Oven Baked Jerk Pork Recipes

JERK RIBS

Steps:

• Heat oven to 300. Place the scallions, onions, garlic and peppers into a food processor with a pinch of salt, and pulse to mince.
• Add the spices, sugar and soy sauce, and blend for 15 to 20 seconds. Add the rum, and pulse to combine. Add water to thin the marinade, approximately 1/4 cup. Refrigerate for 30 minutes or until ready to use. (Covered tightly, the marinade will keep for a few days in the refrigerator.)
• Slide the handle of a wooden spoon, or the edge of a butter knife, below the membrane on the back of each rack of ribs, and then use your fingers to grab it and pull it off. Season the ribs aggressively with salt and pepper.
• Place each rack of ribs on a large sheet of aluminum foil, and slather with the jerk marinade. Wrap the ribs tightly in the foil, and place on a sheet pan in the oven for 90 minutes.
• Remove the sheet pan from the oven, carefully unwrap the ribs and anoint again with the jerk marinade. Return the ribs, uncovered, to the oven, and continue roasting for an additional 90 minutes, or until the meat is crusty and has just begun to pull back from the bone. Remove ribs from oven, allow to rest 5 minutes, then slice into individual ribs and serve on a warmed platter.

OVEN BAKED JERK PORK

Steps:

• Cut up pork in medium pieces and set aside. (Do not remove excess fat as this helps to keep pork moist and prevent from drying out when baking).
• Blend all remaining ingredients in blender until smooth.
• Pour blended seasonings on pork and rub in evenly. Tightly cover and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight. If cooking less, you may half the pork and place remainder jerk seasoning in a jar in fridge for future use.
• Place in pressure cooker and cook about 15 minutes after hissing starts, if only doing 2 lbs., pressure for 10 minutes. Preheat oven to 400 degrees. Line baking sheet with foil and place pork pieces on baking tray. Bake about 20 minutes uncovered until brown.

JAMAICAN OVEN JERK PORK SHOULDER

Steps:

• Gather the ingredients.
• Place allspice, brown sugar, garlic, Scotch bonnet peppers, thyme, scallions, cinnamon, nutmeg, salt, pepper, and soy sauce in a food processor . Blend until smooth.
• With a sharp knife, carefully score the thick fat of the pork shoulder into a diamond pattern, trying to not cut into the meat.
• Press and massage a thick coating of the jerk sauce on the exterior of the pork so it is completely covered-gloves are encouraged for this process. Refrigerate any leftover sauce as long as it hasn't been in contact with the raw pork. It will keep for 4 to 5 weeks.
• Place the pork in a roasting pan and cover with a lid, foil, or plastic wrap. Refrigerate to marinate at least 24 hours or for up to two days.
• When ready to cook, let the pork sit at room temperature at least one hour or until it reaches room temperature. Then, preheat oven to 450 F.
• Line a roasting pan with heavy foil and insert a roasting rack.
• Roast pork uncovered for 30 minutes at this high heat, and then lower the temperature to 325 F.
• Roast for an additional 3 to 4 hours. If you notice the crust starting to over-blacken, cover again with aluminum foil. The pork is done when an instant-read thermometer (inserted in the thickest part of the meat away from fat) reads 180 to 190 F.
• Remove from the oven and rest for 30 minutes before carving.
• Serve with your favorites sides and enjoy!

OVEN-BAKED PORK BELLY SLICES

Steps:

• Preheat your oven to 400 degrees F. Line a large, rimmed baking sheet with high-heat-resistant parchment paper.
• Place the pork belly strips in the pan, in a single layer. Sprinkle them with the seasonings.
• Roast until browned and crispy, 30 minutes on the first side, and 20-30 more minutes on the second side. Drain the pan midway through baking, saving the rendered fat in a jar if you wish.

PERFECT BAKED JERK CHICKEN

Steps:

• Make the jerk rub by combining the salt, allspice, brown sugar, onion powder, garlic, nutmeg, pepper, ginger, cayenne pepper, cinnamon, and thyme. Toss the chicken pieces with the spice mixture, then cover, and marinate in the refrigerator 2 to 4 hours.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Pour the vegetable oil into a 9x13 inch baking dish.
• Place the chicken pieces skin-side up into the baking dish. Bake in the preheated oven for 1 hour 20 minutes, until no longer pink near the bone. Turn the oven on to broil, and cook until the skin crisps, 2 to 5 minutes.

JERK PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• Slash fat around chops at intervals.
• In a bowl, combine soy sauce, orange juice, oil, garlic, green onions, allspice, thyme, salt, pepper, ginger and cayenne.
• Rub mixture on both sides of chops.
• In small roasting pan, roast chops in oven preheated to 375°F(190°C) turning halfway through, until browned and juices run clear when pierced with a fork, about 20 minutes.
