Coffee Rubbed Pork Loin Recipes

COFFEE-CRUSTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Heat oven to 425°F. In small bowl, mix coffee, brown sugar, 2 teaspoons of the salt, the pepper and garlic powder. Rub coffee mixture on all sides of pork, coating completely. Wrap tightly in plastic wrap; let stand at least 10 minutes or refrigerate up to 2 hours to absorb flavors.
• Spray shallow roasting pan or broiler pan with cooking spray. Place pork, fat side up, in pan. In medium bowl, toss carrots, garlic and onion with oil. Sprinkle with remaining 1 teaspoon salt. Arrange vegetables around pork in pan.
• Roast 40 to 50 minutes or until meat thermometer inserted into center of pork reads 145°F. Place pork on serving platter. Cover with foil and let stand 3 minutes before slicing. Stir adobo sauce into pan drippings, tossing with roasted vegetables. Spoon vegetables and sauce onto platter around pork.

COFFEE-RUBBED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH GREEN BEANS

Steps:

• Position an oven rack in the top third of the oven and preheat the broiler to high.
• Combine the coffee, brown sugar, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, 1 teaspoon black pepper, garlic powder, crushed red pepper, cumin and paprika in a small bowl and mix well. Drizzle the pork tenderloin with 2 tablespoons olive oil and evenly sprinkle the rub all over, patting to adhere. Let marinate at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• Toss the green beans in a large bowl with 3 tablespoons olive oil, 1 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper until well coated.
• Put the pork in the center of a large cast-iron skillet or heavy ovenproof skillet and scatter the green beans around it. (The pork should be directly on the pan, not on top of the green beans.) Broil for 10 to 12 minutes, flipping the pork and tossing the green beans halfway through cooking. When ready, an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center of the pork should register 145 degrees F and the green beans should be tender and lightly charred.
• Allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes before slicing across the grain. Serve with the green beans.

COFFEE-RUBBED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ESPRESSO-HONEY GLACE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F (200 degrees C).
• Combine brown sugar, espresso powder, salt, 2 teaspoons honey powder, garlic powder, smoked paprika, sweet paprika, black pepper, onion powder, cocoa powder, and ground chipotle in a bowl. Mix thoroughly and transfer 1 tablespoon of the rub into a small bowl.
• Place pork tenderloin on a work surface and trim off any silver skin. Pat dry with paper towels. Sprinkle the larger portion of coffee spice rub all over the tenderloin, patting it on with your fingertips. Drizzle 1 tablespoon olive oil on top and rub it in. Let rest at room temperature for 10 minutes.
• Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil and butter in a large, oven-proof skillet over medium-high heat. Add pork; cook until browned on all sides, about 8 minutes.
• Transfer skillet to the preheated oven and roast tenderloin until slightly pink in the center, about 15 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest park of the tenderloin should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from the oven, transfer to a serving platter, and let rest for 10 minutes.
• Heat the same skillet over medium heat. Add 1 tablespoon reserved coffee spice rub, water, demi-glace, Dijon mustard, and 1 teaspoon honey powder. Cook, stirring frequently, until sauce thickens, 3 to 4 minutes. Slice tenderloin into rounds and drizzle with the sauce.

COFFEE AND COLA PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 350 degrees F.
• Combine 1 cup of warm water with the vinegar, sugar and salt in a medium bowl, whisking until the sugar and salt are dissolved. Transfer to a large resealable gallon-sized plastic bag. Add 1 cup of cold water and the pork loin, seal, and refrigerate overnight.
• Pulse the coffee, brown sugar, peppercorns, star anise and cinnamon stick in a coffee or spice grinder until they become a fine powder. Remove the pork loin from the brine and pat dry with paper towels. Rub with the spice mix, transfer the pork to a baking sheet and set it aside at room temperature.
• In a large skillet melt the butter with the oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork loin and brown for 5 minutes, turning to brown all sides. Transfer the pork to a baking sheet and roast until the temperature reads 160 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour. Remove the roast from the oven, cover loosely with aluminum foil, and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
• In a medium saucepan over medium heat, cook the diced bacon until crispy. Remove any excess fat from the pan and add the demi-glace, red wine, cola, pineapple juice and pineapple tidbits. Bring back to a simmer over medium-high heat for 10 minutes, until the sauce has reduced by half. Slice the pork loin and serve with the sauce on the side.

COFFEE CHILI RUBBED TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a small bowl, combine oil, garlic, salt & RawSpiceBar's Dark Coffee & Chiles. Rub pork tenderloin with mixture, rolling the tenderloin until all of it is covered in the spices. Refrigerate and allow to marinate, at least 2-3 hours.
• When ready to cook, preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• Coat a cast iron skillet with the canola oil, and bring to medium-high heat.
• Place tenderloin on pan. Sear for about 3-4 minutes, and turn over. Sear again for 3-4 minutes. Continue to sear all over, and once you have made your final "flip" of the tenderloin, place skillet in oven on middle rack. Bake for 25-30 minutes, or until a thermometer inserted into the center reads 150 degrees. Tent with foil and allow to rest for 8-10 minutes, slice and serve. Enjoy!
