I marinated two pounds of pork tips overnight. I drained them and cooked them in my trusty cast iron pan. Keep stirring the tips while cooking as the marinade caramelizes quickly. Removed the tips when done and deglazed the pan with chardonnay. After the wine cooked off, I added a little olive oil and sauteed the onions. My wife steamed some corn and made a salad. Great dinner and a relaxing day.


Yum! And the photography makes it a double yum!

Thanks, Gene, it’s nice to hear from you. I hope all is well with you and your family. Did you make it to the Clam Box on your vacation?

I wouldn’t use the same marinade again nor would I recommend it. It caramelized too quickly, left a burnt after taste and made a mess of my cast iron pan. Marinades are a matter of personal taste and are usually decided after a great deal of experimentation. The best marinade for this dish to suit my taste is still a work in progress. Good luck.


Thanks again.

Thank you for your comment, MT. I appreciate it. I’ve always enjoyed photography and cooking and like to take pictures of the dishes I prepare. When this new foodie section opened, I decided to submit some of my food photography. I’m enjoying it and have even started taking pictures of my dinner when we eat out with my iPhone to submit.

Looks good. I like just about any kind of pork but most of mine is cooked on a wood smoker or a charcoal grill. Picture looks good to.👍

Thanks, Paul. My mother was Italian so I learned to cook helping her in the kitchen. To this day, most of my cooking is on a stove or in an oven. I cook a few things on our gas grill but have never learned the fine art of low and slow and smoking meat.

Before I retired, I traveled back and forth from Boston to the south on business. On my first trip, the boys from Alabama took me to a small place in the country with smokers lined up out back. I found out over the next two hours what southern barbecue is all about. Four of us finished it all off by splitting a lemon meringue pie.
