Fresh Strawberry Granita
Granita is a gorgeous Italian frozen iced dessert . You can make it any time of the year, but it's really best enjoyed during the summer months. Not only is it cold and delicious, but it forces you to pop your hot face into the freezer four or five times to stir. Mixing the granita with a fork several times as it freezes results in perfect icy crystals.
Slow-Smoked Pulled Pork (Boston Butt)
This simple yet effective Boston butt recipe gives the pulled pork a mildly spicy and tangy flavor. The combination of smoke and moisture from the drip pan works very well for cooking the meat evenly and leaves plenty of juices within the meat itself. I've tried several different methods with Boston butt and this one is my favorite, as well as a favorite among my friends. Give it a try and see if you like it, and please don't be shy and leave some feedback! I usually serve with barbeque sauce and baked beans (throwing the fat chunks from the pulled pork into the beans to add a little extra flavor). Check out my Sweet and Spicy Cornbread Muffins recipe for a great side. Enjoy!
