Porkroastprovencale Recipes

Steps:

• Cut tiny slits in the roast and insert garlic slices. Place roast in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow glass bowl. Combine 2/3 cup of broth, lemon juice, oil, onions, bay leaves, thyme, salt and pepper; pour over roast. Seal bag or cover; refrigerate overnight, turning occasionally. Place roast, fat side up, in a shallow roasting pan; pour marinade over. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 2 to 2-1/2 hour or until a thermometer reads 160°-170°. Remove roast to a serving platter; keep warm. Skim and discard fat from juices in roasting pan. Remove bay leaves. Combine cornstarch and water until smooth; stir into pan juices. Add remaining broth. Bring to a boil over medium heat; boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly. Serve with roast.

Steps:

• Drain the potatoes. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a 12-inch cast-iron skillet over high heat until very hot, about 2 minutes. Add the potatoes and cook, stirring occasionally, until they start to become tender and are just beginning to brown around the edges, about 5 minutes.
• Sprinkle the pork chops with salt and pepper. Move the potatoes to the far edge of the pan, leaving a space to brown the pork chops. Add the pork chops to the pan and cook until browned, 2 to 3 minutes per side. As the pork chops cook, give the potatoes an occasional stir so they continue to brown evenly. Place the pork chops on top of the potatoes, shingling them to leave as much room in the pan as possible. Reduce the heat to low and add the remaining tablespoon of oil to the bare area of the pan. Add the olives, capers, garlic and thyme and cook, stirring continuously, until fragrant and golden, 1 to 2 minutes.
• Increase the heat to medium, add the tomatoes and wine and cook until reduced by half, 2 to 3 minutes, then stir in the chicken broth. Put the pork chops in the sauce and carefully nestle the potatoes around them. Cook 3 to 5 minutes more until the pork chops register 145 degrees F in the center on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the pork chops from the sauce and transfer to shallow bowls or a serving platter. Taste the sauce and season with additional salt and pepper if needed. If most of the liquid in the pan evaporates while you are cooking the pork, stir in tablespoons of water at a time to get it back to a saucy consistency. If the sauce is a little thin and weak, after you take the chops out, turn the heat up and cook 1 to 2 minutes more to thicken and concentrate the flavors. Stir the parsley into the sauce, remove the thyme sprigs, spoon the sauce over the chops and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F. Season the roast very generously with salt and pepper, and then dust lightly with the flour.
• Put a Dutch oven over medium-high heat, and then add the olive oil. When the oil is hot, add the roast, and brown deeply on all sides, about 4 minutes per side.
• Remove the roast to a platter. Stir in the vinegar, shallots, celery, carrots, parsnips and garlic, and then set the roast on top of the vegetables. Pour the chicken stock and bourbon around the meat, cover, and roast in the oven for 2 hours.
• Transfer the roast to a cutting board. Spoon the vegetables and pan juices onto a large serving platter. Slice the roast, arrange the meat on top of the vegetables, and serve family style.

Steps:

• In a bowl, form a paste using the vegetable oil, mustard, caraway seeds, garlic powder, salt, and pepper. Rub over the pork roast, and let sit about 30 minutes.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Arrange the onions in the bottom of a large roasting pan. Pour in the beer. Place the roast, fat side down, on top of the onions. Cover the pan with foil.
• Roast 1 hour in the preheated oven. Remove foil, turn roast, and score the fat. Continue roasting 2 1/2 hours, or to a minimum internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove from heat, reserving pan juices, and let sit about 20 minutes before slicing thinly.
• In a saucepan, bring the reserved pan juices to a boil. Mix in the butter and cornstarch to thicken, reduce heat, and simmer 5 to 10 minutes. Serve with the sliced pork.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 400 degrees.
• Place pork roast in a shallow metal pan.
• Combine honey and Dijon mustard.
• Coat top and sides of roast with this mixture.
• Sprinkle garlic powder and rosemary over entire coated surface.
• Roast meat for 15 minutes at 400 degrees, remove from oven and add 1/3 cup water to the bottom of the pan.
• Reduce heat to 325 degrees and roast meat for 35 minutes per pound or until meat thermometer reaches 175 degrees.
• Check roast occasionally and add a little more water to pan to keep honey drippings from scorching.
• When meat is done, remove from oven and place on carving board.
• Scrape pan and pour juices into a saucepan.
• Add 1/2 cup water, 1/2 beef bouillon cube, salt and pepper to taste.
• Add Marsala, if desired, and simmer long enough to cook away the alcohol smell.

• Slice pork roast and serve with sauce.

Steps:

• 1. Place Pork Loin fat side down in a 9 x 13 pan and arrange vegetables around it.
• 2. In a small bowl mix Garlic powder, onion powder, seasoned salt and black pepper until combined and rub it onto the pork (top only, not the bottom).
• 3. Sprinkle the parsley on top, and then the garlic. Drizzle the olive oil over top of the pork. You can season the vegetables as well, I recommend to. Just sprinkle all of the same dry seasonings over top.
• 4. Add beef broth from one of the corners of the pan, do not pour over pork. Place foil, slightly vented, over the pork, and fitting the pan. Cook it on 325 for 2 1/2 hours. Midway through rotate the pork so it it fat side up and replace the foil so it is covered again.
• 5. After its done take the foil off and put the broiler on HIGH. Flip the pork again to meat side up and broil for 10 minutes. You will do this twice (meat side up, 10 mins, fat side up 10 mins, and then meat side up one last time for 10 mins.) For a total of 30 minutes You may need a few mins longer depending on your oven. Just look to see how browned its getting.
• 6. Let meat rest for 30 minutes.
• 7. Enjoy! The vegetables will have an incredible flavor and so will the meat.
• **You may add more veggies but You'll probably have to go with a bigger pan size.
• **If you'd really like to kick it up, make a roux and add PAN JUICES and some red wine and let it reduce, stirring often to make a nice gravy!

