Jims Woodford Reserve Bourbon Marinated French Rib Pork Chop Recipes

DYNAMITE BOURBON RIBS

Steps:

• Process brown sugar, bourbon, soy sauce, and garlic in a food processor or blender to mince garlic with other ingredients. Pour over ribs, and marinate for several hours in the refrigerator.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Place ribs on grate, and cover. Cook for 45 minutes to 1 hour depending on thickness of your ribs. When finished, the internal temperature of the ribs should be 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) when taken with a meat thermometer.

BOURBON-ANCHO MARINATED TOP ROUND WITH CAPE GOOSEBERRY RELISH

• Combine the oil, mustard, whiskey, soy, ancho chile, red wine vinegar, brown sugar, onions, garlic and black pepper in a medium bowl. Place the steak in a large baking dish, pour marinade over and turn to coat. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for 1 to 2 days.
• Preheat grill to high. Remove steak from marinade, season with salt and grill for 15 to 20 minutes or until medium rare. Remove from the grill and let rest 10 minutes before slicing. Serve with relish on side.
• Combine all ingredients in a medium bowl. Serve at room temperature.

FRENCH PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Combine carrots, mushrooms, tomatoes, and beans in the bottom of a 5-quart slow cooker.
• Season pork chops with salt, pepper, and 1 tablespoon of herbs de Provence. Place in slow cooker on top of vegetables.
• In a small bowl, combine potato soup, Dijon mustard, tomato paste, sherry, and 1 teaspoon of herbs de Provence. Pour over pork chops.
• Cover and cook on low setting for 4 to 6 hours.
• In a saute pan over medium-high heat, melt butter. When butter is melted and foam subsides, add bread crumbs and stir constantly until toasted. Serve pork chops and vegetables sprinkled with bread crumbs and parsley.

BOLICHE

Steps:

• Clean the meat by trimming excess fat. With a knife make an opening through the center of the meat. Place the meat in a large pot. To prepare marinade, mix garlic, oregano, cumin, bay leaf, bitter orange juice, cooking wine, salt and pepper. Add 3 tablespoons of the marinade to the opening inside the meat. In another container mix the stuffing: ham, carrot, bell peppers and chorizo then place the stuffing inside the meat. Add the rest of the marinade to the outside of the meat. For best results let the meat sit overnight or at least 3 hours, refrigerated.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F. In a large frying pan heat cooking oil and remove meat from marinade. Place meat in a hot frying pan, and sear the meat; browning it gives the meat flavor. Add the remaining marinade, cover and place in oven for approximately 3 hours. Let the meat cool before cutting it in slices. Combine the tomato sauce with the marinade that remained in the pan and put this mixture in a saucepan and simmer for 3 minutes. Pour over the sliced meat, and add the toppings and serve.

BOURBON-MARINATED PORK ROAST WITH COUNTRY HAM JUS

Steps:

• To marinate the pork roast, combine maple syrup, molasses, bourbon, chili sauce, and chili paste in a shallow dish and mix well. Brush the roast all over with the marinade and refrigerate it 8 hours or longer.
• Preheat 1 side of a grill to high heat.
• To cook, sear the roast all over on a hot grill. Once it browns, move the meat to a cooler spot. Lower the heat and continue to cook, covered, at a lower temperature, until it is done, about 11/2 to 2 hours, depending on its size -- the meat should register 150 to 155 degrees F in its thickest part.
• To serve, reheat the Country Ham Jus and divide it among serving plates. Place pork on plates and add a generous spoonful of Pawpaw Relish.
• For the country ham jus, combine the ham bones, 4 cups water, onion, celery, carrot, thyme, bay leaf, and pepper in a large stockpot. Simmer, uncovered, for 3 hours, or until liquid is reduced to 1 cup. Strain out the solids. Combine with demi-glace in pot and cook until reduced to 1 1/2 cups. Add salt, to taste. Refrigerate.
• Mix all the ingredients together.

PATACON PISAO

Steps:

• Boil beans in water to cover with bay leaf until tender; drain. Saute onions and garlic in olive oil until tender. Add cumin and oregano; cook for 2 minutes. Add tomato paste and cooked beans. Puree in a food processor.
• Fry cooked plantains in a skillet at 300 degrees F until tender. Place between 2 wet towels and roll to 1/4 inch thickness with a rolling pin to create a round "dough" of plantain. Return to pan and cook for 3 minutes on each side or until edges are crisp.
• To serve, spread puree over plantains. Scramble eggs in a non-stick pan, and place on top of plantains. Sprinkle with cheese.
