  1. Boston Butt

    2lbs. pork butt roast shaved into 3/16 inch slices (Northwoods will do this if you ask)
    3/4 cup water
    3/4 cup ketchup
    dash tobasco
    1 tsp. paprika
    2 Tbsp. vinegar
    2 Tbsp. worcestershire
    1 Tbsp. salt
    1/2 tsp. pepper
    1 tsp. chili powder

    Mix all ingredients together, except the pork, in a large air tight container. Drop the slices in one at a time to ensure they are coated with marinade. Let sit for 24 - 48 hours before grilling.

    For freezing: What I will do is mix it, then freeze it. The serving day instructions should be : Thaw 48 HOURS before grilling. Grill over HOT flames or heat until dark brown or crisp.

    Serving Day:

    Place individual slices on grill. With tongs, consistently flip, turn and move the slices until they reach golden brown, bacon like appearance. Some ends may char, this is typical and adds to the flavor, also unavoidable. When individual pieces are done, remove and place in crock to keep warm or place in a pan in oven on warm until all the pieces are off the grill. Serve with salad, vegetable or potato.

  3. *Sweet and Sour Barbecued Chicken*

    RECIPE INGREDIENTS:
    2 garlic cloves, crushed through a garlic press
    2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
    ½ Tablespoon lime juice
    ½ Tablespoon lemon juice
    1/3 cup light brown sugar
    2 Tbsp Dijon mustard
    1/3 cup honey
    1 teaspoon salt
    ½ teaspoon black pepper
    ¼ cup olive oil
    3 pounds boneless, skinless chicken breasts

    1. In a shallow bowl, whisk together the garlic, vinegar, lime and lemon juices, brown sugar, mustard, honey, and salt and pepper. Whisk in the olive oil (a fun job for kids).

    2. Place approximately one-third of the sauce in a freezer bag with the chicken. Place the other two-thirds in a separate smaller freezer bag for basting and for using as a dipping sauce. Combine the bags together in a freezer bag. Label and freeze flat with serving instructions:


    *Sweet and Sour Barbecued Chicken*

    Serving Day Instructions: (Grill, broil or bake)

    Divide the "sauce bag" into 2 equal portions. These are for basting and dipping. Grill the chicken for about 4 minutes per side or until the juices run clear. During the last minutes of cooking, baste the chicken with one portion of the reserved sauce to glaze it. Serve with dipping sauce.
