I had a great week down south with my girlfriend Kelsey. On our last night before heading home to New York, Kelsey’s parents, Mark and Karen, wanted to cook us dinner, Southern Style. Mark and Karen are such great and kind people. They really made me feel welcome in their home. As much as I wanted to help out in the kitchen there was no need to. Karen had taken care of everything the night before and the only thing left was to heat it up. As for Mark, he already had the Pork Loin on the grill on a low temp already cooking by the time Kelsey and I got to the house. Dinner and dessert was delicious. Thanks so much for everything Mark and Karen.

    Did I see stuffed Acorn Squash?

    I’d make a special trip to SC for that pork loin, Mark! And was Ant served any of the unique “Jesse Juice” before or after dinner?

  3. Ant Says:

    Yes Tim, it was so good

  4. Ant Says:

    NO!, There was no Jesse Juice. However, I met the legend while I was SC for a brief moment.
