Categories     main-dish

Time 11h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh rosemary, plus whole sprigs, for roasting the pork
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
One 12-bone pork rack, chine bone removed
Fresh sage sprigs, for roasting the pork
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup ground sweet Italian sausage
1/2 cup finely chopped carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
3 cups diced cornbread (1/2-inch pieces)
1/2 cup finely chopped scallions
1/2 cup finely chopped apples
1/2 cup currants
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh sage
2 cups chicken stock (less or more depending on your preference), hot
6 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup finely minced apples
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 sprig fresh sage, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the crown roast: Mix the garlic and rosemary with the mustard and olive oil in a small bowl. Rub the pork with the mixture and marinate overnight.
  • The next day, rub the excess marinade off the pork. Tie both ends of the rack together by the bones to create a circle or "crown." Put the rosemary and sage sprigs on a sheet tray, and place the pork crown on top of the herbs.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • For the Italian sausage and cornbread stuffing: Heat the olive oil over a medium-high flame in a large Dutch oven until hot. Brown the sausage, then add the carrots, celery and onions. Cook over a medium flame, stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper. When the vegetables are lightly browned, add the nutmeg and allspice and cook for 1 more minute. Add the cornbread and scallions, followed by the apples, currants and sage. Moisten the stuffing with the chicken stock as needed, just until it is moist but not mushy or falling apart. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Season the rack with salt and pepper. Stuff the stuffing into the center until the filling comes to the point of the meat meeting the bone. Roast until caramelized, 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the center of the pork registers 155 degrees F, another 2 hours.
  • For the dijonnaise: Meanwhile, heat the cream in a saucepan over medium heat until reduced by half. Whisk in the apples, mustard and sage. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Set the meat aside to rest for at least 10 minutes, and spoon the stuffing into a bowl. Slice the meat and serve with the dijonnaise.

STUFFED CROWN ROAST OF PORK



Stuffed Crown Roast of Pork image

A savory sausage stuffing accompanies this royal crown roast of a pork. It's fit for a king!

Provided by MARBALET

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pork     Pork Roast Recipes

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons butter
¾ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped celery
½ cup peeled, cored and chopped tart apple
½ cup fresh bread crumbs
1 pound ground pork
½ pound ground seasoned pork sausage
½ cup chopped parsley
½ teaspoon dried sage
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper
9 pounds crown pork roast

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • To Make Stuffing: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When foam subsides add onion and saute, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Stir in celery and apples; saute (without browning) about 5 minutes longer. Scrape skillet contents into a large mixing bowl. Add bread crumbs, ground pork, sausage meat, parsley, sage, salt and pepper. Mix together gently but thoroughly. (Note: Do not taste the uncooked stuffing, for it contains raw pork; instead, fry a small ball of the stuffing in the skillet, then taste and season with more salt and pepper as necessary).
  • Fill the center of the crown with the stuffing, mounding it slightly. Cover it with a round of aluminum foil and wrap the ends of the chop bones in strips of foil to prevent them from charring and snapping off.
  • Place the crown on a rack in a shallow roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably, and roast in the center of the oven, undisturbed, for about 3 hours or until internal temperature of meat is 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). (Note: 30 minutes before pork is done, remove the foil from the top of the stuffing to allow the top to brown.)
  • Carefully transfer the crown to a large, heated, circular platter, strip the foil from the ends of the chops and replace it with paper frills. Let the crown rest for about 10 minutes before carving and serving. To Carve Pork: Insert a large fork in the side of the crown to steady it and, with a large, sharp knife, cut down through each rib to detach the chops. Two chops per person is a customary portion accompanied by a generous serving of the stuffing.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK WITH WILD RICE STUFFING



Crown Roast of Pork with Wild Rice Stuffing image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

Two 10-chop racks of pork from rib-chop section, chine removed and frenched
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
Grated zest of 1 lemon
2 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
Wild Rice Stuffing
Fresh rosemary sprigs, for garnish
Plums, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place racks on a work surface. Using a sharp knife, cut a third of the way through the meat between every two rib chops. (This will help the roast bend and stand upright.) Using a trussing needle and cotton kitchen twine, tie the ends of one rack to the ends of the second rack, being sure that the meat side of each rack faces outward. Tie a second piece of twine around the crown directly below the rib bones. Season with salt and pepper; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine olive oil, zest, garlic, parsley, and sage; rub herb mixture evenly over meat. Transfer roast to a flat rack placed in a large heavy-duty roasting pan.
  • Roast for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 375 degrees and continue roasting, rotating halfway through, until meat is well browned and an instant-read thermometer registers 140 to 150 degrees, about 2 hours 15 minutes. (Insert thermometer into meaty center of crown, avoiding any bone. Take several readings to ensure roast is cooked all over.)
  • Remove from oven; let stand 20 minutes on the rack before transferring it to a serving platter. Remove twine and fill with cooked Wild Rice Stuffing. Garnish with rosemary and plums.
