Notes: This recipe was adapted from Roger's Cajun Cookbook, Roger Productions, Ltd., Baton Rouge, Louisiana (1987). The original recipe calls for tasso rather than salt pork. I find tasso is hard to find; salt pork makes a good, albeit more salty and fatty, alternative. For those wanting a little less heat, you may wish to cut back on the jalapeņo peppers and/or Tabasco sauce.
