Provided by Peggy Trowbridge Filippone

Categories     Dinner     Entree     Lunch

Time P1DT6h15m

Number Of Ingredients 12

1/2 cup ground allspice berries
1/2 cup brown sugar (packed)
6 to 8 garlic cloves
4 to 6 Scotch bonnet chile peppers (trimmed and seeded, wear gloves)
1 tablespoons ground thyme (or 3 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves)
2 bunches scallions (green onions, greens included, trimmed and chopped into 2-inch pieces)
1 teaspoons ground cinnamon
1/2​ teaspoons ground nutmeg
2 teaspoons Kosher salt
Freshly ground black pepper (to taste)
2 tablespoons soy sauce (to moisten)
1 (6- to 9-pound) pork picnic shoulder roast

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Place allspice, brown sugar, garlic, Scotch bonnet peppers, thyme, scallions, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, pepper, and soy sauce in a food processor . Blend until smooth.
  • With a sharp knife, carefully score the thick fat of the pork shoulder into a diamond pattern, trying to not cut into the meat.
  • Press and massage a thick coating of the jerk sauce on the exterior of the pork so it is completely covered-gloves are encouraged for this process. Refrigerate any leftover sauce as long as it hasn't been in contact with the raw pork. It will keep for 4 to 5 weeks.
  • Place the pork in a roasting pan and cover with a lid, foil, or plastic wrap. Refrigerate to marinate at least 24 hours or for up to two days.
  • When ready to cook, let the pork sit at room temperature at least one hour or until it reaches room temperature. Then, preheat oven to 450 F.
  • Line a roasting pan with heavy foil and insert a roasting rack.
  • Roast pork uncovered for 30 minutes at this high heat, and then lower the temperature to 325 F.
  • Roast for an additional 3 to 4 hours. If you notice the crust starting to over-blacken, cover again with aluminum foil. The pork is done when an instant-read thermometer (inserted in the thickest part of the meat away from fat) reads 180 to 190 F.
  • Remove from the oven and rest for 30 minutes before carving.
  • Serve with your favorites sides and enjoy!

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 tablespoons Jamaican jerk seasoning in a jar (pick a brand with low carbs and sugars)
1/4 cup canola oil
4 pounds boneless pork loin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix jerk seasoning with the oil in a small bowl (this will thin it and cut the heat). Trim any excess fat from the pork loin, leaving a thin-layered wide strip down the center of the top. Evenly rub the entire pork loin with the jerk seasoning mixture. Place pork loin in a shallow greased roasting pan, and bake for 20 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 300 degrees F and continue baking for about 1 more hour, or until a meat thermometer stuck in the thickest part reads 145 degrees F. Remove from oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

JAMAICAN JERK PORK



Jamaican Jerk Pork image

Yet another Jerk recipe, but so far this has been the the best I have tried to date. My inability to get scotch bonnets at the local market here in Canada inspired me to grow my own. I have made this recipe with habaneros, but I prefer the scotch bonnet or the Jamaican Red Mushroom peppers. I use 10 scotch bonnet peppers for screaming hot jerk. Use 1-2 if your not used to hot foods. Advance Preparation - At least 4 hours for marinating the meat. Overnight preferred. Special Equipment - two cups hickory or oak chips or chunks, soaked for 1 hour in cold water to cover and drained. I use a gas grill and a small metal wood chip box that sits on a side burner. Note: Don't worry too much about chopping the veggies neatly or really fine. They'll all be thrown in a blender anyways.

Time 4h30m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 16

2 lbs pork tenderloin (you can use 3 to 4 tenderloins)
2 -16 scotch bonnet chilies, seeded (for hotter jerk, leave the seeds or placenta in)
2 bunches scallions, both white and green parts, trimmed and cut into 1-inch pieces (green onions)
1/2 medium sized onion, cut into 1 inch pieces
1 inch piece ginger, peeled fresh ginger, thinly sliced (1 inch, I usually just substitute 1 to 2 TBSP's of grated ginger if I don't have fresh)
3 cloves garlic, peeled
1 tablespoon fresh thyme or 2 tablespoons dried thyme
2 1/2 teaspoons ground allspice
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon freshly grated nutmeg (I used dried powdered)
1/4 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 cup distilled white vinegar
3 tablespoons soy sauce
3 tablespoons coarse salt (kosher or sea)
1 tablespoon light brown sugar
2 tablespoons vegetable oil, plus 1 to 2 TBSP's vegetable oil for basting

Steps:

  • Using the tip of a paring knife, make holes 1/4 inch deep all over each pork tenderloin. Place the tenderloins in a large nonreactive baking dish and set aside while you prepare the seasoning.
  • Combine the Scotch bonnets, scallions, onion, ginger, and garlic in a food processor and process until finely chopped. Add the thyme, allspice, pepper, nutmeg, cinnamon, vinegar, soy sauce, salt, brown sugar, and the 2 TBSP's of oil and process to a smooth puree. Or puree all of these ingredients in a blender.
  • Using a rubber spatula, spread the seasoning mixture over the tenderloins, stuffing it into the holes . Let the tenderloins marinate in the refrigerator, covered for a least 4 hours, or as long as overnight, turning the meat several times. The best way to marinate this is to place half the rub and the tenderloin in a ziploc bag.
  • Set up the grill for direct grilling. If using a gas grill, place the wood chips in a smoker box and preheat the grill to high; when the smoke appears, lower the heat to medium.
  • If using a charcoal grill, preheat it to medium.
  • When ready to cook, if using a charcoal grill, toss the wood chips on the coals. Brush and oil the grill grate. Arrange the pork tenderloins on the hot grate and grill, turning with tongs and brushing occasionally with oil, until nicely browned on both sides and cooked through, 8 - 10 minutes a side. When not turning the meat, keep the grill covered to hold in the smoke.
  • Alternatively, you can also use a spit and cook the tenderloins on a rotisserie. I bought a whole tenderloin and cut it into 2 lbs pieces. I then basted the pork with the extra marinade throughout cooking. Cook to an internal temperature of 130F - 135F or until desired done-ness and remove from grill. It will continue to raise in temperature to 140-145F as it rests under tinfoil.
  • Transfer the pork to a cutting board cover with tinfoil and let rest for 5 minutes. Cut it into thin diagonal slices and serve with your choice of sides. Makes FANTASTIC sandwiches the next day.

4 onions, minced
7 ounces dry white wine

Tips:

  • Use a sharp knife to score the pork tenderloin. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat and cook it evenly.
  • If you don't have time to marinate the pork for 24 hours, you can marinate it for a shorter amount of time. Just be sure to marinate it for at least 30 minutes.
  • When grilling the pork, cook it over indirect heat. This will help prevent the pork from drying out.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork. The pork is done cooking when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Jamaican jerk pork tenderloin is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for any occasion. The marinade is made with a blend of spices, herbs, and citrus fruits that give the pork a unique and unforgettable flavor. The pork is then grilled to perfection and served with a variety of sides. This dish is sure to please everyone at your table.
