Sweet and Sour Pork! (Homemade Sweet and Sour Sauce)
(You will need a 1 lb. 4 oz. can of pineapple rings)
(Drain the juice and set it aside for later)
(Cut the pineapple rings into big chunks)
Cut a pork "tenderloin"... "not a pork loin"... into 3/4 to 1 inch
pieces. (should be around 3/4 of a lb. of meat)
Put the pieces into a bowl and add 1 tbsp. soy sauce,
1/4 tsp. salt, 1/4 tsp. baking soda, and 3 tbsp. of that
pineapple juice you kept.
Mix the meat well and chill in the refrigerator for 2 to 4 hours.
Now make your sweet and sour sauce. (You can use store bought)
1/2 cup of ketchup
1/2 cup of rice vinegar
1/2 cup of sugar (you can use 50/50 brown and white sugar)
1/2 cup pineapple juice (from that can of pineapple rings)
1 tsp. of dark soy sauce (or 2 tsp. regular soy sauce)
1 tbsp. duck sauce
Bring it all to a simmer then... slowly add a cornstarch slurry.
To make the slurry ...Take 1 tbsp. of corn starch and a tbsp.
of water and mix it well. Stir it in slowly and it will thicken.
After it thickens ... Remove it from the heat and set it aside.
Prepare the wet and dry dredge for your pork chunks.
Blend 3 eggs up good in a bowl. This is your wet mixture.
In a separate bowl pour 2 cups of all purpose flour and
1 cup of cornstarch... mix well.
Dip the pork chunks in the egg mixture then dredge them in the
flour and cornstarch mixture. Put these pieces in a bowl.
Once you have coated all the pork... do it again.
It's called double dipping. Take the already coated chunks
and roll them back in the egg mixture making sure they get
wet then back in the dry mixture one more time.
Once they are all double dipped... put small batches
(about 7 or 8 pieces at a time) into 350 degree vegetable
oil and cook for about 6 minutes or until the internal temp
is 140 degrees. (drain on paper towels and set aside)
In a hot wok put 1 to 2 tbsp vegetable oil and add about
1/3 cup of onions and a 1/3 of a cup of carrots together.
Cook for 3 to 4 minutes then add 1 green bell pepper and
1 red bell pepper cut into big 1 and 1/2 inch chunks.
Cook for 3 to 4 minutes then add 1/2 of the sweet and sour
sauce. Now add your fried pork chunks and mix it all together.
Add more sweet and sour sauce until it reaches the mixture
you like!... It's all done!
Serve over a bed of rice and sprinkle on some sesame seeds!
(I forgot to add the sesame seeds!) Oops!
Enjoy!

Thanks Shotgun Red for another great video. FANTASTIC! :D

Your welcome. Steve passed away Dec 2018

[@fastcars393]

Cooking with Shotgun Red Oh I didn't know. My condolences and best wishes to you and his family if its not too late? I only just started watching his videos for the first time whilst surfing youtube. I like to think that death is only the beginning of something new. Maybe he's up in heaven now cooking FANTASTIC food? Whi knows except that his happy and cheerful personality will be greatly missed. :)

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

@@fastcars393 Thanks!

[@D13fs]

Gosh darn, I always thought corn starch and corn flour were the same thing! Who told me that? Well, now I know, thanks to Steve.

[@treebuck]

Steve really knew how to present a recipe. What a marvelous showman. Also, there's just something about the way he says "perfect" that lets you know this is dang good tasting.

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Yes he did. You can go to shotgunred1000 and see Steve out fishing and in his garden. etc... He was a great cook!😋💗😊 shotgunred.com

[@treebuck]

@@CookingwithShotgunRed I will!

[@mikerivers2705]

Hello Steve, I found that pineapple juice is a fantastic meat tenderizer. I use it for the tougher cuts of my bbq meats. Works great and no sweetening of the meat either.

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Sounds great!

[@cherylb10]

Mmmmmmmmmmm so so good

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Yes it’s a! ! Thanks for watching! 😊

[@philchigges2955]

I swear I can smell it cooking.rip steve.god bless you buddy.

