Pitmaster Servantes and his Burnt Bean Co. barbecue team are long-time users of Smithfield products and 40-time Grand Champions on the circuit. Servantes also won Food Network’s “Chopped: Grill Masters.”
“Grilling or barbecuing with the best quality ingredients is one of those things that can bring the whole neighborhood together. That’s why I use Smithfield Fresh Pork when grilling for my family and friends. My goal for summer grill-outs is for everyone to have a great time and be satisfied,” Servantes said. “For many years, it has been a great honor and privilege to serve the highest-quality of Smithfield Fresh Pork to my loved ones.”
Servantes has prepared several easy-to-grill recipes, including:
• Cactus Jack Texas Spareribs — A spin-off of traditional ribs, this version includes a Cactus Jack Rub, Rattlesnake BBQ Sauce, and oak or pecan wood for smoking.
• Honey Soy Grilled Pork Chops with Korean BBQ Sauce — The dish features Smithfield Boneless Center Cut Pork Chops. The Korean barbecue sauce consists of garlic, soy sauce, sriracha, brown sugar, ginger and original barbecue sauce.
• Jammin’ Jerk Pork Burger — The pork burger includes cabbage slaw, jerk barbecue sauce and mango salsa.
