Categories     Pork

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 to 2 1/2-pound boneless pork shoulder roast
salt and pepper
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 small pat butter
1 large can whole tomatoes, with juice
1 cup red wine
5 sprigs fresh thyme
5 sprigs fresh oregano
Small handful of fennel seeds
1 tablespoon hot sauce, for smokiness (I used Trader Joe's Hot Chili Sauce)
Pappardelle
Freshly grated Parmesean

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325°F. Liberally salt and pepper the pork roast. Add olive oil and butter to large Dutch oven and heat over medium-high until butter melts, but does not burn. Add pork roast to pan and brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes in all. Add tomatoes, wine, thyme, oregano, and hot sauce and bring to a boil. Cover, and put in oven. Braise for 3-4 hours, turning every hour or so. Add more liquid (water, wine, or tomato sauce) if needed. (The liquid should come to about 1/3 of the way up the pork.) Meat is done when it's practically falling apart. Put on a cutting board and pull it apart with two forks, then add back to pot and stir. Cook 1 to 2 pounds pasta according to package directions. When it's is ready, put into individual bowls and top with ragu and lots of Parm.

I'm not sure what I did wrong, but my ragu turned out really dry. I think I might have cooked it for too long.

I found this ragu to be a bit bland. I had to add some extra salt and pepper to taste.

This ragu is a great way to use up leftover pork. I always have a container of it in my freezer for a quick and easy meal.

This ragu is so versatile. I've served it over pasta, polenta, and mashed potatoes. It's also great on its own.

I made this ragu with gluten-free pasta, and it was still delicious. It's a great recipe for people with dietary restrictions.

This is a great recipe for a slow-cooker meal. I just threw all the ingredients in the pot in the morning, and dinner was ready when I got home from work.

I love the way this ragu is made with pancetta and red wine. It gives it such a rich and flavorful taste.

I've made this ragu several times now, and it's always a hit. It's a great dish to serve when you're having company, or when you just want a comforting meal on a cold night.

This pork ragu is the best I've ever had! The meat was so tender and flavorful, and the sauce was rich and complex. I served it over pasta, and it was a huge hit with my family.
