This looks great! Just saw this episode for the first time. I don't eat pork, so I will use turkey sausage. Sounds like a real keeper, and I can't wait to try it.
As for the negativity of some, it's ok not to like somebody, but you don't have to watch the show. You can always get recipes right off the site instead. I was a little 'surprised' the first time I saw the Neeleys, but now I love their fun and exuberance, and their love for each other is so obvious and uplifting.

I will first say I love the show! If you do not like the show then simply do not watch it, but to post a negative comment about someone's personality is simply not appropriate. I can not wait to make this recipe. Luckily, I have a man that almost eats anything so we are regular watchers of any show on Food Network. Thank you, thank you, there have been a many of days you two have saved me by making something special.
