Joe's Stone Crab in Miami is also kind of unique. We went there twice in our last visit. Love stone crabs.. My question, though, was whether there were dishes or cuisines unique to SW Florida or cuisines for which SW Florida is famous. Who cares? KC BBQ is good, but Texas BBQ is better. SC BBQ, which is pulled pork, is very good in this region which is mustard-based sauce. NC BBQ is vinegar and pepper based, which is also very good. The MD BBQ you are talking about is nearly certainly molasses based sauce, which is crap. I don't want a bunch of sugar on my smoky, slow cooked meats. Yuck. Just because you don't know how to deal with a 200lb pig on a pit for 18 hours and you ate at some BBQ place a couple of times 40 years ago you think you know something about BBQ. Too funny. Oh, and BTW, BBQ originated in SC. Not KC. "The first true colony in the Americas, by the way, was in South Carolina. The very first Spanish adventurers that one reads about in the history books were actually Conquistadores, bent on gold and conquest, not on colonizing. The Spanish colonists, who came only slightly later but still in the 1500s, came to South Carolina and they named their colony Santa Elena. It was established in the area that we now call Port Royal in Beaufort County. That colony lasted almost 20 years and it boasted a fort with several cannons, a church, a bakery, blacksmith foundry and shop, a pottery kiln and nearly 500 colonists including over 100 families. It was in that first American colony that the white man first learned to prepare and to eat real barbeque thanks to their interactions with the local Native Americans. So, people were eating barbeque in South Carolina long before the name Carolina had been applied to the area by the English." |

It is probably going to be seafood, particularly shrimp, since Ft Myers Beach is one of the biggest shrimp docks in the world. You can buy shrimp here that was swimming less than 12 hours ago. |

There's an Italian restaurant in Ft Myers called Cibo that rivals anything in NY. There's a small Italian place called "Giuseppe's Italian Restaurant" on Indiantown Rd. in Jupiter that we visited often. Family run, authentic Italian cuisine and very reasonably priced. Best experience we had at an Italian restaurant was in ... well, Italy. I had a leave from the Navy and we packed up the little Fiat 850 Spyder and took a road trip. We stopped for dinner at an inviting restaurant that had a high stone wall with a permanently opened iron gate, both covered with overgrown vines. Mrs.E. and I went in but discovered they were not open yet and the Italian family than ran it (probably four generations) were seated at a big table having their dinner. They gave us a table anyway, explained they would serve us as soon as they finished and gave us some wine and bread in the meantime. I watched the head of household .... older Italian guy ... as he ate. In Italian style, he had a big jug of wine that he'd lift onto his shoulder, holding it in place with his finger in the jug's handle ring and take a big swallow of the wine. Cracked me up because that's exactly how Mrs.E's father used to drink wine when he was alive. The pizza joints in Italy were very different than here in the states. They were prepared with a minimal amount of cheese and lots of veggies, etc. Then the pizza was doused with oil and put in a brick oven with a wood fire. It was only cooked for about a minute, removed, folded in half and held up for a few seconds to let the excess oil drip out. Good stuff. |

You should have sent someone out for pulled pork sandwiches. We have a pretty good local restaurant that does a great job with ribs and pulled pork, and sells a first class overstuff pulled pork sandwich for $8 with fries and coleslaw. There's enough pork in the order for two sandwiches. 18 hours? That's really, too too too funny. Idle hands and idle minds. For $8, I can make a half dozen really good pulled pork sandwiches. Would much rather eat it on the plate. Fewer calories and carbs, but they obviously don't bother you. And, obviously, you've never been lucky enought to experience a pit cooked pig.

I made a heavy duty steel frame and used one of the electric motors and gear heads that were used to tune the inductor coils in the big, 100,000 watt HF transmitters.* Worked great and rotated the pig at just the right speed. I forget exactly how many hours it took to cook it but I think it was around 24 hours. Harry would have just microwaved in over one of those transmitters ;-) Naw, I simply would have gotten a local Puerto Rican restaurant to prepare the meal. And fed 50 people and their families? Oh, I see.* I got mine.* Screw you. There are some terrific Puerto Rican recipes for pork. I was introduced to them by the sister of a high school friend. She married a Puerto Rican and moved to the island. Tried a number of pork dishes at several of the local restaurants in their town and in her kitchen. https://thenoshery.com/roasted-perni...an-roast-pork/ When we lived in Puerto Rico (off base) our next door neighbors were super nice to Mrs.E. and I, often inviting us over for home cooked traditional Puerto Rican dishes. They were older, retired and she was a fantastic cook. Got to try things that I'll probably never see or hear of again. It was fun and they were awesome people. Miguel Mendez's mom would fix Puerto Rican rice and beans daily. They lived across the street from us in Isabella. Of course I'd eat lunch over there just about every day. Miguel was my best friend. I've tried, very unsuccessfully, to make rice and beans taste like hers. Never succeeded. The secret is in the sofrito, and the stuff sold in stores doesn't come close. |

