Method

Pork Loin Preparation

  1. 1

    Season the Pork Loin

    In a small bowl, mix together smoked paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture all over the pork loin, ensuring it is evenly coated.

  2. 2

    Cook the Pork Loin

    Heat olive oil in a skillet over medium-high heat. Add the seasoned pork loin and sear it for about 4-5 minutes on each side until browned. Reduce heat to low, cover, and cook for another 15-20 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  3. 3

    Slice the Pork Loin

    Once cooked, remove the pork loin from the skillet and let it rest for 5 minutes. Thinly slice the pork loin against the grain.

Texas Toast Preparation

  1. 4

    Prepare the Texas Toast

    While the pork loin is resting, spread butter on one side of each slice of Texas Toast.

  2. 5

    Toast the Bread

    In the same skillet used for the pork, place the buttered side of the Texas Toast down into the skillet. Cook over medium heat for about 2-3 minutes or until golden brown. Flip and toast the other side for another 2-3 minutes.

Assembly

  1. 6

    Assemble the El Paso Oinker

    On each slice of toasted Texas Toast, layer the thinly sliced smoked pork loin. Top with pickles, sliced onions, and sliced jalapeños as desired.

  2. 7

    Serve

    Serve immediately while warm, and enjoy your El Paso Oinker!
