Grilled Pork With Charred Corn Slaw Recipes

MEXICAN STREET CORN SLAW

Steps:

• Prep the corn and dressing: Heat the olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the corn and jalapeños and cook until they begin to char, 5-7 minutes. Mix the dressing ingredients together in a small bowl.
• Finish the slaw: Add all the slaw ingredients to a large bowl with the corn mixture, and dressing. Toss well and serve.

BLACK-AND-TAN PORK WITH SPICY ALE SLAW

Steps:

• Prepare the pork: Combine the ale, five-spice powder, cayenne and salt and black pepper to taste in a large resealable plastic bag. Reserve 1/4 cup marinade for the slaw. Add the pork to the bag and mix well. Refrigerate 2 to 6 hours.
• Make the glaze: Heat the olive oil in a saucepan over medium heat. Add the onion and garlic and cook until golden, about 2 minutes. Add 1 tablespoon each stout and brown sugar and cook 4 minutes. Add all but 2 tablespoons of the remaining stout, the honey, the remaining 3/4 cup plus 3 tablespoons brown sugar and the ginger. Bring to a boil over medium-high heat, stirring, then lower the heat to medium and simmer until reduced by half, 15 to 20 minutes. Whisk the remaining 2 tablespoons stout and the cornstarch in a bowl; slowly stir into the glaze and boil 2 minutes. Remove from the heat and let cool.
• Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Remove the pork from the marinade and transfer to a baking dish. Bake until a thermometer inserted into the center registers 160 degrees F, 35 to 45 minutes. Transfer to a cutting board and let rest 5 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the slaw: Whisk the soy sauce, honey, garlic and ginger in a large bowl. Whisk in the reserved 1/4 cup marinade. Add the cabbage, bell peppers, carrots and onion and toss. Refrigerate until ready to serve, at least 30 minutes.
• Slice the pork and serve with the slaw. Drizzle both the pork and slaw with the glaze.

CHIPOTLE-GRILLED PORK SHOULDER STEAKS WITH CORN SALSA

Steps:

• Mix chile powder, oregano, garlic powder, allspice, and 2 tsp. kosher salt in a small bowl. Rub spice mixture all over pork steaks. Let sit at room temperature at least 15 minutes.
• Prepare a grill for medium heat; oil grate. Grill pork and corn, turning occasionally, until pork is deeply charred and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F for medium, and the corn is lightly charred all over, 7-9 minutes. Transfer pork to a cutting board and let rest 10 minutes.
• Let corn cool slightly. Slice kernels off cobs into a large bowl. Add onion, season with 3/4 tsp. kosher salt, and stir to combine. Stir in cilantro, cheese, pumpkin seeds, and lime juice; taste salsa and season with more kosher salt if needed.
• Transfer pork to a platter. Drizzle any accumulated juices left on cutting board over; sprinkle with sea salt. Top with corn salsa and serve with lime wedges alongside.
• Do Ahead: Pork can be seasoned 1 day ahead. Cover and chill. Let sit at room temperature 15 minutes before grilling.

GRILLED CORN SLAW

Steps:

• Heat a grill pan over medium heat.
• Grill the corn on the hot grill pan, turning periodically, until cooked and grill marks are all around the corn. Set aside to cool.
• In a large bowl, toss the cabbage with the lime juice; season with salt and pepper, to taste, and set aside.
• Once the corn has cooled, cut the kernels off the cob and add it to the bowl with the cabbage. Taste for seasoning and adjust, if necessary. Add the crumbled queso fresco and cilantro leaves and stir to combine. Serve as a side dish or use as a taco topping.

PORK AND CORN TACOS WITH CILANTRO-LIME CREMA

Steps:

• Prepare pickled vegetables: zest and juice the lime. Set zest aside for cilantro-lime crema. Combine lime juice with shallots, jalapeno, sugar, and salt in a small bowl; set aside. Stir occasionally while preparing the rest of the meal.
• Prepare cilantro-lime crema: combine reserved lime zest with sour cream, lime juice, cilantro, and ancho chili powder in a small bowl. Add water, a little at a time, until crema has a pourable consistency. Refrigerate until needed.
• Prepare charred corn: place frozen corn in a microwave-safe bowl; microwave on high until thawed, 2 to 3 minutes. Spread corn between two paper towels and blot to dry.
• Heat a large dry pan over medium-high heat. Spread corn evenly in the pan and roast until browned on the bottom, about 3 minutes. Stir and continue to cook until charred on all sides, 5 to 7 minutes more. Transfer to a serving bowl.
• Prepare pork tacos: combine butter and olive oil in the same pan over medium-high heat until butter has melted. Cook and stir pork in the hot pan until browned and crumbly, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in 4 teaspoons chile powder, taco seasoning, garlic powder, cumin, bouillon powder, salt, and pepper. Add water and cook until liquid has reduced and mixture has thickened, 2 to 3 minutes. Taste and adjust spices as needed.
• While the liquid is reducing, drain the pickling juice from the vegetables and pour it into the corn. Stir in 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 teaspoon chile powder, salt, and pepper.
• Fill warm tortillas with pork and corn. Top with pickled vegetables and drizzle with crema.

GRILLED CORN AND RED CABBAGE SLAW
