Sage Pork Tips and Rice Dressing with all the flavors of Thanksgiving. The pork tips are cooked low and slow in the oven with mushrooms and onions and a sprig of fresh sage and thyme nestled in the broth.
I grabbed a large package of pork tips and our local Sams this past week at a terrific price. I like to cook half of the package and then freeze the rest, but this time I decided to cook the whole package. As the temperatures here in North East Texas is getting pretty chili, I couldn't wait to cook something warm and comforting.
We love beef tips, and I wanted to use the same cooking method of low and slow as I do with them. I cooked the Pork Tips in a 300 degree oven for 2 hours.
