Bourbon Marinated Pork Roast With Country Ham Jus Recipes

JIM'S WOODFORD RESERVE BOURBON MARINATED FRENCH RIB PORK CHOP

Steps:

• For relish, combine lime juice, honey, cilantro, and cumin in a bowl. Dice tomato, pawpaw, mango, roasted pepper and onion to 1/4-inch squares. Add diced vegetable to lime juice mixture and toss. Season, to taste, with kosher or sea salt, and let stand at least 30 minutes and up to overnight in the refrigerator, tightly covered.
• Preheat a grill to medium heat.
• For the marinade, combine all ingredients and mix well. Grill pork chops to medium, about 10 minutes per side, brushing with marinade until juice runs clear when pressed or when an instant-read thermometer reads 150 degrees F. Slice plantains 1/8-inch thick. Fry in hot oil until lightly browned. Remove and drain on paper towels.
• Sauce each plate with 1/4 cup hot country ham jus. Garnish with a generous soup spoonful of relish and crown with 2 slices fried plantains.
• Combine ham bone and stock in a large pot and bring to a simmer. Simmer until reduced to 1 cup. Strain.

PORK TENDERLOIN IN BOURBON

Steps:

• Mix together soy sauce, bourbon, brown sugar, and garlic. Pour over pork, cover, and refrigerate at least 2 hours, turning occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C). Remove pork from marinade, and place on rack of shallow roasting pan.
• Bake for 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer registers 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

BOURBON PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Place the pork roast fat side up in a roaster.
• Rub the roast with lemon juice.
• Mix together the brown sugar, flour, paprika and salt.
• Rub this mixture all over the roast.
• Generously sprinkle with ground black pepper.
• Combine water, 1/8 cup sherry, and 1/8 cup bourbon, and pour over the roast.
• Place a bay leaf in the pan and sprinkle the roast with parsley.
• Baste heavily and often.
• After 1 1/4 hours, pour the remaining bourbon over the roast, and continue to baste until you are ready to serve roast.
• Bake approximately 2 1/2 hours or 45 minutes per pound.

DOUBLE MUSTARD CRUSTED PORK ROAST WITH JUS

Steps:

• In a food processor, combine the mustards, soy sauce, pepper, thyme and garlic. Process until smooth. Rub all over the pork roast, loosely cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate at least 6 hours. Remove from refrigerator and allow to rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking.
• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. In a roasting pan, add the fennel, onions and carrots. Drizzle with olive oil and season generously with salt and freshly cracked pepper, to taste. Put the bread crumbs on a plate wide enough to fit the loin. Carefully roll the pork in the crumbs to form a nice crust. Put the pork on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan and bake until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 2 to 2 1/2 hours.
• Remove the pork from the oven to a cutting board and let rest. Put the roasting pan over 2 burners on high heat. Add the vermouth and chicken stock and let reduce by half. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Whisk in the butter and strain into a small pitcher or bowl.
• Remove the pork from the bone and slice into serving portions. Arrange on a serving platter and drizzle with the jus.
