Porchetta

I found this pork shoulder roast stuffed with prosciutto at the grocery store the other day. It came in its own foil baking pan with its own meat thermometer inserted. All I had to do was bake it according to the instructions and remove it when the thermometer popped up! It was delicious, maybe a bit salty. I can bake my own meat but it was nice to try something different for a change.  Yes and it was perfectly roasted.

And it certainly reduces some of the work by being ready for the oven!

Sometimes you need a quick, pop in the oven thing! Deserve it, too!

Fun to try new things.

Yesterday I got to talk to the butcher and go back into their shoppe and ask about meats and come spring, I'm ordering raw ham. No salt cure. Noppers. Gonna smoke that baby, myself for the first time.

Muhahahaha.

I haven't ever cooked meat since I've been a vegetarian since I was a kid, but I've noticed that people sometimes have difficulty getting it cooked properly. I'm glad to hear yours cooked well.

The butchers were so nice and helpful. I never had raw ham before, but I sure as heck am excited to learn.

Loved the paper dolls on your other post. I do remember, I do.
