how bad can life be?

In an effort to meal-plan a bit, I'm in the midst of making boeuf bourguignon and pulled pork with pork tenderloin (tenderloins have no large, unrendered chunks of fat to pluck out). I've converted my pickled carrots and turnip into coleslaw; it works surprisingly well. Do you put cheese in your pulled-pork sliders? I normally don't. My boss demands it.

  1. Cheese in a pulled pork slider? What kind of madness is this? Maybe a simple vinegared slaw or other crunchy vegetable matter, but cheese is gilding the lily. (Although if you are doing it with pork tenderloin--which I've never done before--the added fat from the cheese might not be a bad thing.)

  2. I'd been laboring under the impression that, classically speaking, pulled-pork sandwiches don't take cheese. But when I went online deliberately to find recipes with cheese, I found a gazillion of them. So somebody likes their pulled pork with cheese.

  3. I will admit that people liking cheese on their pulled pork sandwiches seems like only a mildly deviant preference compared to a lot of what you see online.
