  1. Whisk flour, sugar, baking powder, baking soda, and salt together in medium bow.
  2. In separate bowl whisk together buttermilk, sour cream, eggs, and melted butter.
  3. Make well in middle of dry ingredients and pour in wet ingredients. Gently stir until just combined (batter should remain lumpy, with few streaks of flour). Let batter sit for 10 minutes before cooking.
  4. Heat 1 tsp oil in 12" skillet over medium heat until shimmering. Using paper towels, carefully wipe out the oil, leaving thin film of oil on bottom and sides of pan.
  5. Using 1/4 C measure, portion batter into pan. Cook until edges are set, first side is brown, and bubbles on surface are just beginning to break, 2-3 minutes. Using thin, wide spatula, flip pancakes and continue to cook until second side is golden brown, 1-2 minutes longer.

Instructions
  1. For the crust, stir together the flour, salt, sugar, and cinnamon.
  2. Cut in the cold butter using a pastry cutter or fork until the mixture resembles coarse sand. (Alternatively, pulse the dry ingredients with the butter in a food processor.)
  3. Slowly drizzle in cold water and stir gently until the dough is moist enough to stay together when squeezed. (Alternatively, drizzle cold water into food processor, pulsing a few times to combine.)
  4. Quickly press the dough into a disk and wrap in plastic wrap. Chill in the fridge for 30 minutes.
  5. When you're ready to bake, preheat the oven to 350° F. Roll the dough out in between two pieces of parchment and then press into tart pan(s). Line crust(s) with parchment and fill with pie weights.
  6. Blind bake the pie crusts for 10 to 12 minutes or until the crust is cooked through. Remove the pie weights and parchment and bake for another 5 to 7 minutes until the edges start to brown. Set the crusts aside to cool.
  7. Heat milk, honey, and the scraped vanilla pod in a saucepan until scalding. Whisk together the egg yolks, vanilla caviar (i.e. the scraped beans from the vanilla pod), salt, and cornstarch until smooth and pale. Temper the yolks with a little of the hot milk mixture. Whisk slowly. Continue adding the milk little by little, whisking until smooth.
  8. Pour the custard base back into the saucepan and place over low heat. Cook slowly, whisking continuously until thickened. The custard should come to a gentle boil.
  9. Remove the custard from the heat and whisk in the butter and vanilla extract. Fish out the vanilla pod and sieve to remove any lumps. Cover with plastic wrap and cool to room temperature.
  10. Pour the cooled custard into the cooled pie crust(s). Cover with plastic wrap and chill completely (about 2 hours).
  11. Set the tart out at room temperature for 10 to 15 minutes before slicing and serving.

Instructions
  1. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Score fat side of pork roast in diamond pattern. Rub the entire roast all over with the oil, seasonings, and spoon on and spread the grainy mustard all over the top. Let stand for one hour.
  2. Spray your roasting pan with cooking spray. Place the vegetables into roasting pan and pour in beer. Place the roast in the roasting pan on top of the vegetables. Cover tightly and roast for one hour.
  3. Remove cover and continue roasting for another hour, uncovered, and check the temperature. It may need two hours, but mine was done earlier. It should be 140-160 (depends on how well-done you want the roast). It will continue cooking as it rests.
  4. Remove from oven and place on a large carving board; cover with foil and let rest for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove and save the vegetables to serve on the side (or discard).
  5. Put some hot water in the pan with the juices, scraping up the bits and pieces. Add enough to make 2 cups. Make a roux by blending the flour and butter together very well in a saucepan; add the pan juices and bring to a simmer, whisking to blend well. For additional richness, the gravy may be finished with a little more butter, cream or sour cream. The gravy will be rich, dark and delicious.
  6. Slice the roast thinly and serve with the gravy. Refrigerate or freeze leftover slice
Recipe Notes

Save the bone to make a delicious bone broth.

Made it, but the roast I used had been chopped a bit - I cut off about 2 pounds for another recipe, so it was a little smaller.  And I made a simple beef gravy instead of this one, just because this was done early, and was sitting for a bit.

Check the meat after an hour - it should be 140F internal when you remove it - it will continue cooking when you take it out and cover it, end up about 145-150F, which is just done, not quite medium well.

Enjoy!

Instructions
  1. Cook bacon according to package instructions. Allow to cool and chop cooked bacon into small pieces.
  2. Preheat oven to 350° F. Grease a bundt cake pan and coat with cocoa powder instead of flour.
  3. In a medium sized bowl, sift flour and cocoa powder. I usually sift my cocoa powder with a sieve instead of my actual sifter. Add baking powder and salt and set aside.
  4. In a microwave safe bowl, melt butter. Combine melted butter in mixing bowl with oil and sugar. Beat on medium speed for 3 minutes until light and fluffy.
  5. Add eggs, one at a time, ensure that each egg is well beaten before adding the next one. After all eggs have been added, add the vanilla extract and sour cream.
  6. Alternate adding the flour mixture and the bourbon. First, pour in half of the dry ingredients and beat for 30 seconds before adding half of the bourbon. Repeat with remaining flour mixture and remaining bourbon.
  7. Pour batter in the greased coated bundt cake pan. Bake at 350°F for 45-50 minutes. Check for doneness by inserting a toothpick into the center of the cake. If the toothpick comes out clean, your cake is done.
  8. Transfer to a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes. After 30 minutes, place the wire rack on top of the bundt pan and flip it over. Gently tapping the sides to release the cake. You may want to put a piece of parchment paper or a plate over the cake before you flip it so you can easily move it off the wire rack without sticking. If the cake does not release, take a butter knife and gently insert along the edge of the pan to help release.
  9. For the glaze:
  10. Sift powered sugar. The step is necessary to create a smooth glaze.
  11. Melt butter in a saucepan. Once melted, continue to stir until butter turns a golden brown.
  12. Pour melted butter over powdered sugar. Add maple syrup and milk. Whisk until smooth.
  13. For a thicker glaze, add only 1 tablespoon of milk instead of two. Or add additional powered sugar. To make glaze thinner, add additional milk.
  14. This next step is optional and a little tricky. I like my glaze to drip off the sides of the cake and not pool up in the middle. However, it becomes difficult to move the cake once glazed. I happen to own a cake lift, but I suggest using two large knife to move the cake after glaze.
  15. Gently remove/side cake from plate and onto wire rack. Place a sheet of wax paper below wire rack (for easy clean up).
  16. Gently pour glaze over cake. Sprinkle with bacon pieces.
