CROWN ROAST OF PORK



Crown Roast of Pork image

Provided by Anne Burrell

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 30

4 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
1 bunch fresh rosemary, picked and finely chopped
1 bunch fresh sage, picked and finely chopped
1/2 teaspoon crushed red pepper
1/2 cup extra-virgin olive oil
One 13-rib pork loin, membrane between the rib bones slit to allow the pork to curl around and stand up
Kosher salt
Pear and Chestnut Stuffing, recipe follows
3 cloves garlic, smashed
2 ribs celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1 Spanish onion, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/2 fennel bulb, cut into 1/4-inch dice
8 cups chicken stock
2 cups dry white wine
2 bay leaves
Kosher salt
Extra-virgin olive oil
8 ounces slab bacon, cut into 1/4-inch dice
4 ribs celery, cut into 1/4-inch dice
2 Spanish onions, cut into 1/4-inch dice
1/4 fennel bulb, cut into 1/4-inch dice
Kosher salt
4 sprigs rosemary, picked and finely chopped
3 cloves garlic, smashed and finely chopped
8 ounces peeled chestnuts, coarsely chopped
3/4 cup dried cranberries
4 Anjou pears, peeled and cut into 1/2-inch dice
2 cups dry white wine
12 cups cubed crustless, stale sourdough or peasant bread
4 cups chicken stock, warmed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • For the pork: In a small bowl, combine the garlic, rosemary, sage and crushed red pepper with 1/2 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the pork generously with salt and brush both sides with the olive oil herb paste.
  • Stand the pork rack up and curl it around so that the two ends meet; be sure that the thick meaty part of the pork is on the inside. Secure the roast by tying it twice around the outside of the roast with twine.
  • Place the pork in a large roasting pan fitted with a pizza pan tray and stuff the center of the pork with the Pear and Chestnut Stuffing. (There will be leftover stuffing. Place the leftover stuffing in a baking dish and cook for 35 minutes at 350 degrees F.)
  • For the pan sauce: Place the garlic and diced veggies around the pork. Add half the chicken stock, the wine and bay leaves to the pan. Sprinkle everything with salt.
  • Cover the pork bones with aluminum foil to prevent the bones from burning. Place the pork in the oven. Roast until the pork is starting to brown, about 30 minutes.
  • Turn the oven down to 325 degrees F.
  • Roast the pork for 2 1/2 more hours, basting the pork occasionally. Rotate the pork a couple of times during the cooking time. If the liquid level reduces, replace it with the remaining stock.
  • When the pork is cooked to the proper doneness - an instant-read thermometer should read 140 to 145 degrees F - remove it from the oven. Carefully transfer the pork to a serving platter and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Let the pork rest for 20 to 25 minutes.
  • Bring the pan juices to a boil. Taste and re-season if needed. Blend the veggies if desired to create a smoother sauce. I also like to leave them in.
  • To serve: Remove the twine. Scoop out the stuffing and cut the pork in between the bones to create chops. Top with pan sauce.
  • Coat a wide, straight-sided pan with olive oil and add the bacon. Bring the pan to a medium heat and let the bacon get brown and crispy.
  • Add the celery, onions and fennel and season with salt. Cook the veggies until they get soft and very aromatic, 8 to10 minutes. Add the rosemary and garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more.
  • Toss in the chestnuts, cranberries and pears, and stir to combine. Add the wine and let it reduce by half.
  • Put the bread in a large mixing bowl and add the cooked veggie mixture to the bread. Stir to combine and douse the bread with half the stock. Use your hands to combine the bread, veggies and stock. Add more stock when/if needed to really saturate the bread. Season with salt and taste it to make sure it is delicious.

CRACKLING CRUST ROAST PORK WITH MOJO RECIPE BY TASTY



Crackling Crust Roast Pork With Mojo Recipe by Tasty image

This crispy, citrusy roast pork will be the star of your dinner table. The pork shoulder is marinated in a Cuban-inspired mojo sauce, baked for hours until tender, then broiled for that crispy, crackly skin. Pro tip: use a sharp knife to score the pork skin. This will help any excess fat render out during cooking, as well as allow those mojo flavors to really penetrate the meat!

