#DallasPorkMafia #BigTomFoods

This is written and now shall it be done...haha.  Sorry to be so cheesy but this is exciting to be a part of.  The #NationalPorkMafia obviously exists in its immense greatness but now the #BiG city of Dallas is a beacon under the umbrella of the National Pork Mafia.  I really want to make T-Shirts supporting the #DallasPorkMafia.  Since May is National BBQ month I saw it fitting to latch on to the Mafiosos of the Pork persuasion.  Weather is starting to look up a bit and act like a real Spring but I cannot hold my breath or even count on the weather holding.  We shall see what the next few days have in store.  My #BigGreenEgg is ready to rock whenever the prep is done and the cool breeze coupled with remnants of the warm day is just what we need to relax and cook outside.  Pork is rich in flavor, low in comparative cost, forgiving to the novice and ever exciting to the seasoned cooks.  Certain cuts of pork can in fact be low in fat and high in protein.  Pieces like the tenderloin are trimmed lean and can be prepped and cooked in minutes.  Other not so lean cuts include the shoulders, ribs and of course the mighty belly (bacon).  http://www.drgourmet.com/health/fatcontent-pork.shtml  This website has an interesting calorie comparison which show the similarity between boneless, skinless chicken breasts (125 calories) vs. the Pork tenderloin (136).  Close enough that both may be enjoyed as an option for lean and tasty proteins.
