1,205 Recipes. The Most Versatile Meat in the Kitchen.
Pork might be the world’s most loved meat — and for good reason. It’s affordable, deeply flavourful, and works beautifully across every cooking method: roasted, grilled, braised, cured, smoked, or slow-cooked until it falls apart. The Pork Cookbook brings you 1,205 recipes that celebrate pork in every form, from a quick weeknight chop to a low-and-slow weekend feast.
Inside you’ll find:
Pork chops — pan-seared, grilled, stuffed, and baked
Pulled pork and slow-cooked shoulder roasts
Ribs — baby back, St. Louis, country-style
Pork belly — crispy skin, braises, and Asian-style preparations
Ham — glazed, baked, and leftover transformations
Sausage dishes — links, patties, and sausage-based mains
Bacon recipes beyond breakfast
International pork classics — carnitas, tonkatsu, char siu, porchetta
Ground pork in dumplings, meatballs, and pasta sauces
Every recipe is written for the home cook — no smoker required, no specialist butchery skills. Just honest, flavourful pork, cooked well.
Author’s note:
“I grew up in a house where pork was Sunday. Whether it was crackling from a slow-roasted shoulder or sausages on a weeknight, it was always the most comforting thing on the table. This collection is everything I’ve learned about making pork sing — from the cheapest cuts to the most celebratory roasts.”