Several were owned and/or operated by people who previously had high end and well known restaurants in New York City and other areas of the country. When they retired to Florida they opened smaller versions of their "up north" places and some were very, very good. I ran into that, by accident, in Clearwater Beach. There is an Italian restaurant right there where you come off the bridge on the south end in a strip mall. They are transplanted New Yorkers and they brought their recipe book ;-) === You don't have to go as far as Clearwater. There's an Italian restaurant in Ft Myers called Cibo that rivals anything in NY. There's a small Italian place called "Giuseppe's Italian Restaurant" on Indiantown Rd. in Jupiter that we visited often. Family run, authentic Italian cuisine and very reasonably priced. Best experience we had at an Italian restaurant was in ... well, Italy. I had a leave from the Navy and we packed up the little Fiat 850 Spyder and took a road trip. We stopped for dinner at an inviting restaurant that had a high stone wall with a permanently opened iron gate, both covered with overgrown vines. Mrs.E. and I went in but discovered they were not open yet and the Italian family than ran it (probably four generations) were seated at a big table having their dinner. They gave us a table anyway, explained they would serve us as soon as they finished and gave us some wine and bread in the meantime. I watched the head of household .... older Italian guy ... as he ate. In Italian style, he had a big jug of wine that he'd lift onto his shoulder, holding it in place with his finger in the jug's handle ring and take a big swallow of the wine. Cracked me up because that's exactly how Mrs.E's father used to drink wine when he was alive. The pizza joints in Italy were very different than here in the states. They were prepared with a minimal amount of cheese and lots of veggies, etc. Then the pizza was doused with oil and put in a brick oven with a wood fire. It was only cooked for about a minute, removed, folded in half and held up for a few seconds to let the excess oil drip out. Good stuff. Good to hear you got a good restaurant in Italy. My wife and I rode motorcycles from Stuttgart to Como, through some real **** weather on the Spleugen Pass. Got to Como, dried off, hid the bikes in a barn provided by the hotel, and went in search of one of those quaint little family owned Italian restaurants. Found one that looked pretty good a few blocks off the main drag. Ordered dinner, lasagna for her, pizza for me. The lasagna came out as a square chunk about 4" on a side in a small bow. The pizza came out as almost barren piece of think pita bread about 9" across. She cut into her lasagna only to find it still frozen in the center. We weren't happy campers. The rest of the meals in Italy we fixed ourselves at the campgrounds. |

But why would I want to waste most of a day cooking 200 pounds of something the guys down at "Adam's Ribs" can do for eat-in or carry-out for $8, with no fuss and no muss? They have great ribs, too. And fried chicken. You seem to miss the whole point of having a pig roast. It's an event. The one we did in Puerto Rico started mid morning, lasted all day and went on well into the evening. Many people, both Navy and native Puerto Ricans participated with their families. Fun time for all with lots to eat, softball games, beer and soda. The boy simply does not understand. |

So, you think a half teaspoon of Lawry's and a little sprinkle of kosher salt is more harmful than all the beef you bozos eat, eh? I was curious about the gravy mix too. It sounds like 1360 MG of salt you don't need for a minuscule amount of extra flavor since the gravy mix is basically salt, flour, starch, onion powder and some dried beef fat for flavor. Didn't you already have real beef in there? I assume you seared it well before you started the braise. As all the dry ingredients are pretty much dissolved into about three cups of liquid, and you might have a couple of tablespoons of that liquid on your plate and the bit of the liquid absorbed by the beouf pieces you actually eat, I doubt the salt intake per serving is worrisome. And yes, it was seared on all sides before I started the real cooking process. It would s not the liquid absorbed by the beef, it is the salt that is worrisome.
