DIVINE SWINE

I'll Have What She's Having
by Denise DiTrani, Deirdre Flanagan Ward

Food For Thought: If variety is the spice of life, barbecue is its glaze.
Good things come to those who wait with this 10-hour slow cook-a-thon. The homemade barbecue sauce (see recipe) puts the pizzazz in this mouth watering Memphis favorite. Your guests will be squealing for more.
