Answer 3

Assuming it wasn't BBQ pork I would suggest Pork Fried Rice since the meat is already cooked.

Dice up a couple cups of the pork, heat your oil and scramble a little egg in the oil and a touch of soy sauce. Throw in your meat, a couple cloves minced garlic, diced green onions, diced carrots, frozen peas and 3-4 cups cold cooked rice broken apart.

Stir fry the rice and add pepper and soy sauce to taste while stirring. Makes a bunch, of course you will need a bunch because you will want to eat again an hour after filling yourself, but what the hey, it's good.
