Pork Rib Eye
Shrimp Infused Barbeque Sauce
Apple Wood Bacon and Caramelized Onions
Roasted Garlic Mashed Potato
Method
Preparing the Pork Rib Eye
Seasoning
Pat the bone-in pork rib eye dry with paper towels. Season generously with salt and black pepper on both sides.
Searing
In a large skillet, heat olive oil over medium-high heat. Sear the pork rib eye for 4-5 minutes on each side until it develops a golden brown crust. Remove from skillet and set aside.
Making Shrimp Infused Barbeque Sauce
Infusing Shrimp Shells
In a saucepan, add shrimp shells and 1 cup of water. Simmer for 15 minutes to extract flavors. Strain and discard shells.
Making the Sauce
In the same saucepan, combine the strained shrimp-infused water, ketchup, brown sugar, apple cider vinegar, Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, onion powder, smoked paprika, salt, and black pepper. Stir and simmer on low heat for 10-15 minutes until thickened.
Caramelizing Onions and Cooking Bacon
Cooking Bacon
In a skillet, cook the apple wood bacon over medium heat until crispy. Remove and drain on paper towels.
Preparing Roasted Garlic Mashed Potato
Roasting Garlic
Preheat the oven to 400°F (200°C). Wrap garlic cloves in foil and roast for 30 minutes until soft.
Cooking Potatoes
Peel and chop potatoes, then boil them in salted water for 15-20 minutes until tender. Drain.
Mashing
In a mixing bowl, combine boiled potatoes, roasted garlic (squeezed out of their skins), butter, heavy cream, salt, and black pepper. Mash until creamy and well combined.
Bringing it All Together
Final Cooking

Serving
Serve the pork rib eye topped with caramelized onions and crumbled bacon alongside the roasted garlic mashed potatoes.
