Grilled Pork Steaks with Sweet Zucchini
Relish
Ingredients:
2 Schenker Farms Pastured Pork Steaks
1 packet Chef Mark’s Sea Salt & Cracked Black
Pepper seasoning
1 medium sized zucchini, chopped
1 small onion, chopped
2 dashes cinnamon
1/3 cup sugar
½ cup golden raisins (optional)
1T real butter
Between farming and raising a family, we are always
on the go in the summer! This dish is
quick, easy, extremely tasty and best of all…does not involve the drive-thru.
Place chopped onion, zucchini, cinnamon, sugar,
butter and raisins in covered pan on medium heat. While that is cooking, season pork steaks
with Chef Mark’s Sea Salt & Cracked Black Pepper Seasoning and place on
grill. Cook zucchini about 7-8 minutes,
stirring frequently, until soft and done.
Depending on thickness, pork steaks will take 8-12 minutes to cook. Serve warm.
Serves 2-4.
Recommended
Side Dishes: Warm Whole Wheat Rolls and fresh garden
salad.
How
Kids Can Help:
Wash and chop zucchini while Mom or Dad is chopping the onions.
Cooking
Tip:
Thaw pork steaks in the refrigerator or the sink—NEVER the microwave. Using a microwave to thaw lean meat (of any
kind) tends to “rubberize” it.

Grace
Spring has finally sprung at Schenker Family Farms. Each day is getting a little warmer and new life is popping up all over, whether it's in the fresh blades of grass our animals are grazing on or the happy little calves being born.
Each day I wake up filled with anticipation and head out to the pastures. I am anxious to see if we have any "new babies" born. This time of year, I am rarely disappointed. We have been getting one or two new ones each day. One of my favorites, is a little heifer (girl) calf born this week. She is solid black, except for a tiny white heart-shaped mark on her forehead. I've seen a lot of white marks on black calves, but never one in the shape of a heart. Since we already have a calf named "Miss Valentine" (born on St. Valentine's Day), I think we'll name her "Miss Sweetheart."
Just think, in a few days we'll have baby chicks ready to start looking for grass and bugs for dinner. Farm life is a lot of work, but I can't think of a better way to live or a better way to enjoy life.
