Pulled Pork Tinta Sliders
Ingredients:
1 Pork loin or pork roast
2 Tbsp olive oil
1 bottle Old Vine Tinta Port
Salt and Pepper
Soft slider buns, as many as needed
Provolone cheese, 1 package sliced
French-fried onions (packaged)
Coleslaw (optional)
Directions:
Heat 2 Tbsp olive oil in skillet until sizzling hot. Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper. Sear the whole pork loin or pork roast on all sides until dark brown.
Place roast in crock pot and cover with Old Vine Tinta Port. (Depending on the size of your roast, you may have some left for the chef!) Simmer on low setting overnight. Remove roast and pull apart the tender pork using two large forks. (Can also be set on medium for about 6 hours, or high for 4 hours. The longer and lower it cooks, the more tender it will be--but delicious at all settings.)
Serve pulled pork on bun with cheese, and french-fried onions. Add coleslaw on each slider. (For coleslaw, use your favorite recipe or a packaged option from the produce department that includes dressing.)

No-Bake Chocolate Tawny Cookies
Ingredients:
Measure whole wafers and pecans into a food processor and pulse until crumbs. Add cocoa powder, powdered sugar, Karo syrup, and Tawny Port. Pulse again until well mixed.
Roll into small, 1" balls and set aside on a tray. Once all dough is rolled, drop them a couple at a time into a bowl of powdered sugar and coat.
