Time P1DT20m

Number Of Ingredients 12

4 pork neck steaks (about 200 g/ 7oz each 4 You can substitute the pork neck steaks, with pork chop or pork loin steaks. )
150 ml vegetable oil (5 oz)
2 large onions
3 garlic cloves
5 juniper berries
1 tbsp German mustard (or substitute with Dijon Mustard )
1 tsp dried thyme
1 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp smoked paprika powder
1 tsp cayenne pepper
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp black pepper

Steps:

  • Peel and slice the onions finely.
  • Peel the garlic cloves and crush them.
  • Crush the Juniper berries with a pestle or mortar or use another heavy item.
  • Assemble the remaining ingredients( mustard, thyme, oregano, paprika powder, cayenne pepper, salt and pepper) for the marinade and place them in a large shallow bowl. With a spoon stir the ingredients to achieve a smooth mass.
  • Add the pork steaks to the bowl and rub the marinade in. Store the marinated pork chops in an airtight container in the fridge. ( I like to keep them in a zip lock bag, to ensure the pork steaks are fully covered in the marinade.)
  • Leave to marinate for at least 24-48 hours. Remove the meat from the fridge at least 1 hour before grilling.
  • Oil your grill plate before making the fire.
  • With the back of a spoon remove the onions from the pork steaks. You can fry them in a pan on the stove or place them in some foil to cook over the bbq.
  • Grill each steak for about 10-15 minutes (exact cooking time depends on the thickness of the steak and the heat of the grill)
  • Serve with a side salad and white crusty bread. If you like you can place the cooked onions on top of the steaks.

Time 1h

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

4 pork blade steaks, about 3/4 inch thick
1 (8 1/4 ounce) can sliced pineapple (I like to use fresh pineapple, and then just use a can of pineapple juice for the marinade)

1/4 cup vegetable oil
3 tablespoons light corn syrup
1 teaspoon ground ginger

Steps:

  • Trim the excess fat from the pork steaks, and place them in a large shallow container.
  • Drain the pineapple (if using fresh, just sub a can of pineapple juice in the marinade), reserving juice or syrup. Set pineapple slices aside.
  • Combine pineapple juice/syrup, onion, soy sauce, oil, corn syrup, and ginger in a small saucepan, stirring well. Cook, uncovered, over medium heat for 10 minutes, stirring frequently. Pour over the pork steaks. Cover and refrigerate for at least 8 hours, turning steaks occasionally if possible.
  • Remove the steaks from the marinade, reserving marinade. Grill steaks over low to medium coals for 35 minutes or until the desired degree of doneness. Turn and baste occasionally with the marinade.
  • Grill the pineapple slices over medium coals for 1 minute on each side. Garnish the pork steaks with the pineapple slices.

SCHWEINEBRATEN-MARINATED PORK LOIN CHOPS



Schweinebraten-Marinated Pork Loin Chops image

*Please Note 3-5 Day Marinating Required* My DH was born in Wiesbaden, Germany, his family moved to the US when he was a small child. In the military, he was thrilled to be stationed at the Bitburg Air Base in Germany. Over the next 4 years, he grew to love these Marinated Pork Loin Chops, grilled and served on buttered hard rolls. When we vacationed in Germany, I finally got to try authentic Schweinebraten at Oktoberfest-YUM ! I now see what all the fuss was about. Please do not skimp on the marinating time, it is worth the wait. We have found countless variations of this recipe dependent on the region, but this is the version he was fond of.

Time P3DT10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 11

4 ounces paprika (If you use hot paprika, omit the black pepper. I like the smoked Spanish paprika, but sweet is ok to)
1 ounce salt
1 ounce black pepper
1 tablespoon onion powder
1 tablespoon garlic powder
1/4 cup fresh parsley, chopped
1 teaspoon dried sage
1 teaspoon dried rosemary
1 teaspoon dried thyme
1 large onion, sliced
8 boneless pork loin chops, 1/2 thick (If they are thicker, pound them between plastic wrap to 1/2 inch thick)

Steps:

  • Mix all spices and onion in a ziploc bag.
  • Generously oil both sides of meat, and place in bag.
  • Zip up bag, shake around to coat chops well. Remove excess air from bag, reseal and place in the refrigerator for 3-5 days.
  • Every day, gently knead bag to mix up spices a little.
  • After 3-5 days, remove chops from bag, discard bag containing spices, and onion.
  • Cook chops on the grill and serve on buttered hard rolls.
  • Things I have learned by making these:.
  • You can mix up the dry spice blend in advance, (Except the fresh parsley) and keep in a sealed jar. Typically I use it within a month.
  • The spice amounts may seem excessive, but they are correct.
  • Do not use chops thicker than 1/2 inch, or they are too tough.
  • I oil the chops up really good and even add a tablespoon or 2 to the bag to make it a little more liquidy (is that a word?).
  • When you remove them from the bag, they are messy.
  • The spices stick pretty thick to the chop. That's ok, grill them like this and if you like, you can scrap a little seasoning off after grilling.
  • When I use Hot Hungarian Paprika, DS likes to put ranch dressing on his sandwich.
  • Grilling does them more justice than broiling, and only takes about 10 minutes.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, pork steaks or pork chops are the best options. Look for cuts that are about 1 inch thick and have a good amount of marbling.
  • Make sure the pork is well-marinated: The marinade is what gives the pork its flavor, so it's important to let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight. The longer the pork marinates, the more flavorful it will be.
  • Cook the pork over medium heat: This will help to prevent the pork from overcooking and becoming dry. Cook the pork for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until it is cooked through.
  • Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork is cooked to the proper internal temperature: The internal temperature of the pork should be 145 degrees Fahrenheit when it is cooked through. This will help to ensure that the pork is safe to eat.
  • Let the pork rest before serving: This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.

Conclusion:

Marinated pork steaks are a delicious and easy-to-make dish that can be enjoyed by the whole family. By following these tips, you can make sure that your pork steaks are cooked to perfection every time. So next time you're looking for a quick and easy meal, give this recipe a try. You won't be disappointed!
