On Chewing The Fat, the recipes really do come from everywhere. However in this case, it came from closer to home–our own kitchen. I had an intense desire for a Pork Chop and not one of those boneless half inch deals swathed in plastic wrap. …

Sweet and Smoky adds smoky flavor from maples and smoked paprika.
Also included in our samples, were 5 Simply Organics Seasoning Mixes. Extremely well-priced at $1.49 to $1.69, there are 16 in total. They make seasoning everything from Shrimp to Sloppy Joe’s a snap
