About this item

Highly respected Atlanta chef and season six Top Chef Fan Favorite Kevin Gillespie shares his unbounded passion for pork in 100 unique recipes with global flavors. Everything you need to know about selecting, cooking, and enjoying pork is included within, along with over 100 full-color photographs. Like Bubba Gump and his shrimp, I have a million ways to cook pork because I love it so much. If I had only one animal to eat forevermore, I would eat pigs. You could have a pork chop one day, pulled pork another, and cured bacon the next day, and theyd all taste completely different. You cant do that with chicken. Chicken tastes like chicken no matter what part of the animal you eat. And I love beef and lamb, but they dont have the amazing versatility of pork.
