Port Of San Francisco Sundae Recipes

THE COWBOY SUNDAE

Steps:

• For the pulled pork: Mix salt, sugar, black pepper, paprika, garlic powder, fennel seed, and chipotle in a bowl. Generously coat pork shoulder in the rub. Using applewood or hickory wood, maintain a temperature of 210 degrees F in your smoker. Add a water pan and arrange the pork directly on the grill and smoke, spritzing every hour, until pork reaches an internal temperature of 200 degrees F on a probe thermometer, roughly 12 hours. Carefully remove pork from smoker. Wearing barbecue gloves, pull the shoulder apart while the pork is still hot.
• For the fries: Prepare a seasoning salt by combining sea salt, rosemary and fennel seed. Cut potatoes with a wall-mounted fry cutter equipped with a 1/2 inch cutting screen. Deep fry in oil heated to 350 degrees F for 90 seconds. Cool to room temperature. Fry again at 350 degrees F for an additional 2 minutes or until golden brown. Transfer to a mixing bowl and add approximately 1 teaspoon of the seasoning salt.
• For the slaw: Mix green and purple cabbage together. Add cilantro. Mix mayo, tarragon vinegar, soy sauce and garlic in a bowl. Combine the cabbage mixture with the dressing and mix thoroughly.
• To assemble, place 1 pound of freshly fried and seasoned fries on a plate. Top with 1/2 pound of pulled pork. Place 1 cup of slaw on top of the pork. Drizzle the slaw with barbecue sauce and serve.

HOT BEEF SUNDAE

T.O. IS GREAT ON SUNDAE

Steps:

• Scoop ice cream into serving dishes. Drizzle with caramel sauce. Finish with a dollop of whipped cream.
• Add butter and sugar to saute pan, cook over medium heat until sugar is dissolved. Remove from heat, add rum. Return to grill and touch to flame to cook off alcohol. Remove from heat and cool slightly.

GOTHAM SUNDAE

Steps:

• After you are finished making the various sundae components, scoop ice cream into a very large oval dish or platter. Place a scoop of the pineapple and strawberry sauces on top of the ice cream with a dollop of the cocoa whipped cream. Drizzle on the butterscotch and chocolate syrups then stick 2 banana bonbons into the bowl.
• Trim the pineapple and slice into long quarters. Cut the flesh from the skin and slice each quarter in 3, lengthwise. Chop into little pieces, taking care to catch the juice. Combine the pineapple juice and rum and whisk in the cornstarch, creating a slurry. In a saucepan, melt the butter and brown sugar to bubbling. Add the pineapple and bring to a boil. Add the slurry and cook until bubbling and the cornstarch cannot be tasted.
• Slice the strawberries, and macerate half of them in the sugar and Grand Marnier until juicy. Before serving, stir in the remaining strawberries.
• Using whisk or electric beater, beat cream until almost thickened. Add cocoa powder and confectioners' sugar and continue beating until the ingredients are blended in and the whipped cream is firm.
• Combine the water, sugar, and butter in a large saucepan and cook over high heat until light amber, about 5 minutes. Stand back as far as possible and slowly drizzle the cream into the pan. It will bubble up and may splatter, so protect your hands with an oven mitt or towel. Add the rum and cook for 4 to 5 minutes, occasionally swirling the sauce around the pan, until thickened and a rich golden brown. Strain the sauce and stir in the sweetened condensed milk. Store in a sealed container. This sauce will keep for 2 weeks in the refrigerator or 3 months in the freezer.
• Finely chop the chocolate and put in a medium bowl. In a small saucepan, heat the coffee and corn syrup to a simmer. Pour the mixture over the chocolate and gently stir with a whisk until smooth and blended. Store in a sealed container. This syrup will keep for 4 weeks in the refrigerator or 6 months in the freezer.
• Melt chocolate in a completely dry bowl or in the top of a double boiler set over barely simmering water. Pierce each of the banana chunks with 2 toothpicks. Dunk first into the chocolate to coat, then into the peanuts or coconut. Set on waxed paper-lined cookie sheet and freeze for 2 hours or overnight. For maximum flavor, let sit at room temperature for 10 minutes before serving.

SANDY'S SUNDAE

• To assemble the sundae: Pour about 2 tablespoon each of the mocha chocolate and dulce de leche sauces in the bottom of a sundae glass. Top with the coffee ice cream, vanilla ice cream and finally the chocolate ice cream. Drizzle with more of the sauces. Top with the whipped cream, garnish with the chocolate-covered pretzels, brittle and just a little drizzle of each of the sauces. Top with the chocolate-covered cherry and sprinkle with the edible gold sprinkles or glitter. Serve immediately.
