What’s cooking this Friday Eve?

Pork! That’s what. Thin cut bonein pork chops that brined for 30+ hours in a delicious concoction.

These will meet their fate on a hot grill where I plan to sear delicious caramelization into them.

We are also having grilled asparagus.

Don’t judge. They’re really good for an instant potato … and take only 5 minutes in the microwave. Trust me, I can do homemade. And when I have time I do. This is a great alternative to have on hand when you need something fast.
