Will provide my Trini recipe. Cubed pork meat half inch size. Cut approximately 4 garlic pegs in half. I prefer three sprigs of rosemary ( small leaf/ Portuguese thyme is the other option). Soak in vinegar for 14 days.

Give me any kinda pork dish any day! There's no better meat IMO.
But you see garlic pork? Not me and that.
And I've had it from a few different cooks who all said theirs is the best.
I realize I just don't like the taste. The strong vinegar flavour is just too overpowering. And I don't dislike vinegar at all.
I figure its an acquired taste.

do you fry it after or just eat it from pickle?

 
conman 2023-12-14 17:13:01 

In reply to VIX

same with me
thats why i want to try and make it with a little more balance
vinegar in pork is good, garlic with pork is good, but the balance together is never done right for my taste

Fry. Has a pungent aroma, better done outdoors.

 
Overthrow 2023-12-14 17:34:18 

Also recommend drying the meat in a paper towel prior to frying.
Add your aromatics to the hot oil prior to frying the meat. Onions, hot peppers, green onions etc.

Too garlicky can only mean two things, err, 3.
Too much garlic
Minced to fine (pulverized)
Marinated too long. If the recipe calls for 'frying' (suspect men mean sautéing)
then by all means remove the garlic before placing meat in hot oil. If sauteing it is ok to leave the garlic

The first time I saw deep-fried pork chop, I almost vomited.
Only my mom would have enjoyed that

Bezerk was correct, should have read sautee.
Deep fried pork chops are amazing. Chinese style deep fried pork is exceptional.

So much grease and you have to kill that pig a second time.
I cannot stand overcooked meats, I would never order a Pork chop in a restaurant, I enjoyed my German brother Wild Boor, a flavourful and tasty dish.

 
Brerzerk 2023-12-15 00:29:37 

The difference is The Guyneez/Trini Garlic pork if fried with the minced garlic on it will be very acidic and because of that the garlic will burn fast, fast.
(I don't eat pork nor ever tasted that dish but unnastan food)

All pork lovers would ask for seconds, thirds and fourths.

My sister closed her eyes and ate it all, I teased her saying she had to live in England.
It had too much grease.
I am also not a lover jerk, I enjoy curry goat, but dislike any of my other meats with curry powder added unless I am having a Roti dish, as a snack.

conman 2023-12-15 15:23:59 

so trini garlic pork dont use mince garlic?

leaving the garlic more whole would cut on the strong flavor, whats the minimum time go get flavor without it being too mild?

 
Overthrow 2023-12-15 16:11:33 

In reply to conman

Recommend 10 days. Vinegar and rosemary has to be infused in the meat.

I spent all my working life with some very good chefs, managed one of the ten best Restaurants in North America, had the third-best wine list in Canada.
Food tasting has always been my forte.
You saw German and Knowing people, Perogies may be the only product you know.
Here is my German brother's restaurant food, wine list and cocktail menus, let see if you know any of the dishes.

Wait, you deal in restaurant management yet you're grossed out by something as basic and ubiquitous as fried pork?

It was the size of the chop, the preparation and the fat t.
I am used to having fat taken off, searing meat, and then putting it in the oven, but not deep fried.
I can see why so many whales are: walking around in the region.big grin

Conman, how did your garlic pork work out this year?
