Korean Inspired Pork Tenderloin with Cabbage, Garlic and Pho Broth, Veggies and Noodles

August 6, 2018 By Dr. T

Made this dish the other night inspired by a great selection of Korean-inspired marinades at our local grocery store, a fresh cabbage, and a charcoal grill.

As torrents of rain came pouring down on our little corner of Grill Nation, we feasted on hot pho and charcoal- grilled pork tenderloin, cabbage and garlic. In fact, we pulled the whole thing in and off the grill just as the first drops started to fall…

So, yeah. It was going to be a good night.

Pork and Cabbage Just Off the Grill

Used a Korean-inspired marinade for the pork, and charcoal-grilled it on the Weber Kettle Grill (~ 45 minutes). To this we added wedges of cabbage drizzled with a bit of olive oil.

While the meat was cooking, we made a tasty soup. Our aim was to go heavy on the flavour, veggies and noodles, and relatively light on the liquid, so we could enjoy it more like a sauce  for the pork and cabbage than in its own a bowl. Spotted a tasty prepared pho broth at the store, so we used that and kicked it up with a  single Thai chili pepper adding a noticeable hit of heat. Veggies and noodles went in right at the end to keep things bright and crisp.



Pork Platter Perfection

Giving my self major bonus points for presentation here. Just look at this awesome platter. Sliced up the tenderloins (4 in total) fairly thick, fanned them out on the board and garnished with cilantro and lime wedges. Beautifully charred cabbage also went on the board to amp up the visual feast.

Served the whole thing family style. Everyone helped themselves, first piling on some pork with cabbage wedge on their plates, then ladling broth, noodles and veggies on top to make a sort of ‘undone saucy soup’ you can eat with a fork. A squeeze of lime over top brought it all together.

Grill-perfect for a cool, rainy summer night.

Cedar Planked Salmon on Weber Charcoal Kettle Grill

June 30, 2018 By Dr. T

1 Kilo of Canadian Salmon

Saw this B.C. beauty being unloaded at the fish market and got inspired.  When asked “How much of it do you want?”, just had to respond: “All of it.”

Soaked a cedar plank for a couple of hours, then fired up our Weber Charcoal Kettle Grill. Used one Weber Rapidfire Chimney – full of coals (handy, that thing). Set up the salmon to cook over indirect heat –  top vent closed ~75%-  for about ~20/25 minutes.

We used Humble and Frank Salmon Finishing Rub (found it at the local Safeway – nice!) to season it up.

Looked and tasted spectacular – nothing like fish on the charcoal grill.
