Today we are setting the table with the pig. We visit with Dr. Tom Gallaher of Knoxville. He and his wife Caryn are well-known doctors in Knoxville - and he is also a farmer - and he and his family are hosting the Third Annual Hog Creek Cotillion in Waynesboro TN Saturday, November 9th with an all-day whole hog roast, BBQ, and all the fixings, and live music which benefits two non-profit organizations: Southern Foodways Alliance and the Tunnels to Towers Foundation.

And back by popular demand - we also hear from Barry and Aliceson Bales of Bales Farm in Mosheim TN and how Barry smokes his pork shoulder and makes his BBQ Sauce.
