Time 5m

Number Of Ingredients 26

1/2 cup hoisin sauce*
1/4 cup rice vinegar
2 tablespoons oyster sauce*
2 tablespoons low-sodium soy sauce (or tamari)
1 teaspoon toasted sesame oil
1/2 teaspoon each: freshly-cracked black pepper, garlic powder
1 batch Homemade BBQ Sauce
2/3 cup pineapple juice
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons ground ginger
2 teaspoons low-sodium soy sauce
1 teaspoon Chinese five-spice powder
1/2 teaspoon each: freshly-cracked black pepper, garlic powder
optional: pinch of crushed red pepper flakes
1/2 cup fresh orange juice
1/3 cup fresh lime juice
1/3 cup chopped fresh cilantro
2 tablespoons olive oil
2 teaspoons ground cumin
1 teaspoon each: chili powder, salt
1/2 teaspoon each: dried oregano, freshly-cracked black pepper, garlic powder
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
1/4 cup coarse-grain dijon mustard
1/4 cup maple syrup
1/4 cup olive oil
optional: 1-2 tablespoons finely-chopped fresh rosemary

Steps:

  • Whisk together the ingredients for (one) marinade in a small bowl until combined.
  • Combine marinade with pork in a ziplock freezer bag, and toss until the pork is evenly coated in the marinade. Carefully press out any extra air that might be in the bag, then seal. (You will need 1/2 cup marinade per 1 pound of pork.)
  • Refrigerate the pork pack(s) for anywhere from 30 minutes to up to 1 day.
  • Immediately transfer the pork pack(s) to the freezer, and freeze for up to 3 months. Then when you're ready to cook the pork, transfer the pork pack back to the refrigerator for 24 hours, or until it has thawed completely. Or to speed up the process, you can submerge the sealed pork pack in a bowl of cold water in the refrigerator until it has thawed completely.
  • When ready to cook, remove the pork from the marinade, discard the remaining marinade, and cook however you prefer. (See recommendations below.)

DELICIOUS PORK MARINADE



Delicious Pork Marinade image

This recipe was given to me by a good friend, during a recipe swap. It makes your pork chops, or loin, so juicy and delicious, without overpowering the natural flavor. You can marinade as little as 30 minutes, or overnight if you like, for more flavor. I have substituted ingredients more than once, and it is still great.

Tips:

  • To enhance the flavor of your pork, select a high-quality cut of meat. A well-marbled cut, such as pork shoulder or pork loin, will yield the most flavorful results.
  • Don't be afraid to experiment with different flavor combinations. From classic herbs and spices to more exotic ingredients, the possibilities are endless.
  • Allow your pork to marinate for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. This will give the flavors time to penetrate the meat.
  • When grilling or roasting your pork, be sure to cook it to an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let your pork rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

With so many marinade recipes to choose from, you're sure to find one that suits your taste buds. A good marinade can take your pork dish from ordinary to extraordinary. Whether you're grilling, roasting, or baking your pork, a marinade will help to tenderize the meat and infuse it with flavor. So next time you're cooking pork, be sure to give it a marinade.
