How to Make Apple Brandy Grilled Pork Loin By Emeril
- In a large bowl, whisk together apple juice, apple brandy, brown sugar, soy sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, and your choice of seasoning (McCormick Grill seasoning for steak or Emeril's Essence).
- Place the pork loin in a resealable bag or shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it's fully coated. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 12 hours, or preferably overnight.
- Prepare your grill for medium-high heat (approximately 350-400°F). If using a charcoal grill, ensure the coals are evenly distributed.
- Remove the pork loin from the marinade and discard the marinade.
- Place the pork loin on the preheated grill. Grill for approximately 20 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F.
- Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. Allow the pork to rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving.
- Slice thinly for serving and enjoy! Leftovers make fantastic sandwiches.
Chef's Tip for Extra Flavor
Want to unlock deeper, more complex flavors? Try toasting your whole spices before grinding them, or blooming ground spices in a little warm oil to enhance their aroma. Deglazing your pan with a bit of stock, wine, or even water after browning ingredients can capture those tasty caramelized bits, adding richness to your dish.
