I don't know why. Usually when I decide to have a party, the menu is pretty much the first thing I do and it rarely changes unless it is an ingredient finding problem.
However, here we are four days and counting away from P-Day and I'm still unsure on the entree. The rest of the menu, I think, is pretty set in stone.
The candidates?
Hickory Smoked Maple Glazed Pork Tenderloin
Goat Cheese & Fig Stuffed Chicken Breasts
Bourbon Pecan Chicken
Flank Steak w/Chimichurri Sauce
...and I am still scouring cookbooks.
I want something great - not average, really great. But (there is always a butt) I don't want to spend loads of time in the kitchen after the party starts. I want to enjoy it too.
Any suggestions?

I am always inspired by the barefoot contessa, she keeps her dishes pretty simple - but they sure do impress. Record a couple of episodes, you never know what you'll find.
I vote for pork. I think the pig is one of God's greatest creations.
Bacon, ham, pork chops, more bacon ...
You could simply serve bacon and I would be pleased!
The Lobster & Corn Chowder sounds delicious as well.
Creme brulee for dessert?
I have decided on pork (wonder why?). Now just to decide what to stuff it with...
Oh and I am glad to see FMM Mary here. When she said she stopped following a oarticular blog because it was boring - I was sure she was talking about me :-))