Provided by Tikeyah Whittle

Categories     Lunch

Time 6h40m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pork shoulder, bone-in, skin-on
24 cloves garlic
2 tablespoons kosher salt
½ cup olive oil
¼ cup fresh oregano, plus 1 tablespoon, finely chopped, divided
1 tablespoon ground cumin
2 oranges, zested
2 limes, zested
2 cups fresh lime juice
1 ½ cups fresh orange juice

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350°F (180°C) .
  • Using a sharp knife, score the pork skin and fat in a diamond pattern, spacing the cuts ½ inch apart and taking care not to cut into the meat.
  • Combine the garlic and salt in a food processor and pulse until the garlic is finely chopped. Add the olive oil, whole oregano leaves, cumin, and orange and lime zests and process into a smooth paste.
  • Rub the paste all over the pork shoulder, making sure it gets into the scores. Transfer the pork shoulder to a baking dish or a roasting pan and pour the lime and orange juices around the pork. Cover the baking dish with foil.
  • Bake until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers between 180°F (82°C) and 190°F (88°C), 6-7 hours. Remove the pork from the oven and turn on the broiler.
  • Uncover the pork and turn the oven to broil. Return the pork to the oven and broil until the skin puffs and is golden brown and crisp, 10-15 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting board and let rest for 20 minutes.
  • Meanwhile, pour the pan juices into a small saucepan and bring to a boil over high heat. Cook until reduced slightly, about 10 minutes. Remove the sauce from the heat and pour through a fine-mesh strainer into a small bowl. Skim off the fat, if desired. Stir the finely chopped oregano into the sauce.
  • Serve the pork shoulder with the sauce and your favorite side dishes.
  • Enjoy!

CANDIED PORK SHOULDER



Candied Pork Shoulder image

An evening that calls for both bourbon and pork is sure to be delicious and raucous. This recipe for candied pork, from chef Chris Shepherd's soon-to-open "Underbelly" in Houston, TX, combines the two, creating one falling-apart, over-the-top main course. Pork shoulder is rubbed with spices and slow-roasted for hours before being slathered with a potent mixture of brown sugar and bourbon, capturing the tender meat in a crisp, spicy-sweet crust. - I've included the original cooking instructions and since I doubled mine to a 8lb roast, I coked it a little lower and slower so I could cook it overnight.

Categories     Pork

Time 6h

Yield 10 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

pork shoulder
1 tablespoon smoked paprika
1 1/2 teaspoons red pepper flakes
1 1/2 teaspoons cayenne pepper
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon black pepper, ground
4 lbs pork shoulder, bone-in
glaze
2 1/2 cups light brown sugar, loosely packed
1/2 cup Bourbon (I used 10 year Eagle Rare Brand)

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275°.(I did 250) In a small bowl, whisk together the smoked paprika, red pepper flakes, cayenne, salt and black pepper. Rub the mixture all over the pork shoulder and set aside for 30 minutes.
  • Set the pork onto a rack-lined roasting pan and place in the oven. Cook until the flesh is fork tender and the bone moves around easily with no resistance, about 5 hours (I cooked 8 hours).
  • When the pork has about 15 minutes cooking time left, make the glaze: In a medium saucepot set over medium heat, bring the brown sugar and bourbon to a simmer, stirring occasionally, until reduced by one-quarter, 8 to 10 minutes.
  • Remove the pork from the oven and brush one-third of the glaze all over the shoulder. Continue to roast for 30 minutes longer, glazing the roast every 10 minutes. Remove from the oven and set aside to rest for 15 minutes before breaking the meat apart into big pieces. (I chopped mine) Serve.
  • I also made another reduction of some light brown sugar with just enough water to fully melt the sugar. I let it reduce some then added more bourbon. I poured this over the chopped pork as a BBQ type sauce.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork roast. For this recipe, a pork shoulder or pork butt roast is best. These cuts are well-marbled and have a lot of connective tissue, which will break down and become tender during the long cooking process.
  • Prepare the pork roast. Remove any excess fat from the pork roast. Then, use a sharp knife to score the skin in a diamond pattern. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat.
  • Make the marinade. The marinade is what gives the pork roast its delicious flavor. There are many different marinade recipes available, but some common ingredients include soy sauce, brown sugar, garlic, ginger, and five-spice powder.
  • Marinate the pork roast. Place the pork roast in a large resealable bag or container. Pour the marinade over the pork roast and turn to coat evenly. Refrigerate the pork roast for at least 8 hours or overnight.
  • Cook the pork roast. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Place the pork roast in a roasting pan and add 1 cup of water. Cover the roasting pan tightly with foil and roast the pork roast for 3-4 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 165 degrees F (74 degrees C).
  • Let the pork roast rest. Once the pork roast is cooked, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.

Conclusion:

Crystal or rock candied pork roast is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a special occasion.
