Servings: persons

2-3 tbsp very good canola oil (I prefer La Tourangelle)
1 lb pork shoulder, pulled
1/2 cup crystallised ginger
1 Red Delicious apple, peeled, cored and thinly sliced
1 cup dried cherries
2-3 tbsp good clover honey
Juice of 1/2 orange
1-2 tsp good Kentucky Bourbon
Sea salt
Black pepper
1-1/2 cups very good barbeque sauce (I prefer Blue Front Bar-B-Q Hot)

1
In a heavy, non-stick skillet, heat the oil over medium heat until it is very hot, but does not smoke.
2
Saute the pork shoulder until beautifully golden-brown.
3
Remove from heat, and drain on paper towelling.
4
In the same skillet, saute the crystallised ginger, apple slices and dried cherries.
5
Stir in the honey, orange juice and Bourbon; blend thoroughly.
6
Taste for seasoning, and add sea salt and/or black pepper to taste.
7
Return the sauteed pork to the skillet; blend thoroughly.
8
Stir in the barbeque sauce; blend thoroughly.
9
Reduce heat to low, and continue to cook.
10
Wash & dry the salad greens, and arrange in pretty glass bowls.
11
Top with the pork, and serve immediately.
12
Blue Front Bar-B-Q Sauce is nearly impossible to find outside Florida, but can be ordered online.
13
If you have friends in central Florida, they can send you some for Christmas (isn't that right, JP?)
14
This is very good with a nice Indian beer, such as Kingfisher or Hayward's.
15
If you're not a drinking man, pour yourself some sweet tea and thank the Lord for His blessings.
