FREE PORK – final Porktastic freebie wraps up Pork Month

by porktastic on October 30, 2009

Just when you thought it couldn’t get any better…we’ve saved the best for last.

Actually, the hard-workin’ folks that comprise the Ohio Pork Producers upped the ante. What’s better than Nice Chops, you ask?

How ’bout FREE CHOPS (or bacon, ham, pork loin…you name it!)

$5 of free pork!

A $5 gift certificate for free pork

could be yours for the taking, courtesy of Ohio Pork Producers and the National Pork Board. Just let us know what you would do if the Pork Fairy blessed your plate with free pork. (Mr.Oinkers@gmail.com)

Blow us away with your response to Mr. Oinkers and you could receive more than one certificate (…though we’re not makin’ promises and our supply is limited).

Let’s face it…it doesn’t get any more Porktastic than this!

We’ll notify the world of this week’s winners once National Pork Month is officially in the books.

More props for "Nice Chops" – Porktastic giving it away…again

by porktastic on October 29, 2009

So, we’re wading through the avalanche of mail that has all but crushed the land of Porktastic. At the same time, we find ourselves groovin’ to that 1979 adult-contemp slow burner, you know, that age-old seducer by Captain & Tennille…with a porktastic twist?

“Do that to me one more time, once is never enough…

with a shirt like that…”

Nice Chops - back by popular demand!

 

 

 

 

 

A pork epiphany? Divine swine intervention? Guilt on our part? Call it what you will, but we can’t ignore this calling…

Back by popular demand and thanks to our Indiana Pork pals, “Nice Chops” is back  for Thursday’s Porktastic freebie.

But get creative, people. Tell us why you deserve it — or why you love us – and soon you could be sportin’  the Nice Chops.

Mr.Oinkers@gmail.com . . . c’mon, do it for us…one more time.
