JULIA CHILD'S PORK WITH ALLSPICE DRY RUB



Julia Child's Pork With Allspice Dry Rub image

The allspice is really what makes this recipe, adapted from "Mastering the Art of French Cooking" by Julia Child, which was featured in a New York Times article about readers' favorite recipes from her cookbooks. It is a simple process: make a dry rub, cover a well-marbled pork loin with it for at least 6 hours, and then roast or grill the meat. A few minutes' preparation before work yields a fine roast for a late supper, or the same time spent on a weekend brings a fine feast in for dinner.

Categories     dinner, roasts, main course

Time 7h30m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 7

3-to 4-pound boneless pork roast with a good marbling of fat, or two large tenderloins for the grill
4 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1 teaspoon dried thyme or sage leaves
1 bay leaf, crushed
1/4 teaspoon ground allspice
2 cloves garlic, minced or put through a press

Steps:

  • Dry the meat well with paper towels. In a bowl or a mortar, mix the remaining ingredients together and rub into the surface of the pork. Place in a covered dish and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 6 hours or up to 2 days. Turn the meat 2 or 3 times if the marinade is a short one; several times a day if longer.
  • Heat oven to 325 degrees, or a grill to medium-high. Scrape off the marinade and dry the meat thoroughly with paper towels.
  • For roasting, place meat on a rack in a shallow pan and turn often until just cooked through, about 30 minutes per pound or until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees.
  • For grilling, place tenderloins on oiled grate, cover, and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 2 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 140 degrees. Cover meat with foil and let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

ALL-PURPOSE DRY RUB



All-Purpose Dry Rub image

Here is a rub that provides a fast, flavorful coating for barbecue: beef, pork, chicken, lamb, venison. It calls for the process known as indirect grilling, in which you build a fire on one side of your grill and cook on the other, so that the meat is never in direct contact with flame. (If you grill this rub directly, the sugar and spices will burn rather than melt into appetizing darkness.) The recipe is forgiving. You might add granulated onion or garlic powder to it, or omit the coriander if you don't have any. Be careful with the paprika, as there are so many different varieties afoot: if it's smoked, you'll need less, and if it's fiery you may need less cayenne. No cayenne? Use red pepper flakes. Adjust the seasonings to your taste, then apply liberally.

Provided by Sam Sifton

Time 5m

Yield 2 3/4 cups

Number Of Ingredients 8

1/2 cup paprika, or 1/3 cup smoked paprika
1/4 cup kosher salt
1/4 cup freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup brown sugar
1/4 cup chile powder
3 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground coriander
1 tablespoon cayenne pepper, or to taste

Steps:

  • Combine all ingredients in a bowl and mix well with a fork to break up the sugar and combine the spices. Mixture will keep in an airtight container, out of the light, for a few months.

Tips:

  • Select the right cuts of meat: Choose high-quality, flavorful cuts of meat that will benefit from the dry rub, such as steaks, roasts, ribs, and chicken.
  • Use a generous amount of rub: Apply a liberal coating of the dry rub to the meat, ensuring that it is evenly distributed. This will help to create a flavorful crust and infuse the meat with delicious herbs and spices.
  • Let the meat rest: After applying the dry rub, let the meat rest for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight, to allow the flavors to penetrate the meat.
  • Cook the meat over high heat: When cooking the meat, use high heat to sear the outside and create a flavorful crust. This will help to lock in the juices and prevent the meat from drying out.
  • Baste the meat with the pan juices: While the meat is cooking, baste it with the pan juices to keep it moist and flavorful. This will also help to prevent the meat from burning.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the meat is cooked to your desired doneness, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature.

With its combination of aromatic herbs, earthy spices, and a hint of citrus, this dry rub will add a delicious crust and tender, juicy interior to your favorite cuts of meat.
