This sophisticated smoked BBQ pork with watercress salad is a fantastic dairy-free option for those looking to elevate their weekend lunch. By using a simple home-smoking technique with hickory wood chips and a bamboo steamer, the pork tenderloin takes on a deep, aromatic flavour that pairs beautifully with the zingy citrus and ginger marinade. It is a dish that feels celebratory yet remains surprisingly light and nutritious.
The accompanying salad provides a peppery crunch thanks to the fresh watercress and sharp shallots, while the chopped hard-boiled eggs add a boost of protein and satisfying texture. Dressed in a light honey and mustard vinaigrette, this vibrant dish is both heart-healthy and naturally gluten-free if using Tamari, making it an excellent choice for a wholesome homemade meal that does not compromise on savoury depth.

How to make Smoked BBQ Pork with Watercress Salad
Tillbaka till innehållIn a large bowl, combine the soy sauce, orange juice, ginger, and garlic. Add the pork, turning to coat. Cover and refrigerate for at least 12 hours.
Remove the pork from the marinade, discarding the marinade. Pat dry with paper towels. Put the pork on a plate and refrigerate for 1 hour to dry out.
Line a large bamboo steamer with parchment paper. Lay two sheets of foil in the bottom of a wok. Place drained wood chips on top. Turn heat to high. Add water.
Lay the pork in the bamboo steamer; season with pepper.
Place ice cubes in a heatproof measuring cup in the steamer next to the pork to create a cold smoke. Set the steamer inside the smoking wok. Cover and smoke, keeping the temperature under 66°C (65°C), for 20 minutes.
Preheat grill to high. Grill the pork for about 5 minutes on each side. (Pork may also be cooked in a large skillet until browned but still slightly pink inside.)
In a bowl, toss the watercress with the shallot and eggs. Season with Maldon salt and pepper.
In a small bowl, combine the mayonnaise, mustard, honey, and lemon juice; whisk well. Season with salt and pepper. To serve, toss the salad with the dressing. Slice the pork and arrange on plates or a platter. Top with the watercress salad.
