Pork Steak Recipe

BigGreenKev

Sliced some steaks off a shoulder last night and used this recipe.  Family scarfed them down too quick to get pictures but I'll for sure be making it again.  Direct at 400 until 145-150 degrees.  The fish sauce gives it a different take on pork.

• 4 pork shoulder steaks , (aka pork butt or blade steaks) sliced 1/2"-3/4" thick
• 1/4 cup (56 ml) oil
• 2 Tablespoons (30 ml) fish sauce (or soy sauce or Worcestershire sauce)
• 4 cloves garlic , minced or crushed
• 1 Tablespoon (15 ml) brown sugar
• 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) onion powder or 1 minced shallot
• 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) kosher salt
• 1/2 teaspoon (2.5 ml) fresh cracked black pepper

Interested to try this , always just used BBQ sauce .  Not familiar with fish sauce, not even sure I could find that here.  Do u recommend Soy sauce or worchestershire ?

The OP’s post contains a link to buy it on Amazon.  It’s not too expensive.  Probably worth just trying.

@lentsboy007 , a good fish sauce is a great staple to have , will add that Umami to your cooks, little goes a long way

I’ll ask again since other commenters didn’t seem to see what my question actually was, if I don’t do the fish sauce do u recommend soy sauce or Worcestershire?

I was leaning that way as well.  Soy sauce seems to over power with salt, I was never a huge fan

For sure , Soy is one dimensional while Worcestershire is more complex

 You should try fish sauce. It was the op intention that you use fish sauce

fish sauce is in most large markets now, even at walmarts.  worcestershire sauce is a fish sauce but it has other flavors added. if you have never used fish sauce, dont open the bottle and take a smell, ok, now you will

I am glad to hear you found some between yesterday at 3:42 and today at 8:23.  Was it easy to find?  I've never bought it. 

Sorry to hear you had a reaction to it so quickly.  

Did you just taste the fish sauce, or did you make the pork steak?

I am no longer allowed to make Pad Thai with fish sauce in the house.

That is one fancy pork steak. If I tried that my family would go WTF, where's the Maul's or Sweet Baby Ray's.

I like the fish sauce over the other two options.  Fish sauce is a nice change from the other two.  Gives it more of a Vietnamese aspect in my lowly opinion.

OH, Sorry.  I was afraid people were pushing you to try something you were allergic to.

This^^^ sometimes I use it in place of salt.  Adds the saltiness with the umami kicker.
