How about an old recipe from the 1920s Ladies' Home Journal? One caveat: It's pretty fattening, because lard is the primary ingredient. Here is a link that might be useful: Mama's Little Babies Love Shortening Bread

So good, so easy. Made this last Sunday. Pistachio bread First mixture: 1 package Yellow cake mix 1 small package pistachio pudding mix. Dry. 4 eggs 1/4 cup cooking oil 1/4 cup water 1 cup sour cream For alternate mixture: 1/2 cup sugar 2-3 tsps cinnamon, to taste 1/2 cup walnuts, chopped Mix the ingredients for the first mixture until creamy. Mixture will be quite thick. To make the alternate mixture, combine sugar with cinnamon and chopped walnuts. Grease or spray pans thoroughly. Fill pan about 1/3 full with the first mixture and then cover with the alternate mixture. Fill pan again to about 2/3rds full. Again cover with the alternate mixture. Press in a little so when it bakes, the sugar, cinnamon and nuts will not fall off. Bake at 350Â°F. Makes the following: 3- 4 X 8 pans- Bake 40-45 minutes 2- 5 X 10 pans - Bake 50-60 minutes 4 small pans - Bake 30-35 minutes

I think I got this in an email from somewhere, darn if I can remember where though! I made it with a peppered tenderloin and it was very good! My note for next time is to either make my own BBQ sauce, or buy a better one. All I had in the house was a cheap one and I only used a half of a bottle instead of the full 18 oz's. The BBQ sauce was too tart. Pulled Pork Ingredients a.. 1 (2 pound) pork tenderloin b.. 1 (12 fluid ounce) can or bottle root beer c.. 1 (18 ounce) bottle your favorite barbecue sauce d.. 8 hamburger buns, split and lightly toasted Directions 1.. Place the pork tenderloin in a slow cooker; pour the root beer over the meat. Cover and cook on low until well cooked and the pork shreds easily, 6 to 7 hours. Note: the actual length of time may vary according to individual slow cooker. Drain well. Stir in barbecue sauce. Serve over hamburger buns.
