Here’s a real treat – perfect for a big family meal. The pics are from the holidays…

I cook mine less than he did (pink pork is ok!) but otherwise this is my Dad’s roast pork recipe:

Page 777 of my Joy of Cooking is really thrashed. That’s where you’ll find the cornbread recipe. I like the “Northern” version, but haven’t committed measures to memory.
