Meats

Seasonings and Marinade

Creamy Horseradish Sauce

Method

Preparation of Meats

  1. 1

    Prepare the pork loin

    Rub the bone-in pork loin with olive oil, salt, black pepper, smoked paprika, garlic powder, and onion powder. Make sure to coat it evenly. Let it marinate for at least 1 hour, or preferably overnight in the refrigerator.

  2. 2

    Prepare the pork belly

    Score the skin of the pork belly in a criss-cross pattern to help it render and become crispy. Rub with olive oil, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.

  3. 3

    Prepare the bauernwurst

    Prick the bauernwurst sausages with a fork to prevent bursting during cooking. Set aside.

Cooking the Meats

  1. 4

    Smoke the pork loin

    Preheat your smoker to 225°F (107°C). Place the pork loin in the smoker and smoke for about 2.5 to 3 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C). Let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing.

  2. 5

    Grill the pork belly

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. Place the pork belly on the grill, skin side down. Grill for about 5-7 minutes per side, or until the skin is crispy and the meat is cooked through. Remove from grill and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing.

  3. 6

    Cook the bauernwurst

    Place the bauernwurst on the grill or in a skillet on medium heat. Cook for about 10-12 minutes, turning occasionally, until they are browned and cooked through.

Preparing the Creamy Horseradish Sauce

  1. 7

    Mix the sauce

    In a bowl, combine sour cream, prepared horseradish, lemon juice, Dijon mustard, salt, and black pepper. Mix well until smooth and creamy. Adjust seasoning to taste.

Serving

  1. 8

    Plate the dish

    Slice the smoked pork loin, pork belly, and bauernwurst. Arrange on a serving platter and serve with the creamy horseradish sauce on the side.
