It came close to disappearing from the shelves here for a few weeks due to meat processing plant closures. We eat pork at least every couple weeks. I would miss it but of course, there are substitutes for everything but bacon.

I made the girl & goat cauliflower sauce (Parmesan cheese, bread crumbs, butter, toasted almonds, mint) to go with the roasted cauliflower. my spouse loved the sauce so much that Ill cook it together next time. Its definitely good and I already really love just plain roasted cauliflower.

and for dill sauce, I learned to add in some mustard. Who knew :-)
make a separate batch for yourself with the garlic ....it adds a lot.

My pleasure.

It's traditionally served with gravlax.

Here are variations from Epicurious and Williams Sonoma. There are many more.

We had 9 hour smoked pork shoulder last night which I did on tacos with a pico de gallo and some greek yogurt with lemon juice. Mum came over as well, I hadn't seen here in a couple of months even though she lives one suburb over, because of her age and her asthma she had been isolating. Was nice to catch up.

There are substitutes for pork bacon. Turkey bacon, and let me introduce you to my little friend, beef bacon.

Beef bacon, maybe. Turkey bacon, no.

Turkey bacon is a poor substitute. Ive tried, god knows Ive tried, but I cannot make myself believe Im eating bacon. It doesnt even work well in recipes. Id be willing to try beef bacon and hope I could keep an open mind. But Ive never seen it or even heard of it. Im guessing I need to find a kosher/halal market.

how do you grill the corn - with or without husk? I grill mine with some husk and I try to remove those silky strands which are difficult to compost and excise - I try to avoid them going down the drain!

i was so stuffed from those evergood sausages at luncheon yesterday!
last nights supper:

cheeseburger sliders on roll-ppang
crab cakes
leftover oven fries at 350
topo Chico

You should grill it in the husk, and once cooked the cornsilk is easier to remove.

I grill corn after I've removed the husks. Simply smother with butter and wrap in tin foil - grill on the top shelf for 20+ minutes, depending upon the heat.

I forgot to mention dessert---Caramel Cookie Crunch gelato
Gaobest...I clean the corn of all silk, husk etc. I put it on a piece of foil and sprinkle with water. Seal the foil up tightly and put on grill to steam in the foil for about 3 minutes. Then I take it out of foil and put on grates to get some char while turning...maybe another 3-4 minutes. I like my corn barely cooked. Brought it in and smeared with a mix of softened butter, mayo, parmesan--then Maldon salt and cracked pepper.

I don't like to deal with cleaning silk and especially not husks off a hot ear of corn & burning my hands. Plus, the silk burns on the grill.

My routine is different. I too clean the corn, then put enclose in a double-wrapped foil packet after first putting in a generous pat of butter and one ice cube. I then grill over charcoal while whatever meat I'm cooking is also grilling, turning the corn packet every few minutes. After removing from the grill, poke a few holes to let steam out, let stand 5 minutes and then remove from packet and serve.
