My sister has been suggesting I make Spiedies for years, and I’ve been promising to make them just as long! And I’ve been missing out big time. Oh, all those wasted years without my Sisters Spiedies! And as far as Spiedies? My Sister’s husband was actually born in Binghamton, New York, ground zero for great Spiedies, so she knows what she’s talkin’ about!

Does it seem you wait and wait and wait for Summer and all of a sudden it’s just too dang hot? And as we’ve all heard, “It’s not the heat it’s the humidity.” What exactly IS that supposed to mean, anyway? Don’t ever say that to me. I’ll be cranky when it’s too hot and give you a “look.” You know the kind of look I mean…the one that says “What in the H E double hockey sticks are you talking about?!” That’s when it’s too hot to cook, too hot to bbq, and you need Slow Cooker Baby Back Ribs in your life. Or Spare Ribs. It doesn’t matter, they’re both so good with this method.

Not too long ago, I was eating at a restaurant and ordered a Bourbon Glazed Pork Chop. It was quite a workout, to say the least. Tough and dry. I kind of think I might have looked/sounded a bit like this kitty, below. But I wasn’t saying Yum Yum – and I don’t know that this kitty is, either! You won’t have that issue with these Sweet Bourbon Maple Chops.
I’m not sure what, exactly, inspired me to go with a Sweet Bourbon Maple Barbecue Sauce, but I’m glad I did! See, I’m not whoo-hoo wild crazy about bourbon, but I decided to double down on it when I made these Sweet Bourbon Barbecue Chops. I’m so glad I did!

Sometimes the universe aligns, and this Brunswick Stew Georgia Style came about as a result! We just made a big pork shoulder roast (Momofuku’s Bo Ssam, to be exact) and had leftovers. I had just come across a couple of recipes for Brunswick Stew. And my sister from Georgia called and said she was on her way. Well, that sealed the deal! Brunswick Stew, it was!
