For the Apple Stuffing:
1/2 cup celery (diced)
1/2 cup sweet onion (diced)
2 tablespoons butter (1/4 stick)
1 large apple (Granny Smith, cut into 1/2-inch dice)
1 medium clove garlic (pressed)
1 cup chicken broth
4 cups stuffing mix
1/4 cup apple juice
2 teaspoons fresh sage (minced)
2 teaspoons fresh thyme leaves
For the Pork Roast:
1 large clove garlic (cut into slivers)
1 5 to 7-pound pork shoulder roast (deboned, see Note below)​
Kosher salt
Black pepper (freshly ground)
1 3/4 cups chicken broth
1/2 cup apple juice

Steps:

  • Gather the ingredients.
  • Preheat oven to 375 F. Line a large baking pan with heavy-duty foil or have a large, heavy with a lid ready to go.
  • In a large pot, gently saute celery and sweet onion in butter until onion is translucent. Add and pressed garlic ; cook about 1 minute longer, stirring often. Add chicken broth and apple juice. Bring to a boil. Remove from heat. Stir in sage and thyme . Then add stuffing mix, tossing gently to absorb the liquid. Let rest to cool.
  • Place the deboned pork shoulder roast fat-side up on a cutting board. Sprinkle liberally with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper . Turn roast over and again sprinkle liberally with salt and pepper. You may need to add a few cuts so that it lies open and flat.
  • Poke holes in the meat with a sharp knife and insert garlic slivers into the pork .
  • Pack cooled stuffing on top of the open pork roast. Roll one side to the other, lengthwise, to enclose the stuffing and secure with kitchen twine. Place roast seam-side down in the baking pan or Dutch oven. Pour chicken broth and apple juice around the bottom. Cover with a layer of heavy-duty foil and seal edges to the rim of the pan or cover with a tight-fitting lid.
  • Bake about 2 hours. Remove foil and bake an additional 30 minutes until skin is browned. Center should read at least 170 F with a meat thermometer. Let rest 15 minutes before slicing to serve.​ Note: Some butchers will debone the pork shoulder roast at no extra cost, while others will charge a higher price. It's easy to debone the roast yourself in about 15 minutes.

1 package cornbread mix (I use Jiffy Cornbread mix, which is 8 1/2 ounces) prepared per directions, cooled and crumbled
2 cups bread crumbs
1 pound country sausage, browned and drained
1/2 cup raisins
1 cup of apple pie filling, cut into small pieces
1 tablespoon sage, add more according to taste
1 tablespoon poultry seasoning, add more according to taste

Salt and pepper, to taste
1 tablespoon crushed, dried rosemary
Sage, to taste
Cotton twine

Steps:

  • Mix the crumbled cornbread and the bread crumbs in a large bowl. Add sausage, raisins, and apple pie filling. Mix well. Add seasonings. Pour in half of the chicken broth and the cream of mushroom soup and stir well. Add the remaining broth until you get the moisture consistency desired.
  • Lay the shoulder flat. Spoon the stuffing mixture onto the center and spread to within 1/2-inch of sides. Roll the roast from the shortest end. Using several lengths of cotton twine, tie the roast securely and knot the string.
  • Place the rolled roast in a roasting pan coated with oil and flour. Rub the meat with the olive oil. Sprinkle with salt and pepper, rosemary and sage. Cover, and bake in a preheated 350 degree oven until meat thermometer reaches 170 degrees, about 1 hour 45 minutes. Remove cover, and allow the roast to brown slightly. Allow roast to cool slightly before slicing.

SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFED PORK ROAST



Sausage and Apple Stuffed Pork Roast image

Provided by Melissa d'Arabian : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 pound mild Italian sausage (or 2 links, casings removed)
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 tart apple, peeled and diced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pieces white bread
2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons butter
One 3-pound boneless pork loin
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup white wine

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, saute the sausage until no longer pink. Remove the sausage (leave in the fat), and set aside. To the pan, add the onion, celery, and apple and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until the apple is no longer crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional couple of minutes. Remove from the heat, stir the sausage back in and set aside.
  • In a food processor, pulse the bread with the sage, rosemary, and thyme into coarse crumbs.
  • Heat the butter in a medium saute pan and cook the crumbs over medium-high heat until coated with butter and lightly toasted, about 3 minutes (be careful not to burn). Mix the breadcrumbs into the sausage mixture.
  • Prepare the roast as if making a jellyroll. Place the roast with the short side toward you, and fat facing down toward the counter or cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice the roast open at about 1/2-inch from the bottom of the roast (parallel to the cutting board), being careful not to cut all the way through. Continue cutting, unrolling the roast as you work until you have a large, thin piece of meat. Place the rolled out piece of meat between 2 sheets of waxed or parchment paper, and lightly pound with meat mallet to increase the meat surface area by 10 to 20 percent. Be careful not to pound through the meat. Salt and pepper the pork and top with the filling, spreading evenly across the pork, leaving a 1-inch margin around the perimeter.
  • Starting with the short side, roll up tightly jellyroll style, and secure the roast with kitchen twine.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add oil. Add the roast and brown on all sides. Place in a roasting pan fitted with a rack and add the wine in the bottom of the pan (to keep the juices from burning), and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the internal temperature hits 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the roast from the oven and allow to rest for a full 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

6 slices firm white sandwich bread, cut into 1-inch squares
3/4 stick (6 tablespoons) unsalted butter
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1/2 cup finely chopped celery including some leaves
11/2 lb tart apples such as Granny Smith, peeled and cut into 1/4-inch-thick wedges
1/3 cup sugar

For roast:

1 1/2 teaspoons salt
1/2 teaspoon black pepper
1/3 lb sliced bacon
For pan sauce:
1 1/2 cups water
1/4 cup red-currant or apple jelly

Steps:

  • Make stuffing:
  • Preheat oven to 350°F.
  • Spread bread squares in 1 layer in a shallow baking pan and bake in middle of oven until dry and lightly toasted, about 15 minutes. Leave oven on (for roast) and cool bread.
  • Cook onion and celery in butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, stirring occasionally, until softened, 4 to 5 minutes. Stir in apples, sugar, salt, pepper, sage, thyme, nutmeg, and cinnamon. Reduce heat to low, then cook, covered, stirring, until apples are tender, about 15 minutes. Stir in bread squares, parsley, and chives.
  • Make roast:
  • Set oven rack in lower third of oven. Sprinkle roast inside and out with salt and pepper and put in a large flameproof roasting pan. Mound stuffing in cavity. Wrap tips of rib bones with foil to prevent burning, then wrap meat below bones with overlapping bacon strips, securing them with wooden toothpicks.
  • Roast pork in middle of oven, covering stuffing loosely with foil after 30 minutes, until an instant-read thermometer registers 155°F when inserted 2 inches into center of meat (do not touch bones), 2 1/4 to 2 3/4 hours total.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork:Pork shoulder, also known as pork butt, is the best cut for this recipe as it is well-marbled and flavorful. It is also a relatively inexpensive cut of meat.
  • Use a sharp knife:A sharp knife will make it easier to cut through the pork and create a pocket for the stuffing.
  • Don't overstuff the pork:The pork should be stuffed loosely so that it cooks evenly. Overstuffing can make the pork tough and dry.
  • Use a meat thermometer:A meat thermometer is essential for ensuring that the pork is cooked to the proper temperature. The pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork rest before carving:Allowing the pork to rest for 10-15 minutes before carving will help the juices redistribute and make the meat more tender.

Conclusion:

Apple-stuffed pork shoulder is a delicious and flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a casual family dinner. The combination of tender pork, sweet apples, and savory spices is sure to please everyone at the table. With a little bit of planning and effort, you can easily create this impressive dish in your own kitchen.
