pork makes a party easy *GIVEAWAY*

I am thrilled to be partnering with the National Pork Board this year in honor of National Pork Month. (Didn’t know pork has it’s own month? Today is also National Kick Butt Day, in case you were wondering.)

To celebrate October as National Pork Month, Costco is offering discounts on top pork cuts from chops and roasts to pork tenderloin and boneless loins. Costco members can take advantage of weekly savings ranging from $2.00-$2.50.

Between October 8 and October 14, Sirloin Tip Roast is $2.00 off. Available only at Costco, the sirloin tip roast is a flavorful, marbled cut perfect for the slow cooker and great for entertaining. Not only does this slow-cooking, low-maintenance roast give the host more time to actually enjoy the party, it also comfortably feeds a big crowd on a small budget.

We love pork – just last week, I made a honey mustard pork tenderloin that was divine! Pork is easy, inexpensive and makes great leftovers! Check out this great video sharing a recipe for Vietnamese Spring Rolls with Slow Cooked Pork . YUM!!!

Want to head to Costco and take advantage of this fabulous sale?

WIN IT!

I’m giving away a $50 Costco Cash Card plus a meat thermometer to one lucky winner. If you’re not a member, you can use your cash card to join! To enter, simply watch the video above and tell us your favorite part in the comments.

    I love this recipe! It seems easy to follow, which I need. I have been wanting to try something like this for a while, but all the recipes I find are way to complex for me.
