Above pix taken on 11-24-05 at the Porter Home.  The workstation/bar island gets a workout during the Holidays!  Recipes featured are mostly of the Southern Cooking Style and substituting more healthier ingredients such as extra virgin olive oil and Canola oil instead of "fat back" and hog lard when possible.  However, the taste of a buttermilk biscuit with pure hog lard baked in a wood stove is not easily duplicated with healthier ingredients and a few consumed every once in a while might be worth the risk!  Some of the recipes listed go beyond the borders of Southern cuisine into International cuisine, however that Southern Anson County, NC style of cooking still filters into the recipes!  Featured are Wild Game recipes mostly venison, however you can easily substitute and adapt the recipes for beef.   Personal use of the above recipes and pictures are allowed, however please do not  publish them without written permission from Webmaster Bill Porter.

Many have asked if the Adcock Family Traditions Cookbook circa 1997 referenced on this website is available, but it is out of print and the original publisher no longer does cookbooks and does not have the cookbook material archived.  If there is enough interest, I will look into the possibility of a reprint or a CD version for sale.  Bill aka Mickey Porter 01-19-09.
