Cookbook Recipe #40
I have been trying to pick up cookbooks when I am in a different state or region. I like seeing all the differences from state to state in food. I picked up this cookbook on a trip to Hawaii with my family. It was the first cookbook I picked up on a trip. I have since picked up others and I really enjoy going through them. From this book I choose this pork recipe because well I am a huge fan of anything to do with corn. I thought cornmeal crusted pork sounded really good and with sweet corn bbq sauce....doubly good! I prefer pork and chicken with some type of sauce or marinade. And as I have said previously pork loin is not my favorite cut of pork. I thought with this sauce though, I would really like it. And I did, this is one of my favorite pork recipes that I have made. I really liked the sauce a lot. The original recipe called to puree the sauce, but I liked the idea of having actual pieces of corn in the sauce. I think I may even try making this but with chicken next time.

I have 291 cookbooks and a majority of them I haven’t cooked from. I subscribe to about 20 daily emails of recipes and cooking blogs, which is where I get most of the recipes I make. What is the use of having 291 cookbooks if I am not going to use them? So this is my challenge, to cook at least one recipe a week from a different cookbook until I have used all of my cookbooks. On this blog I will share the one new recipe I make from my cookbooks as well as other recipes I make on a daily basis.

The hubby would love this! I'd have to make it with chicken, but the substitution looks like it would be an easy one.
