Yokkaichi Pork Steak--The Real Deal

I spend a lot of time in Yokkaichi, so this is a familiar flavor.
The combination of the Worcestershire sauce and garlic is what determines the taste.
For an ultimate summer treat, have it with beer!

Use a well-scored pork shoulder. Pink back loin with thick white fat on the edges just doesn't have the same flavor.
If it's cheaper, get a big block of shoulder meat and slice it yourself at home!
The thicker the meat, the better! Recipe by Mameningen

Ingredients

2 servings
  1. 2Pork shoulder
  2. 3 cloveGarlic (paste is fine)
  3. 2 tbsp●Japanese Worcestershire sauce
  4. 1 tbsp●Soy sauce
  5. 1 tbsp●Mirin
  6. 2 tsp●Sugar
  7. 1Salt and pepper
  8. 2 tbspLard (or vegetable oil)

Cooking Instructions

  1. 1

    First, combine the ● ingredients. If you're using garlic paste, add it here.

  2. 2

    Lightly season both sides of the pork with salt and pepper. Then slice it into the shape of a glove. This makes even thick cuts of meat cook quicker!

  3. 3

    If you have a tenderizer, give the pork a few whacks. If not, use the tip of a knife to score the pork. This will make it highly tender.

  4. 4

    Heat the lard in a pan and sauté the meat. For those using raw garlic cloves, (cut them in half) toss them in.

  5. 5

    After browning one side over medium heat, flip the pork, reduce the heat and cook through. If you're concerned about under-cooking, cover with a lid.

  6. 6

    Once the meat is cooked through, pour in the sauce you made in Step 1. Once the sauce thickens, it's done!

  7. 7

    I used leftover veggies as a side, but I recommend serving this with shredded cabbage. It's amazing with the sauce!!
