Wine Jerk RecipesWine Jerk Ribs: Marinate a slab of ribs with one bottle of Wine Jerk overnight in a Ziploc. Line a baking sheet with enough foil to create a “baking packet”. Line foil with onions sliced ½ inch thick, set ribs on top of onion, and top ribs with more sliced onion, seal the packet by rolling the edges, leaving a small opening. Pour the Wine Jerk marinade into the foil packet and seal tightly. Place on the grill over indirect heat for 2-3 hours until tender. You may also use a 325 degrees oven for 2 ½ to 3 hours. Remove from foil and finish on grill for approximately 10-15 minutes. (This also works well with a bison roast. Just be sure to flip the packet frequently.) Wine Jerk Island Fish Dinner: Marinate your choice of fish in a Ziploc with Wine Jerk for 30 minutes to 1 hour. Ahi Tuna, Halibut, Swordfish, Grouper, Salmon, and Orange Roughy all work well. Cook white rice according to directions, and add ½ teaspoon of saffron threads (turmeric is an excellent substitution), while cooking. Dice 1 peeled, seeded papaya, mango, kiwi, and 4 diced strawberries and toss together with the juice of one lime and 1 tablespoon of fresh chopped cilantro. Grill the fish, serve over rice, and garnish with fresh fruit salsa. Wine Jerk Asian Fish Dinner: Marinate your choice of fish in a Ziploc with Wine Jerk for 1-4 hours. Cook white rice. Create a salad of 1 sliced English cucumber, 6 chopped scallions, 2 tablespoons of rice vinegar, 1 tablespoon olive oil, 1 tablespoon fresh chopped cilantro and salt and fresh cracked pepper to taste. To prepare the fish, heat 1 teaspoon of sesame oil and 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium heat. Remove the fish from the baggie and press each side into a dish of sesame seeds before sautéing. Cook each side until desired doneness. Serve over rice with soy sauce. Amazing Wine Jerk Pork Roast: Choose a 3-4 pound roast (pork roast, pork shoulder, or boston butt all work well). Place the roast in an ovenproof pan, or crock pot, with 1 cup of Wine Jerk. Cover and cook at 300 degrees for 4 hours. About once every hour, turn the roast over and re-cover. Serve with a side of beans and rice, or shred and use for fajitas. |
