Ginger Beer Pork Marinade Recipes

SWEET AND SPICY GINGER BEER PULLED PORK

Steps:

• Arrange sweet onions in the bottom of a slow cooker.
• Mix salt, brown sugar, paprika, black pepper, garlic powder, and red pepper flakes together in a bowl until seasonings are well mixed; rub all over pork roast. Place roast in the slow cooker, fat-side up. Brush any leftover seasonings mixture from the work surface into the slow cooker.
• Cook on Low for 1 hour. Pour ginger beer into slow cooker. Continue cooking until roast is tender and pulls apart easily with a fork, 9 to 11 hours.

GINGER BEER PORK MARINADE

Steps:

• Place pork in a glass baking dish and then pour ginger beer over pork.
• Sprinkle with salt (it will foam up).
• Sprinkle sliced pepper over the top of the pork and then sprinkle liberally with cumin.
• Cover and let marinade at least 1 hour (turn meat 1/2 way through).
• Remove pork from marinade and grill or pan fry, but be careful not to over cook.

GINGER BEER-MARINATED BABY BACK RIBS

Steps:

• Combine the ginger beer, soy sauce, Worcestershire, garlic, ginger and lime zest and juice in a large resealable plastic bag. Add the ribs and tightly seal the top. Put in a bowl or baking sheet and refrigerate for 2 hours and up to overnight.
• Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
• Remove the ribs from the marinade and reserve 3 cups. Pat the ribs dry and place each rack on a double layer of heavy-duty foil. Sprinkle each with 1/2 teaspoon salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Tightly wrap each rack in the foil and put on a baking sheet. Bake until the ribs are tender and falling off the bone, about 2 hours.
• Meanwhile, bring the reserved marinade to a boil in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat. Simmer until reduced to 1 cup, about 20 minutes. Strain the liquid and return it to the saucepan. Whisk in the ketchup and a generous amount of black pepper. Bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and simmer, whisking frequently, until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes.
• Line a second baking sheet with foil and turn the oven to broil. Carefully remove the racks from the foil and transfer to the prepared baking sheet. Brush the ribs all over with the barbecue sauce. Broil until the sauce is caramelized, dark and slightly sticky, 3 to 5 minutes. Serve with lime wedges and habanero hot sauce.

SOY-AND-GINGER-MARINATED PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Whisk together soy sauce, 3 tablespoons oil, the ginger, sugar, chopped scallion, and 1/2 teaspoon pepper.
• Arrange pork chops in a 9-by-13-inch nonreactive baking dish. Reserve 3 tablespoons marinade, and pour remainder over pork chops. Marinate, covered with plastic wrap, flipping chops halfway through, for 45 minutes.
• Heat remaining tablespoon oil in large skillet over medium-high heat. Remove pork chops from marinade, and sear for 3 1/2 to 4 minutes. Reduce heat to medium. Flip chops, and sear until just cooked through, 3 1/2 to 4 minutes more. Transfer chops to a board or platter. Let rest for 5 minutes.
• Add reserved 3 tablespoons marinade to skillet. Simmer over medium heat until thickened, about 30 seconds. Spoon sauce over chops. Garnish with thinly sliced scallion.

GINGER AND ROSEMARY PORK MARINADE

Steps:

• To make the marinade, stir together the lime juice, rosemary, ginger, black pepper, cayenne pepper, and garlic in a bowl.
• To use the marinade, pour the marinade into a resealable plastic bag, and add up to 1 1/2 pounds of pork. Seal, and marinate in the refrigerator at least 2 hours, up to 24 hours.
