Pumpkins aren't just for pies or Halloween decorations. These large, orange gourds - while naturally sweet - also work well in savory dishes. They pair well with poultry and pork (and especially bacon) and their creamy-when-cooked texture blends easily into soups.

- #52316

ingredients
2 tablespoons minced garlic
1 tablespoon grated lemon peel (colored part only)
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
2 teaspoons salt (divided)
5 pounds boneless pork rib roast, untied
3 tablespoons olive oil
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
5 sprigs fresh rosemary
directions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
Put garlic, lemon peel, pepper flakes and half the salt in food processor or blender. Process to a paste. Set aside 1 1/2 teaspoons paste and rub remainder into underside of the meat. Tie roast neatly with string.
Using a small, sharp knife, make 4 incisions in the roast, about 1/2 inch long and 1/2 inch deep. Stuff the incisions with the remaining paste. Rub roast all over with olive oil, then with black pepper and remaining salt. Tie the rosemary sprigs onto the roast with string.
Place the roast on a rack in a roasting pan and roast until meat is done (2 to 2 1/2 hours). Remove and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

This iconic whiskey is a "Jack of all trades" when it comes to cooking. Toss it in some pasta, as a savory dipping sauce, and even bake it into something sweet.
