I made some pickled pork today to use in red beans and rice.
This is an authentic Louisiana recipe I got years ago from Frugal Gourmet. It
really adds flavor to the beans along with smoked sausage. To me the red beans
and rice are not as good without the pickled pork.
Ingredients
Ready for the fridge
Recipe:
Pickled Pork
2 lbs. boneless pork butt cut in 2” cubes
½
cup mustard seed (2 or 3 TBS. are enough)
1 TBS celery seeds
2 TBS tobasco
1 qt white vinegar
1 bay leaf
1 TBS kosher salt
12 pepper corns
6 cloves garlic, cracked
1 pinch of pink salt (optional)
Combine all the ingredients except the pork in a stainless
steel pan & boil for 3 min. Cool & place in a refrigerator container (
plastic, glass, or stainless ) add pork. Stir to remove the bubbles. Cover
& refrigerate for 3 days. Every since I had red beans & rice with the
pickled pork it’s not as good without the pork! I have never tried the pink
salt in the pickled pork but plan to soon.
Note: I have used country style ribs, they cut up just
right.
