The strangest thing I ate this week: what? huh?
September 10, 2006
Crispy ear from a pig that so selflessly gave its life so that a bunch of friends could eat. OK, so it's not that strange. And it really wasn't this week. A few weeks ago, though.
We cooked this pig in a homemade La Caja China (Chinese Box), Cuban style. This method of cooking involves putting food in an aluminum-lined wood box, and putting coals on the lid of the box.
This is pretty much the most fun you can have with a box and a bag of charcoal.
