Barbecue Pork

Barbecue Pork! Where should I start. Maybe from the edge….The crisp charred skin gives way to the succulent “green seasoning” infused meat, cooked down to the bone to give it that real Trini flavour. The barbecue sauce further smothers the meat with a burnt in, semi sweet, bay leafy, garlic flavour ……I could just taste it now; I’m salivating Hmm. And for some reason I’m looking at the picture…Delicious is an understatement…….

Barbecue Pork Indoors

With the heavy down pour of the rainy season these days in Trinidad, it is virtually impossible to do any outdoor cooking. And that goes for barbecue as well. But thankfully, barbecuing indoors is possible without all the smoke filling up the kitchen. Just like the barbecue chicken I did a few posts ago, we decided to do some pork this time around. The steps are the same and the sauce is the same. Shoulder cuts of pork were used, so the cooking time was much shorter than before.
So enjoy this barbecue pork recipe. I sure did 🙂

Barbecue Pork Recipe

2 pork shoulders seasoned and marinated overnight or at least 3 hours.
1 1/2 cups barbecue sauce, divided

Parboil the pork for about 5 minutes and save the stock.

Mix 1/2 cup of stock and 1/2 cup of barbecue sauce and
reduce for 1 1/2 minutes. Spread the barbecue sauce over the pork.

Place the pork in the oven on the grill side

Periodically turn the pork and baste with the remaining barbecue sauce.
Barbecue until well done. It took about 35 minutes to grill.

Well that’s it for another post and the end of another wonderful week. See you soon. Ah gone!
