5. Bourbon-braised pork belly at the Farmhouse (300 Delaware). This Sunday brunch dish comes with stuffed roasted cauliflower, stuffed rabbit saddle and a rosemary pumpkin puree. It's the kind of belly warmer that makes you glad winter has arrived.
4. Milk-braised pork at the Blue Moose Bar & Grill (4160 W. 71st St., Prairie Village). Pork braised in milk and then served over skin-on mashed potatoes and grilled asparagus. All of that is then topped with a "rich pork pan sauce."
3. Krizman's kielbasa pierogies at Pieroguys Pierogies (307 Main). The potato pouches are filled with the KCK staple along with sauerkraut and mustard. This might be what heaven is like for Germans.
2. Pork and ricotta meatballs at the Rieger Hotel Grill & Exchange (1924 Main). The meatballs from the bar menu are poppable, perhaps the first recorded instance of meat candy.
1. The Schweinebraten from Grunauer (101 W. 22nd St.). Roasted pork loin with braised red cabbage and bread dumplings. (If you like stuffing, you'll be happy.) It's basically Austrian Thanksgiving every night in the Freight House.

Dave beat me to it....the pork two ways is a winner.
The Choucroute Garni on the current Rieger menu....will kill you. The pork cheek is the death blow.
I've always really enjoyed the open face pork tenderloin sandwich at The Corner Cafe, it would definitely make my list. And no pork list would be complete without a nod to the "candied" pork butt served in El Comedor/Port Fonda. It is an experience like no other.
And the brined and slow-cooked pork belly confit I do at home is not too shabby...
I can't believe the Pork Two Ways from Justus didn't make the list.
Wow! I didn't know there was a photographic genre that involved dog vomit! I have 2 dogs & a Nikon...I am, like, totally gonna pursue my dream!
