Categories     Meat and Poultry Recipes     Pork

Time 2h30m

Yield 6

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons butter
½ teaspoon ground black pepper
½ teaspoon cayenne pepper
½ teaspoon dried thyme
1 teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon dry mustard powder
2 cloves garlic, minced
1 (3 pound) boneless pork loin roast
1 stalk celery, diced
2 medium carrots, diced
1 large onion, diced
salt and ground black pepper to taste
3 tablespoons flour
½ cup pork stock

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
  • Melt the butter in a skillet over medium heat, and stir in the black pepper, cayenne pepper, thyme, oregano, dry mustard powder, and garlic. Cook and stir until the garlic is fragrant, about 1 minute. Remove from heat.
  • With a sharp knife, make several small slits in the pork roast. Place the roast into a roasting pan, and spread the spice mixture all over the roast and in the incisions. Surround the roast with celery, carrots, and onion, and season to taste with salt and black pepper.
  • Roast in the preheated oven until the pork roast is browned and an instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the roast reads at least 150 degrees F (65 degrees C), about 2 hours. About 15 minutes before the end of cooking, turn the oven temperature up to 425 to help brown the roast.
  • Remove pork roast from oven, and allow to stand for about 10 minutes before slicing. Check temperature again; roast temperature should be at least 160 degrees F (75 degrees C) before serving.
  • While roast is resting, place the roasting pan containing vegetables and pan drippings over a stove burner set to medium heat. Whisk in the flour, and simmer the drippings and flour for about 3 minutes to remove raw taste from flour. Whisk in the pork stock, a little at a time, until the gravy is thickened. Strain the gravy, and serve with the roast.

PORK ROAST WITH ROASTED JALAPEñO GRAVY



Pork Roast With Roasted Jalapeño Gravy image

Eddie Hernandez, who runs Taqueria del Sol, a string of easygoing Mexican restaurants in Georgia and Tennessee, considers himself a born-again Southern boy whose food reflects a mash-up of the two cultures. He grew up in a working-class neighborhood in Monterrey, Mexico, where a pork roast like this would have never made it onto the table. But he came to love the roast's role in a traditional Southern Sunday supper, and decided to give it his own Mexican twist. It has become one of the most popular specials at his restaurants. The granulated garlic and onion are essential to the flavor. The roast cooks fast in a hot oven that crisps the fat. The residual oven heat roasts the jalapeños while the meat rests. Once you make the roux, the rich gravy for the dish comes together quickly.

Provided by Kim Severson

Categories     dinner, meat, main course

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 tablespoon granulated onion
2 1/2 to 3 pounds boneless pork loin, with a good layer of fat on it
3 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
2 jalapeños
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 cup half-and-half
2 cups pork stock or chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 475 degrees. Mix together salt, pepper, granulated garlic and onion. Place the pork on a rack set in a roasting pan and sprinkle the roast with the spice mixture, rubbing it lightly so it adheres to the meat.
  • Roast for 30 to 40 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees. If the fat begins to get too dark, tent with foil.
  • While the roast is cooking, make a roux for the gravy by melting the butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat. Add the flour all at once and whisk vigorously until smooth. When the mixture thins and starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, whisking slowly, until the mixture smells nutty and toasty and is still light colored. Cook for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally, then set aside and let cool.
  • When the roast is done, cover and let it rest for at least 10 minutes. Reduce the oven to 450 degrees. Place the jalapeños in a small pan, brush with oil and roast for 6 minutes, or until soft. Remove the stems and some or all of the seeds and membranes, depending on how hot the peppers are and how hot you want the gravy. Dice the jalapeños.
  • Place the half-and-half, stock, salt and jalapeños in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Quickly reduce heat to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the roux and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, whisking continually, until the sauce is thickened and bubbly. Stir in a little more roux if needed to reach the desired thickness and, if desired, any accumulated juices from the roast. Slice the roast, cover in gravy and serve.

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pork     Pork Roast Recipes

Time 4h25m

Yield 7

Number Of Ingredients 19

¼ cup garlic powder
¼ cup onion powder
1 tablespoon crushed red pepper flakes
1 tablespoon freshly cracked black pepper
1 (3 1/2) pound pork shoulder roast
½ cup Creole-style butter injectable marinade (such as Tony Chachere's Roasted Garlic & Herb Marinade®)
¼ cup butter
2 large shallots, chopped
2 cloves elephant garlic, chopped
1 cup water
3 sweet onions (such as Vidalia®), peeled and quartered
7 red potatoes
10 large baby carrots
4 stalks celery, cut into 4 pieces
1 tablespoon freshly cracked black pepper
2 tablespoons garlic powder
1 tablespoon onion powder
2 cups water
6 tablespoons dry brown gravy mix

