Hello Mary,
There is a recipe on this site:
Deep-Fried Boston Butt
That recipe uses their cooker and their spices and their sauces.
For a more generic recipe, see here:

Hi Rhonda,
Sure.
Cream of tartar is an acidic white powder that's derived from the residue
left in wine barrels after the wine is drained out. It's mainly used to
stabilize egg whites, and as the acidic component of some baking powder
mixtures.
The main component of it is potassium bitartrate - KHC4H4O6 . Aside from
the above uses, potassium bitartrate is used in some laxatives.
I would say that any medical use other than as a laxative would be in the
realm of folk medicine.

Butterfinger Cheesecake
1 1/2 cups chocolate graham-cracker crumbs
3/4 stick unsalted butter, melted
1/8 cup packed golden brown sugar
2 tablespoons plus 1 teaspoon vanilla extract (divided use)
3 (8-ounce) packages cream cheese, softened to room temperature
1 cup sugar, sifted
1 cup sour cream
4 large eggs
1 3/4 cups crushed Butterfinger bars (divided use)
5 ounces semisweet chocolate

Preheat oven to 350 F. Butter 9-inch springform pan. Blend graham-cracker crumbs,
butter, brown sugar and 1 teaspoon vanilla until moist. Press onto bottom and 2

For filling, beat cream cheese, sugar and 2 tablespoons vanilla in large bowl until well
blended. Beat in sour cream. Add eggs, 1 at a time, beating after each addition. Add
1 1/2 cups crushed Butterfingers. Pour into pan. Bake about an hour, until golden on
top, cracked on edges and set a little in the center. Transfer to rack. Let cool.
Meanwhile, coarsely chop chocolate and place in medium bowl. Heat cream. When it
begins to boil, pour over chocolate. Let sit 1 minute, then stir until smooth.
Take one-third of the mixture and put into plastic zip bag. Set aside. Put the
remaining two-thirds in the refrigerator for about 10 minutes to thicken. Remove and
spread over cake. Then sprinkle remaining 1/4 cup Butterfingers over the glaze.
Finally, drizzle remaining chocolate from the plastic bag over the top. Refrigerate
overnight.
