Out of 28 casseroles entered in the 2nd Annual Kansas City Casserole Party on Saturday night at the ScionLab, most everyone seemed to agree there was one clear winner: Casserole No. 4, Lauren Busch’s Mojo Risin’, a braised citrus mojo pork and yucca dish. Lauren has kindly shared the recipe with me, so we can all see what kind of work (and time) goes into making a winning casserole.
For her hard work and delicious ingredients, Lauren went home with a $100 gift certificate to Pryde’s Old Westport, a $25 gift certificate to Bon Bon Atelier and a hand-made hat from Toasty Brain.
You can hear Lauren talking about prepping her casserole (and me talking for an hour about casseroles) on this episode of KCUR’s “Central Standard”.
The full recipe is after the jump.
