Pork Chops with Cherry Sauce

Pork Chops with Cherry Sauce

Pork Chops with Cherry Sauce have to be the perfect summer entree. The chops are tender and juicy (thanks to a brine), and the sauce is the perfect combination of tart cherries and sweet heat. Yeah, there’s a touch of jalapeno. If that’s not your thing, feel free to leave it out.

Instant Pot Birria

Instant Pot Birria

Birria Tacos (Quesabirra) were trending when I posted a recipe a while back, and still are, for good reason. They’re everything you love about Mexican food, plus more! Tender beef, luscious and juicy, lots of gooey cheese and crispy goodness, and best of all, dippable. The broth, consomme, that results from cooking takes everything over the top!  And now you can make them faster at home with my Instant Pot Birria Recipe.
