Just reading the description of The Stephen Colbert, a pork chop from Trio's Restaurant in Little Rock, Arkansas has me salivating like Pavlov's dog:

If you love freedom, and we know you do, you'll love this porkchop: a porterhouse cut pork chop marinated in an apple marinade, grilled, and covered with a South Carolina peach & ginger barbeque sauce served with Sweet Home black-eyed peas, chipotle-white cheddar mashed potatoes and sautéed Swiss chard.

Damn, does that sound tasty. You might wonder, as I did, what the hell the connection is to Stephen Colbert. I believe it's the "South Carolina peach & ginger barbeque sauce," since Colbert hails from South Carolina.

The chop is only seventeen dollars, which I would gladly pay. Hell, I'd give my first born child for that pork chop.* Unfortunately, it looks as if the delectable pork chop may not be a permanent menu item. No worries, I'm trying to come up with my own version of it by putting a pork chop, a peach and a jar of applesauce in a blender. I call it a Colbert Smoothie.

*Upon reflection, perhaps I shouldn't write about food right before lunch.
