Ingredients
Pork Steaks
- 4 pork shoulder steaks about ¾ inch thick, bone-in or boneless*
- ½ tablespoon olive oil only if not using a marinade**
- salt and pepper to taste, but season liberally**
PORK STEAK MARINADE
- ⅓ cup olive oil
- ¼ cup apple cider vinegar
- 1 shallot sliced thin
- 1 ½ tablespoon dark brown sugar
- 2 tablespoon Dijon mustard
- 6-7 sprigs thyme or ½ tablespoon dried
- 1 tablespoon coarse salt
- 1 teaspoon pepper
Instructions
- Mix the marinade ingredients in a non-reactive container or a freezer bag. Place the pork steaks inside and make sure they are covered with marinade. Refrigerate covered, from 4 hours to overnight.
- Bring the marinated steaks to room temperature and preheat oven to 350 F. Line a baking sheet with parchment paper (optional, for easier clean up).
- Scrape the marinade from the pork steaks and season with salt and pepper. Place on the baking sheet and bake for 20 minutes.
- Flip the steaks over and continue baking to get the other side nicely browned OR broil the other side but watch closely. About 5-8 minute more minutes, depending on how thick the steaks are. Internal temperature should be at least 145 F, but up to 180 F is fine, pork shoulder steaks do not dry out easily.
- Loosely tent with foil and rest for 5 minutes before serving.
Notes
*About 2.5 to 3 lbs of meat unless you are using small, boneless cuts.
**For pork steak seasoning tips in the event that you do not have time to marinate see the body of the post. You will only need the oil to lightly brush the steaks if you did not make a marinade.
