  1. In a mixing bowl, combine pork, green garlic, salt, dextrose, fennel, and paprika. Transfer to an airtight container and refrigerate overnight.

  2. The next day, using a meat grinder fitted with a coarse die, grind meat mixture. Transfer mixture to the bowl of a stand mixer fitted with a paddle attachment. Add parsley and mix 1 minute on low speed.

  3. Working in batches, add 960 grams cold water. Increase speed to medium and mix additional 20 seconds. Using a sausage stuffer, stuff mixture into sheep casings. On a work surface, roll sausage into a pinwheel shape. Secure using a 4-inch metal skewer. Transfer to a parchment-lined sheet tray. Cover with parchment paper and refrigerate.

  4. In a stock pot over medium-high heat, bring all ingredients, except pork, to a boil. Reduce heat and let simmer 10 minutes.

  5. In a large nonreactive container, add 12.5 liters ice and 12.5 liters water. Pour hot brine into ice water. Let cool completely. Submerge pork in brine. Let sit 4 hours at room temperature. Remove pork and transfer to an airtight container. Refrigerate.

  6. In a saucepan over high heat, add all ingredients for the Hot Honey Agrodolce. Cook until mixture begins to bubble. Reduce heat and cook 15 minutes, stirring occasionally. Once mixture has thickened, remove from heat and let cool to room temperature. Transfer to an airtight container and reserve.

  7. In a rondeau over medium-high flame, heat oil for the Radicchio Marmalade. Add onions and sweat until soft and translucent. Stir in charred radicchio and garlic. Deglaze pan with wine and vinegar. Stir in sugar, salt, and pepper. Reduce heat to medium and cook until liquid has reduced to a syrup-like consistency, stirring occasionally. Add chicken jus and orange zest. Let simmer 15 minutes, then remove from heat. Taste and adjust seasoning. Let cool.

  8. Heat and prepare a grill. On a work surface, season Pork with salt and pepper. Grill Pork 7 minutes on each side. Baste with Hot Honey Agrodolce, turning Pork frequently. Once each side of Pork is evenly charred and internal temperature reaches 138°F, remove from grill and transfer to a wire rack. Continue to baste Pork with Hot Honey Agrodolce.

  9. Grill Green Garlic Luganega until charred on both sides, then baste with Hot Honey Agrodolce. Once internal temperature of Green Garlic Luganega reaches 150°F, transfer to the wire rack with Pork. Set aside.
