Molasses And Chile Glazed Pork Medallions With Smoky Corn Red Pepper Relish Recipes

CHILI-GLAZED PORK RIBS

Steps:

• Make shallow cuts between the ribs on the bone side with a sharp knife, piercing just the membrane.
• Mix 1 tablespoon salt, the brown sugar, garlic, thyme, chili powder, 1/4 teaspoon black pepper and the cayenne in a bowl. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the ribs. Place the ribs on a rack in a roasting pan, loosely cover and refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight.
• Meanwhile, combine the cider, ketchup, mustard and Worcestershire sauce in a saucepan over medium heat and simmer until reduced to about 2 cups, about 30 minutes. Cover and set aside.
• Preheat a grill to low heat on one side. Cook the ribs bone-side down on the cooler side of the grill, covered, until tender, about 2 hours 30 minutes. (If using a charcoal grill, add more charcoal as needed to maintain the temperature.) Continue to cook, uncovering every 10 minutes to baste with the sauce, until the ribs are glazed, about 40 more minutes. Remove from the grill and cut into pieces.

MOLASSES- AND CHILE-GLAZED PORK MEDALLIONS WITH SMOKY CORN-RED PEPPER RELISH

Steps:

• Preheat a grill: If using a charcoal grill, make a fire in your grill. When the charcoals are completely covered in gray ash, hold your hand about 5 inches above the grill grid; count how many seconds you can comfortably leave it there. When you can hold it there for 2 to 3 seconds, you have medium-high heat and are ready to grill. If you are using a gas grill, heat the grill for 15 minutes with the lid closed. Before beginning to cook, reduce the temperature by turning the knobs to medium-high.
• In a small bowl, mix together molasses, butter, crushed red pepper flakes, and 1 teaspoon black pepper until well combined; set glaze aside.
• Pat pork dry with paper towels and coat with olive oil; season with salt and pepper. Transfer pork to grill, placing cutlets directly over heat. Cook, turning once, about 5 minutes per side. Using about half of the glaze, brush cutlets with during the last 30 seconds of cooking, reserving any remaining glaze for serving.
• Transfer cutlets to a serving platter and loosely cover; let stand 5 minutes before serving with Smoky Corn-Red Pepper Relish and reserved glaze.

MOLASSES-GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Whisk together the molasses, vinegar, honey, brown sugar, red pepper flakes, ginger, garlic, salt, and pepper until combined. Remove 1 cup of this mixture to use for basting later. Pour the remaining marinade into a resealable plastic bag, and add the pork tenderloin. Coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes to overnight.
• Preheat an outdoor grill for medium heat, and lightly oil grate.
• Remove the pork tenderloin from marinade, and shake off excess. Discard remaining marinade. Cook on preheated grill until no longer pink in the center, about 20 minutes, basting occasionally with the 1 cup of reserved marinade.

Brush the pork liberally with the Molasses Glaze and continue roasting until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees F. Remove the roast to a platter, brush with more of the glaze and let rest 15 minutes.
• Remove all but 2 tablespoons of the fat from the pan and place on top of the stove over medium heat. Add the onions, carrots, celery, and garlic and cook until soft, about 5 to 7 minutes.
