Chef Johns Garlic Studded Roast Pork Recipes

Steps:

• Cut the tenderloin in half and set the thinner end to the side. Cut the thicker end in half lengthwise. You should have 3 mostly equal pieces.
• Combine onion, thyme, vinegar, garlic, habanero peppers, ginger, soy sauce, vegetable oil, brown sugar, allspice, black pepper, cayenne pepper, nutmeg, and cinnamon in a blender. Puree until smooth, stopping to scrape down sides.
• Pour Jerk marinade into a resealable plastic bag. Add pork tenderloin pieces, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 4 to 6 hours.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for high heat, and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill pork, moving if necessary to avoid overcooking the thin parts of the meat, until dark grill marks appear and they lift easily from the grill, 6 to 7 minutes each side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Make small slits all over in the roast then stuff whole or half garlic cloves into each slit.
• Rub the roast with olive oil.
• In a small bowl combine the sage with salt, pepper, garlic powder and cayenne pepper; rub the roast all over with the spice mixture.
• Place the roast in a roasting pan, then let sit out on the counter for a few hours.
• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F.
• Set oven rack to middle position.
• Roast for about 3 hours or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F (the temperature will rise more after removing from the oven).
• For the glaze: while the roast is cooking in a small saucepan combine the sugar with cornstarch, vinegar, water and soy sauce; bring to a simmer over medium heat stirring occasionally.
• Cook until bubbly and thickened.
• Brush the roast 3-4 times during cooking.
• The last 30 minutes of cooking pour the remaining glaze over the roast.
• Allow the roast to sit for about 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
• Cut about 6 holes per side into pork roast with a sharp knife and insert garlic clove halves into the holes. Rub roast with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season all sides of roast with kosher salt and a generous amount of black pepper, Italian seasoning, rosemary, and cayenne pepper. Place into a roasting pan.
• Roast in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Turn off the oven with roast inside and leave it to rest for 1 hour. Refrigerate meat overnight.
• Cut cold pork into 1/2-inch-thick slices. If any garlic appears on the cut surface of the meat, pick it out so it doesn't burn. Season slices with salt.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat and sear pork slices in the hot oil until browned and crusty, about 10 minutes per side.
• Toss lettuce with tomatoes in a bowl and drizzle with red wine vinegar; toss again to coat.
• Heat beans in a saucepan over low heat. Layer about 1/3 cup white beans into a large, shallow soup plate; top beans with a slice of pork shoulder and about 1/4 cup lettuce mixture.
