Fried Deviled Eggs
We love deviled eggs at our house. They aren’t just for leftover Easter eggs or for hot summer days. We have them in the winter with slow cooker barbecued pork, as a side dish for broiled fish and with the assortment of excess leftovers we froze over the holidays. They are a great protein source…
Merry Christmas

Pork Shoulder BBQ
