Finger Lick'in Good Pulled Pork and Murdered Lemon Meringue Pie.


Pulled Pork
Yummm! Yum, yum…yum yum!!!!
3 Lbs Pork Butt Roast
½ Bottle of your favorite BBQ Sauce
1 Tablespoon Minced Garlic
1 teaspoon Liquid Smoke
Salt and Pepper
  1. Rub your meat down.
  2. Throw her in the slow cooker with remaining ingredients, on low for 10-12 hours. 
  3. Half way through the time frame, turn the meat over so that it may be evenly cooked, and tenderized. Other than that, NO PEAKING! I know it looks good. 
  4. When done cooking take two forks to shred the meat. This should be effortless.

I added 3/4 of a bottle and it ended up a bit too liquidy, unless that is the way it is supposed to look.

Lemon Meringue Pie aka Pie Murder Number Two
The BF and I both beat the meringue by hand, and with a mixer. Please don’t laugh. And I put the poor sucker in a tart pan.
When it first came out of the oven the meringue fulfilled the entire pan. =[

Homemade single crust, (it would be wise to bake it before hand)
Juice and zest of 2 lemons,
(You are going to need ¼ cup of water)
1 cup sugar, (for the pie filling)
2 tbsp flour,
3 tbsp cornstarch,
1/4 tsp salt,
4 egg whites,
4 egg yolks
2 tbsp butter,
6 tbsp sugar.(for meringue)


  1. Preheat your oven to 350°F.
  2. To a medium saucepan, add your sugar, flour, cornstarch, and salt. Mix together.
  3. Grab your water, lemon juice, and lemon zest. Combine them all together( in a sauce pan). Pour over your dry mixture and place over medium heat.
  4. Stir constantly until it comes to a boil. Keep stirring and add your butter. Stir until your mixture begins to thicken.
  5. Grab your beaten egg yolks. Pour about 1/2 cup of your lemon mixture over your beaten egg yolks. Mix together well.
  6. Pour your egg mixture back with the rest of your lemon mixture into your saucepan. Mix until it is nice and thick.
  7. Grab your egg whites. Beat until it starts becoming foamy. Add your 6 tbsp of sugar and continue to beat. If you have an electric mixture perfect if you don't you're arm is going to be tired. Beat your egg whites until they start to form stiff peaks.
  8. Pour your lemon filling into your pie crust.
  9. Layer your meringue over your lemon filling. To create the waves just stick and spoon into your meringue and pull it back in whatever pattern you'd like.
  10. Place in your preheated oven and bake for only 10 minutes. The top of your meringue will brown and it will be done. Obviously if you wanted to make a meringue pie like the ridiculous ones you see at restaurants you'll need to use a few more egg whites.
