about 2 more hours or so.

When the meat is done, let it cool a bit. [NOTE: If you're too tired, you can stop here for the day--cover 'em up, put them in the fridge, and warm 'em up the next morning and continue the procedure]. While it's cooling, fill some 16 ounce bottles with apple cider vinegar, adding about a teaspoon of red pepper flakes to each one. When the pork has cooled enough to handle pull it into thumb-sized chunks, discarding as much fat as possible. Pack roughly 3 pounds of barbeque into a large frying pan (Use a Number 10 size cast iron skillet). Dissolve 1 tablespoon of salt into 2 1/2 cups of warm water and pour it into the pan. Add about 12 ounces of your apple cider vinegar and red pepper sauce, turn the heat to medium, and let the liquid slowly simmer off, stirring frequently, until the sauce just barely oozes over the top of your spatula when you press down on the barbeque with it. Remove from heat

Buffalo Burgers Recipe

1 lb Ground buffalo

1/4 ts Pepper

1 ts Worcestershire sauce

4 ts Ketchup

1 ts Mustard

2 ts Horseradish

The beauty of this recipe is that accurate measurements can go out the window. Add more or less of the spicing that you like. Toss it all in and mix it up. Patty up and grill. Serve like a regular hamburger. Tip: If you have a grill that tells the temperature, keep it down! Or let the coals die down some. Don't put lean buffalo meat in the flame. ( Buffalo is a lean red meat and is some what dry so you have to cook it slowly to keep the juices in.)

Butterflied Leg Of Lamb With Roasted Vegetable Recipe

1/2 c Oil. olive

3 Lemons; juiced

4 Garlic cloves; minced

3 tb Marjoram; chopped

2 tb Rosemary; chopped

6 lb Lamb, leg of; boned and

-butterflied Salt; to taste Pepper, black; to taste 5 lg Potatoes, baking; cut into

-6 lengthwise wedges each 4 md Zucchini; halved lengthwise

4 Pepper, bell, red; seeded,

-halved lengthwise Lemon; wedges for serving Combine 1/3 cup of the olive oil, the lemon juice, garlic, 2 tablespoons of the marjoram and the rosemary, and marinate the lamb in this mixture for 24 hours. Bring the lamb to room temperature.

Heat broiler and broiler pan. Remove the lamb from its marinade, scraping off as much of the herbs and garlic as possible. Season with salt and pepper to taste. Place it flat on the boiler pan, the thickest part at the back of the pan, and broil for 15 minutes. Turn the lamb and broil for 13 to 15 minutes longer. Remove from the broiler and let stand 10 minutes.

Note: This is also an excellent cut for the grill; grill until a slight bit of pink remains in the center, either over _low_ direct heat, or smoke-roast over indirect heat. Let roast 'rest' for 10 minutes before carving, and then slice off 8, 1/2 inch thick slices for the current meal, and then wrap, chill and refrigerate the remainder of the meat for use later in the week (see recipes for Deviled Lamb, Lamb Hash, Couscous-lamb Salad, Roasted Pepper, Lamb and Watercress Focaccia Sandwiches, and Lamb Pita Sandwiches with Tahini Sauce). Combine the potatoes, the remaining 2 tb. olive oil (or slightly more if desired) and salt and pepper to taste in a large roasting pan. Place the potatoes in the oven at the same time as the lamb goes under the broiler. Roast, tossing once, for 25 minutes. Add the zucchini and peppers, tossing them with the potatoes, and roast until the potatoes are tneder when pierced with a knife and the zucchini and peppers are just tender, 12 to 15 minutes more. Season with additional salt if necessary, pepper and the remaining 1 tb. marjoram. Reserve 10 potato wedges for hash later in the week. Mound the remining vegetables on a platter and serve with the sliced lamb and lemon wedges. Note: This recipe is for an oven with a single heating element that allows for simultaneous broiling and roasting. In an oven with seperate heating elements for oven and broiler, roast the vegetables first at 45 F., then broil the lamb. Reheat the vegetables in the 10 minutes that the lamb stands before carving.

8 1/4 lb. hamburger patties

4 hamburger buns

8 ounces diced green chiles -- mild

8 tablespoons chipotle puree

4 tablespoons mayonnaise

1/2 medium onion -- diced small

4 slices pepperjack cheese

***GARNISHES***
1/2 medium onion -- sliced

hot mustard catsup chipotle peppers -- diced tomatoes -- sliced

Thaw the hamburger patties. While they are thawing you can mix the mayonnaise with 4 tablespoons of the chipotle puree, put in a covered container & place in fridge until patty melts are cooked.

Heat a heavy cast iron skillet. Toss in the diced onions & stir fry until the onions are translucent & start to brown slightly. Add the green chiles & 4 tablespoons of chipotle puree. Stir to mix well. Remove from heat & let cool while the burgers finish thawing.

When the burger patties are thawed completely, take 1 burger patty & spread out a generous amount of the onion & chile mixture to within 1/2 inch of the edges. Take a second burger patty & lay on top of the first, carefully use your fingers to seal the edges of the patties together. Repeat with the remaining burger patties & chile mixture.
