Malcolm,
The tacos look good!! Just wondering if the Asian spices are readily available in most grocery stores such as Publix, etc
Most of them should be – but you can sub out any ingredients to make the recipe your own.
First of all I want to thank you for being such a good educator on bbq and smoking. I have learned so much from watching you on you tube. My question is do you have any non pork recipes for your killer hogs vinegar sauce? I cannot eat pork but I bought some of your sauce and am dying to try it on beef or chicken.
It’s great on chicken!
You mention mixing in eggs to your wasabi guacamole but I don’t see them listed in the ingredients list. Please advise thanks and keep up the good work.