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). In a mortar, smash together 1/4 cup of garlic powder, 1/4 cup of onion powder, the crushed red pepper flakes, and 1 tablespoon of cracked black pepper until the mixture forms a fine powder. Place the spice mix into a large shallow bowl.
  • Inject the pork roast all over with the Creole marinade; blot moisture from the outside of the roast. Rub the spice mix all over the pork roast to thoroughly coat. Melt the butter in a large skillet over medium heat, then cook and stir the shallots and elephant garlic until the garlic becomes lightly golden brown. Sear the coated pork roast in the hot butter on all sides until the spice coating is golden brown, 1 to 2 minutes per side. Place the roast into a roasting pan or Dutch oven with the fat side up; scrape up the butter, cooked shallots and garlic, and sprinkle around the roast. Arrange the sweet onions, red potatoes, carrots, and celery pieces around the roast. Mix 1 cup of water with the remaining spice rub, and pour evenly over roast.
  • Cover the roasting pan with a lid, and cook in the preheated oven until the meat is very tender, 3 3/4 to 4 hours.
  • Remove the roast and set aside on a serving platter; surround the meat with the cooked vegetables. Whisk 1 tablespoon of cracked black pepper, 2 tablespoons of garlic powder, 1 tablespoon of onion powder, and the brown gravy mix together with 2 cups of water in a bowl, and whisk the mixture into the liquid left in the roasting pan. Place the pan over medium heat, and cook, whisking constantly, until the gravy has come to a boil and has thickened, about 5 minutes. Serve alongside the roast and vegetables.

One 6-to-8-pound pork shoulder (boned out, no skin)
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Paprika, for sprinkling
5 medium carrots, cut in half, then cut in half lengthwise
8 whole red potatoes
2 medium onions, quartered
4 to 6 cloves garlic
1/2 cup all-purpose flour, plus more if necessary
3 cups chicken stock
1/2 cup flat-leaf parsley leaves, finely chopped

  • After 3 hours remove the pork from the oven and gently lift the rack off the pan. Scatter the carrots, potatoes, onions and garlic in an even layer and season with salt and pepper.

Gradually stir in the stock, being sure to scrape the bottom of the pan for brown bits. Bring to a simmer so the gravy can fully thicken, and then stir in the parsley. Serve the pork with lots of vegetables and the pan gravy on and around.

CROWN ROAST WITH GRAVY



Crown Roast with Gravy image

You'll most likely have to special order this cut of pork (where the loin has yet to be trimmed from the rib portion), but aside from the advanced planning require, this dramatic recipe is surprisingly simple to make.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 8-to-9-pound crown roast of pork
Salt and freshly ground pepper
5 1/2 tablespoons olive oil
Grated zest of 1 orange
4 large cloves garlic, minced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
Wild-Rice Dressing
3/4 cup dry white wine
1/2 cup fresh apple cider
1 1/2 cups veal or chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 tablespoon unsalted butter, room temperature
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 425 degrees. Position rack in lower third of the oven.
  • Prepare the crown roast of pork as you would any other roast; begin by seasoning with salt and pepper, and brush meat with 4 tablespoons olive oil.
  • In small bowl, combine orange zest, garlic, rosemary, and the remaining 1 1/2 tablespoons olive oil. Spread mixture evenly over the meat, inside and out. Place meat in a heavy-duty roasting pan with a rack large enough to hold roast without crowding sides. Roast 15 minutes. Reduce heat to 375 degrees. Continue roasting, rotating pan after 45 minutes, until meat is well browned and an instant-read thermometer registers 150 degrees, about 1 1/2 hours. (Insert thermometer into meaty center of the crown, making sure that it does not touch any ribs. Take several readings to ensure that temperature is even all around.)
  • While the crown roast is cooking, make the Wild-Rice Dressing. Remove roast from oven, transfer to a cutting board with a well, and let stand 20 minutes. Raise oven temperature to 425 degrees. Place dressing in oven, and bake until heated through, about 20 minutes. Pour the pan juices into a fat separator or glass measuring cup, and let stand 5 to 10 minutes. If using a separator, carefully pour juice back into pan; discard fat. If using a measuring cup, carefully remove fat with a spoon, and return juices to pan. Place roasting pan on top of stove over medium-high heat. Add the wine, and bring to a boil. Using a wooden spoon, stir up any brown bits on the bottom of the pan. Boil until half of the liquid has evaporated, 5 to 7 minutes. Stir in apple cider and stock; season with salt and pepper, and return liquid to a boil. In a small bowl, combine the butter with the flour. Mix until completely combined. Transfer this mixture to the roasting pan. Whisk constantly until the gravy has slightly thickened, 4 to 5 minutes. Remove pan from heat, and strain liquid into a gravy boat.
  • Carefully lift roast out of pan, and place on a serving platter; spoon the dressing into the center of the roast, and carve.

  • Make a gravy from the braising liquid. This is a great way to add extra flavor to the dish.
  • Serve the pork roast with your favorite sides. Mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, and green beans are all good options.
