Today's Menu: Pork, Potato and Bean Stew w/ Corn Bread



I tried a new recipe for dinner tonight, Pork, Potato and Bean Stew w/ Corn Bread. A really hearty and simple recipe. Using Cannelini Beans, Spicy Chili Beans, New Potatoes, and Pulled Smoked Pork. It all comes together to make a tasty and different stew. The Smoked Pork along with the Beans and Potatoes make a natural and delicious mix. I used Montgomery Inn Smoked Pork Barbecue for the meat and a 1/2 Cup JB's Fat Boy Haugwaush Barbecue Sauce for that extra kick. I left the recipe at the end of the post.

I also made a small  Cast Iron Skillet of Corn Bread using Martha White White Corn Meal. First Corn Bread I've made in a while and it's just as good as it always was! What better side for a hearty stew than Corn Bread. For dessert later another new item. This one from Blue Bunny, Blue Bunny Naturally Frozen Yogurt Chocolate/Vanilla Swirl. It's 110 calories and 19 carbs. I'll leave a separate post on this and how it tasted tomorrow, it looks delicious!
