作り方
手順
- 1
Place the pork loin strips in a non-reactive bowl or a resealable bag.
約1 分
- 2
In a separate small bowl, whisk together the red wine vinegar, dried oregano, dried thyme, bay leaf, black peppercorns, salt, and minced garlic to create the marinade.
約2 分
- 3
Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring all pieces are well coated. Cover the bowl or seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or preferably overnight, to allow the flavors to meld.
約5 分
調理のヒント: Marinating longer will result in deeper flavor.
- 4
Prepare your smoker or grill for indirect smoking at a low temperature, around 100-120°C (200-250°F). Add the soaked wood chips according to your smoker's instructions.
約15 分
調理のヒント: If using a grill, create a two-zone fire and place wood chips in a foil packet directly on the coals.
- 5
Remove the pork from the marinade, reserving the marinade. Pat the pork strips dry with paper towels.
約2 分
調理のヒント: Drying the pork helps it absorb more smoke and achieve a better sear later.
- 6
Place the pork strips directly on the grates of your smoker or grill. Smoke for 45-60 minutes, or until the pork has a light smoky aroma and a slightly firm texture.
約1 時間
調理のヒント: Do not oversmoke; the goal is a subtle smoky flavor, not overpowering.
- 7
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet or cast-iron pan over medium-high heat.
約1 分
- 8
Sear the smoked pork strips for 1-2 minutes per side until lightly browned and cooked through. If desired, deglaze the pan with a splash of the reserved marinade and reduce slightly.
約5 分
調理のヒント: Avoid overcrowding the pan; cook in batches if necessary to ensure good searing.
- 9
Remove the apaki from the pan and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing thinly against the grain.
約3 分
調理のヒント: Slicing thinly enhances the texture and allows the flavors to shine.

Serve warm or at room temperature, perhaps with a drizzle of olive oil, fresh oregano, and crusty bread.
