PAULA DEEN "PIG ON A STICK" WITH DIPPING SAUCE



Paula Deen

This is a variation on Paula Deen's recipe. Her recipe calls for making your own jerk seasoning. I just use a store bought blend. This recipe was a huge hit at my party! People were waiting by the oven for the second batch. You can cut the recipe for the dipping sauce in half if you don't think you will use it all. I had a lot leftover. Many people ate the pork straight up with no sauce. Thanks Paula!

Yield 24 Skewers, 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 lbs pork tenderloin
1/2 cup light soy sauce
1/4 cup olive oil
2 garlic cloves, minced
1 tablespoon caribbean jerk seasoning
wooden skewer, soaked in water
1 tablespoon butter
1/2-1 jalapeno pepper, seeded and minced
1 teaspoon grated fresh ginger
1 (18 ounce) jar orange marmalade
2 tablespoons fresh lime juice
1/4 teaspoon salt

Steps:

  • Make Caribbean dipping sauce. In a medium saucepan, melt butter over medium-high heat. Add pepper and ginger, and cook 2 minutes, stirring frequently. Reduce heat to medium-low, and stir in marmalade, lime juice, and salt. Simmer 5 minutes, stirring frequently.
  • Cut tenderloin in half crosswise. Cut each half lengthwise into 4-inch thin strips. Place pork in a heavy duty re-sealable plastic bag.
  • In a small bowl, combine soy sauce, olive oil, garlic, and jerk seasoning. Pour over pork. Seal bag, and marinate pork in refrigerator, 1 hour.
  • Turn on broiler.
  • When ready to cook the pork, line a broiler pan with aluminum foil. Lightly grease rack and place on pan. Remove pork from bag; discard marinade.
  • Thread pork onto skewers in an "s" shape. Place skewers in a single layer on a prepared pan. Broil 5 inches from heat for 8 minutes, turning once. Serve warm with Caribbean Dipping Sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork: Select a pork shoulder or pork loin roast that is at least 2 inches thick. This will ensure that the meat is cooked evenly and stays moist.
  • Prepare the marinade: The marinade helps to flavor and tenderize the pork. Be sure to use a combination of acidic and oily ingredients, such as vinegar, lemon juice, olive oil, and herbs.
  • Skewer the pork: Cut the pork into 1-inch cubes and skewer them onto wooden skewers. Be sure to leave some space between the pieces of pork so that they can cook evenly.
  • Cook the pork: Grill or broil the pork skewers over medium heat until the meat is cooked through. The internal temperature of the pork should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Make the dipping sauce: While the pork is cooking, make the dipping sauce. This can be a simple sauce made with ketchup, mustard, and brown sugar, or a more complex sauce made with ingredients like soy sauce, hoisin sauce, and ginger.
  • Serve the pork skewers: Serve the pork skewers hot off the grill or broiler with the dipping sauce. You can also garnish the skewers with fresh herbs, such as cilantro or parsley.

Conclusion:

Paula Deen's Pig on a Stick with Dipping Sauce is a delicious and easy-to-make appetizer or main course. The pork is tender and flavorful, and the dipping sauce adds a tangy sweetness. This dish is sure to be a hit at your next party or gathering.
