Park Slope Pork Off Pig Out Recap

If you missed it this Sunday, here's your Park Slope Pork Off Pig Out Recap.

Wow, that was a mouthfull!

Just like trying to take in all the tasty bites on offer from the 15+ professional/home chefs cooking up the pork at Loki Lounge.

Among my favorite dishes, the home-cured pork belly by Jonathan (winner of the Bacon Takedown), Melissa's pulled pork sandwich with homemade pickles, and Nick’s braised ham hocks with collard greens. Yum!

I also loved the "Pate Kirnan", though the tasty morsels were gone by the time I was ready to sample the goods! We secretly wished Pat Kirnan, our fave, snarky New York One reporter, could have seen it!

The turn out was amazing for such a rainy day, and we were thankful for all the people pigging out, since it was for a good cause: Kamay at Puso. We heart cook offs for charity.

Laurel Fantauzzo was terrific as hostess and hopes to make it a yearly event.
