Well smoked a rubless Boston Butt Sunday, but it was so cold, the kids didnâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]t show, so the missus and I had Yukon Gold smashed potatoes and Hot Pork sammiches w/Pork Gravy last night. So tonight I grabbed 4 or 5 thick slices of that lovely smoked pork, cut em into strips and whipped me up a batch of tantalizing Smoked Pork Szechuan with about a #9 heat, my sweetie thought it a bit too zippy for her palate :oops: I thought it was the cats meow! :roll: Ah So! Sorry no shots, I ate the model! :shock:

We can forgive the lack of pictures but ... only if you share your recipe.

Ah so papa san, Confusius say man who not share recipe fall into disfavor :( sounds really good. Especially the the #9 heat

Carl, I saw that 2 tbs of chile paste in the recipe and my forehead broke out in a sweat!! I am going to try this but I gotta tame it down a bit for Mrs. Dutch. The only thing she likes hot is me!! Opps did I really type that!!! SHOCK!!
 
Well, Roger…with the pepper flake infused oil and the 2 Tbs of chili paste I figure normal people have their limits, I of course had to squirt some additional srirachi sauce on my portion or my sweetie would have been dining on cheese crackers!
 
As a correction, please note…the smoked pork was a butt not a loin (however Iâ€[emoji]8482[/emoji]m sure a loin would make for a perfectly fine substitute, albeit maybe not quite as tender as a butt). Thank you!
 
Rodger, I gave you a smiley face :)
 
That sounds like it would taste great (maybe minus a bit of the heat although it is so cold here in Michigan I am not sure I would feel the heat).

I give you 2 gold stars for a great sounding recipe
