Deep-Fried Pig's Tail
I want to make the case that pigs' tails contain everything desirable in the pig, and in exactly the right proportions. Unlike oxtail, the tails of pigs come with the skin intact so that each segment is a perfect cross-section of skin, fat, tendon, and meat.

Crubeens and Cabbage
Crubeens are a traditional Irish dish of boiled pigs feet that are often served fried and eaten by hand. Removing the bones and stuffing it with mashed potatoes elevates this Irish classic Sunday Supper status while keeping it in comfort food territory.
The Nasty Bits: No Mean Feet
I'm fond of all poultry feet. Goose and duck feet have ample amounts of webbing; when stewed, they are delicate and tender with a hint of chewiness that resembles the texture of simmered sheets of bean curd. While goose and duck feet are more prized in Chinese cuisine, I prefer the meatiness of a chicken's foot.
Balinese Pork Satay (Sate Babi) With Sweet Soy Glaze and Peanut Sauce
This recipe is inspired by the delicious pork satay I had at a night market on the north shore of Bali: little chunks of marinated meat threaded onto bamboo skewers, grilled over coals until charred, then served with a sweet-and-spicy peanut-based dipping sauce.

Grilled Pork Belly Kebabs With Sweet-and-Spicy Gochujang Marinade
Sriracha may be the king of Asian chili sauces, but when I cook, I'm much more likely to reach for a fuller-flavored condiment, like Korean gochujang. Here, I use it in a sweet-savory marinade for grilled pork belly kebabs.
To make pigs' feet a finger-licking treat, start by braising them in sweet Indonesian soy sauce, then finish on the grill. The result: rich, tender pork with crispy skin.

Savory Grits With Slow-Cooked Collard Greens From 'Afro-Vegan'
Give me a bowl of creamy grits and I'm a happy woman. Give me that same bowl of grits topped with slow-cooked greens and I'll swoon. So I didn't hesitate to try out Bryant Terry's recipe for savory grits with long-cooked collards in his new cookbook, Afro-Vegan.
Red Rooster's Mac and Greens
Marcus Samuelsson's penchant for Southern American-African-Swedish fusion cuisine always makes him an interesting chef to watch. His recipe for Mac and Greens, adapted in Ellen Brown's Mac & Cheese, fits right into his oeuvre. The recipe title is apt, as his mac contains just as much greenery as pasta. Braised collards and bok choy pair perfectly with the gooey cheddar-Gruyère-Parmesan mix, and the hints of soy and coconut lend glutamate-rich depth. But don't be fooled, this is no health food--t...

This week, we’re finally taking a look at that most essential of Southern staples, grits with eggs and bacon from My Cousin Vinny. But that’s not all: sweet grits and shrimp & grits are both quite literally on the table! Just make sure they’re not instant if you’re using them as part of your
Korean-style collard greens side dish
Collard greens are not a familiar vegetable in Korean cuisine. However, since the vegetable is nutritious, healthy, and delicious, I wanted to use it in my cooking. First I tried to make kimchi with it, but it turned out too tough. Then I tried cooked collard greens at a BBQ restaurant in New...

Ham Hocks and Crowder Peas From 'Down South'
Smoked ham hocks are a magical, transformative ingredient. The collagen-rich bony cuts of pork leg boast intense levels of umami and the ability to turn mere water into a silky broth in a matter of hours (a.k.a. pot liquor). Throw in freshly shelled crowder peas (a small Southern shell bean) to that cooking water, as Donald Link does in his new cookbook, Down South, and you'll wind up with a homey yet flavor-packed dish.
Hoppin' John
This version of Hoppin' John, a Southern and New Year's Day staple, features tender and earthy field peas cooked with fluffy rice and rich and smoky ham hocks.
Cornbread-Coated Pulled Pork Mac and Cheese Wedges
When I have leftover mac and cheese and pulled pork after a day of barbecuing, I don't just reheat it and eat it the next day. I fold them together into these outrageous fried mac and cheese bombs, stuffed with barbecue-sauced pulled pork and coated in a cornbread crust.
Creole Succotash from 'Treme'
The succotash I grew up eating was a simple side dish of lima beans, corn, onion, black pepper, and a big hunk of butter. But despite my familiarity with the basic version, I am open to different interpretations of the dish (as long as it still contains butter, corn, and limas, of course). This creole succotash from the Treme cookbook is kind of like a tricked out version of the classic. In addition to the requisite vegetables, you'll find okra, celery, bell pepper, shrimp, and two kinds of pork...
