- Cheryl's Recipe Corner
- Tasso
- Description
- Our recipe this week comes from the cookbook, Zydeco et pas salè (https://a.co/d/0yGdwOD), with all the fabulous Cajun recipes, that our friend and longtime listener, Hutch (K9KJN) published. He recently told me that I could use any of his recipes in the Recipe corner, so I opened up the cookbook today, closed my eyes and just pointed... and this is the recipe I selected! I'm really happy I did... I love the Tasso he prepares.
- Ingredients (Tasso Meat)
- 1 5-pound pork tenderloin, sliced into ¼-inch-thick rounds
- 5 cups Worcestershire sauce
- 5 cups Tasso Seasoning (recipe below)
- Ingredients (Tasso Seasoning)
- 1 cup coarse-ground black pepper
- 1 cup kosher salt
- 1 cup cayenne powder
- 1 cup brown sugar
- 1-1/2 cups granulated garlic
- 1 tablespoon allspice
- Directions
- Marinate the sliced pork tenderloin in Worcestershire sauce overnight. Remove the meat and drain. Combine all tasso seasoning ingredients and place the tasso seasoning onto a large, flat platter and dredge the pork in the seasoning, coating both sides. Layer the pork in a large colander, covering each layer with extra seasoning. Place the colander in a large pan to catch any liquids, cover with aluminum foil and refrigerate for at least 3 days. Preheat a smoker. Remove the meat and place in the preheated smoker. Cook until the tasso reaches an internal temperature of 155 degrees. Makes about 3 pounds of Tasso Note: This makes a jerky like meat. Very spicy, but delicious!

- Face Off
- Description
- Bill brought me a lovely bottle of Huckleberry Vodka, from Bozeman Spirits (Bozeman, MT) to Hamvention. I was encouraged, during the last Weekender, that I needed to find a recipe to share with everyone that featured the vodka. Here is what I found (and what I found goes well with the vodka). While I have not found this specific brand on shelves in Missouri, 360 Vodka (based out of Weston, MO) has a Huckleberry Vodka that would be quite tasty this way if you find that on your store shelves.
- Ingredients
- 2 oz Huckleberry Flavored Vodka
- 1 oz Blue Curacao
- 3 oz lemonade
- Ice
- Directions
- Add ice, Huckleberry Flavored Vodka, and blue curaçao to a shaker. Shake and strain into a glass with fresh ice. Top with lemonade.

- Bumbu XO Rum
- Description
- Bumbu XO is truly a thing of beauty. An aged rum that is smooth, rich and complex. Created from scratch by our master distiller, our XO aged rum is matured in ex-bourbon barrels and selectively finished in white oak sherry casks to achieve a beautifully balanced, endlessly sippable rum. This special release is distilled and aged in Panama, where we created a truly unique – and unquestionably superior – rum. Aromas of toffee, toasted oak, and vanilla give way to orange zest, peppery spice and even a hint of coffee on the palate. A wonderfully engaging rum that encourages repeat visits, Bumbu XO is perfect for traditional rum cocktails – and perhaps even better on its own, neat or with a single ice cube.