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

❤️🌹

[@phyllissolem]

Here's a hint about corn flour: I think that corn flour is another name for corn starch. Chinese have often coated items to be fried (deep or shallow fry) in corn starch and/or sometimes depending on the recipe, I coat meat in corn starch and soy sauce. I enjoy watching your show on KZbin. P. Solem

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Great idea!

[@coryboyd7958]

Steve helped me make the move from Heinz ketchup to hunts ketchup, never looked back.

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Glad you made the switch! 👍😊

[@anneholden9908]

Publix has the best customer service!❤

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

They do have great service!👍😊

[@lindajasso473]

Yummy

[@tristanharris205]

Never disappointed

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Thanks Tristian!😃

[@watzup62]

Ya'll had me at double dipped!

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

thanks! lol!

[@alexvids9232]

It's normal for a store to seperate cuts if possible.

[@CapnBubbaa]

corn flour can be made from any popcorn in the blender or corn meal in the blender, in small amounts (a couple cups)

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Great tip!

[@ant-1382]

They are cloned, and they are in every store. I can't imagine not doing that customer service request.

[@kismymailks]

Publix's is good for their customer service. They will also order you things if you need something and they don't have it. I always been taught that corn starch is cornflour.

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Love Publix's! Glad you like this channel! We are all family here!

[@juanitataylor6947]

I have had this with pork shoulder in the 50th

[@jacquelinemilton6387]

You have to look for corn flower at a Chinese food shop

[@angiebega2444]

This looks delicious i make this too but for some reason i always forget the pineapple😂 gonna try this recipe😀👍❤

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

It's so good Angie!🙂💗😃

[@Shaden0040]

Pineapple juice is a natural meat tenderizer.

[@mgbillow]

I yelled at Steve. "Don't eat all Sheila's pineapple"

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

LOL :)

[@section8usmc53]

Score one for Sheila for the extra pineapple. Sweet and sour cooked pineapple is the best !!! 🍍

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

👍😊

[@ronbell7875]

keep showing Steves shows.

[@jacquelinebarnard8421]

Thanks about the spoon that sound gives me the creeps lol 😂

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

😅

[@CookingSherry]

Look on Amazon for Corn flour

[@ryanbahnsen6429]

That sweet n sour sauce is similar to my moms meatloaf sauce. No pineapple juice and Worcestershire sauce instead of soy sauce.

[@disabledtina]

shotgun red your an amazing cook and your wife is good with the camera

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Thank you so much! Unfortunely Steve passed away Dec 29th 2018

[@Li.Siyuan]

Cornflour is everybody else's name for the US name of cornstarch...

[@Shaden0040]

Can you replace the sugar with honey instead?

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Yes you can

[@SB-000]

Maybe you have to look in Asian or Filipino markets for the flour.

[@michellepreyer4929]

Quite similar to my dish but I honestly have tried the ketchup and I'd rather make the homemade sauce without its tangy 🍅 based background flav

[@michellepreyer4929]

Missing this guy

[@jeffreyjeffrey4481]

Sadly, Steve is no longer with us. Truly sad to me as he had many awesome recipes. But personally I use Maggi in lieu of soy sauce in all of my recipes. It’s less sweet and a bit more salty which is perfect for me.

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Thanks for sharing!

[@garyvanbuskirk2461]

Shells is right it looked like you were using cast iron a metal tool can break loose the seasoning in the pan be nice to your cast iron and it will be nice to you I prefer my cast to anything else you can buy

[@georgeviau4558]

..."PRETTY MS. SHEILA"..."GOOD CALL SHEILA..."(the spoon)...a bag of masa for tortillas is corn flour...

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

Thanks for watching! I hate that clanking sound! :)

[@calioutdoorscatch1232]

Doing this with the next wild pig i shot next!

[@darrellhornick7764]

Wonder how this would turn out using chicken chunks instead of the pork???

[@CookingwithShotgunRed]

I think it would be great!!! 😋👍 Let us know if you try it!
