Ingredients
- 2 lbs pork loin chops, cut roughly 1 inch thick
- 2 onions, sliced
- ¼ c canola oil or vegetable oil
- 2 tsp prepared mustard
- 2 garlic cloves, minced
- 4 juniper berries, whole
- 1 tsp paprika
- ½ tsp ground black pepper
- ½ tsp oregano
- ½ tsp thyme
- ¼ tsp cayenne powder
- ½ tsp salt (for grilling)
Instructions
- Layer the pork chops and sliced onions in a flat container with a lid.
- In a small bowl, mix the oil, mustard, garlic, juniper berries, and other spices (except the salt). Pour the seasoned oil over the meat and onions and mix to coat. Cover the meat and place it in the refrigerator for at least 24 hours, up to 3 days.
- Remove meat from the refrigerator 30 minutes before grilling. Start your schwenker fire or preheat your grill to a medium high heat, 400F. (You should be able to hold your hand a few inches from the cooking grate for 4-6 seconds.)
- Place the marinated meat on the grill and salt it, lightly. Place the onions from the marinade into a foil packet and place on the grill, or sauté them in a sauté pan over medium high heat until soft and lightly golden, 3-4 minutes.
- Grill the pork steaks for 8-10 minutes a side.
- Serve the schwenkbraten with potato salad, grilled veggies and a roll. Don’t forget the German beer or Riesling wine!