Steps:

• Cut tiny slits in the roast and push in some garlic.
• Place roast in small oven cooking bag.
• Combine chicken broth, all the lemon juice, oil, onion, bay leaves, thyme, and pepper; pour over roast.
• Put tie around bag, refrigerate overnight, and turn occasionally.
• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• Remove bag from refrigerator, put into pan, and roast for 20 minutes per pound, or until a meat thermometer reads 145 degrees.
• Remove roast from bag-cover with foil and let rest.
• Skim and discard fat from juices in roasting pan.
• Remove both bay leaves.
• Put liquid into 3 quart saucepan and heat up over medium setting.
• Put cornstarch and cold water into small jar, put lid on, and shake it up.
• Add cornstarch mixture to liquid in saucepan.
• Bring to a boil and boil for 2 minutes, stirring constantly.
• Season with salt to your taste.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• For the pork: Mix together the mustard and apple cider and brush all sides of the pork loin and ribs with the mixture. Liberally sprinkle the pork loin and ribs with the smoked paprika, 1 tablespoon salt and 2 tablespoons cracked black pepper. Add some oil to a cast-iron skillet or roasting pan, then place the rack of ribs, curved-side down, in the skillet and place the loin, fat-side up, on top of the ribs. Roast until the internal temperature of the loin reaches 145 degrees F, about 30 minutes.
• While the pork begins to roast, cut the carrots, parsnips, potatoes and turnips into wedges using an oblique cut: Place a vegetable on a cutting board and hold your knife at a 45-degree angle to the vegetable. Cutting roughly 1-inch slices on the diagonal, roll the vegetable a quarter turn toward you each time you make a cut so you're cutting point to point until the vegetable is completely cut. Add the carrots, parsnips, potatoes, turnips, garlic and thyme to the skillet with the pork roast. Drizzle with some olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Return the skillet to the oven and continue to cook until the loin reaches 145 degrees F.
• Transfer the pork loin to a cutting board to rest and tent with foil. Return the skillet to the oven and cook until the ribs and vegetables are cooked through, about 30 minutes.
• Remove the skillet from the oven, transfer the vegetables to a platter and transfer the ribs to a cutting board.
• For the pan gravy: Heat the same skillet over medium heat. Add the flour and whisk until it absorbs the fat in the skillet. Slowly whisk in the cider and 1 cup water and bring to a simmer, whisking constantly to smooth out any lumps, until the sauce thickens slightly, about 2 minutes. Stir in the parsley and set aside.
• Cut the rack of ribs into individual ribs and scatter over the roasted vegetables. Slice the pork loin and shingle onto the platter. Spoon the pan gravy over the top and serve.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Grind the fennel seeds, peppercorns and salt in a spice grinder. Place the pork shoulder into a roasting pan and cut the rind into cross hatches. Rub the spice mixture into the meat and put it in the oven for 4 hours.
• Arrange the potatoes around and under the meat and put it back into the oven for 1 hour.
• Now add the garlic, shallots and carrots around the pork. If your roasting pan is not large enough to accommodate all the vegetables, place them in a separate roasting pan. Cook for 30 minutes, then add the pears. They don't need much cooking time and will disintegrate if cooked too long. Cook for another 30 minutes
• When the meat is tender and flakes with a fork, remove it and the vegetables and keep warm. This will give the pork time to rest and become more tender. If the pork rind is not crispy, put it under the broiler for a few minutes until it is really crunchy and crispy.
• To make the gravy, pour off all but 1 tablespoon of the fat from the roasting pan. Stir the flour into the roasting pan, add the wine, put the roasting pan onto a burner over medium-high heat and cook until the wine is reduced by half. If not using the wine, do this with the stock. Now add the stock and scrape off any bits of meat and vegetable on the bottom of the pan. Taste and add any seasoning if you think it needs it.
• If the gravy is too thin, make a paste in a bowl with 1 tablespoon and 1 tablespoon flour. Add some of the hot gravy to the small bowl and stir. Add this to the hot stock, stirring constantly and bring to a boil. The gravy will thicken slightly.
• If your gravy is too thick, just add a touch more stock. Serve the meat and vegetables with the gravy.
• This dish struggles to make it to the table as the family descends upon it while I am trying to finish the gravy! Use any leftovers for pork sandwiches with some crunchy pickle.

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350°F.
• In a small bowl, stir together flour, salt and pepper. Dust roast with seasoned flour, patting off excess.
• Pour oil into a heavy-bottomed Dutch oven with a tight-fitting lid over medium-high heat. When oil faintly smokes, add roast. Turn to brown on all sides, 8-10 minutes. Remove meat to a plate and set aside. Remove 1 tbsp of drippings and discard the rest.
• Add diced onion and celery to drippings in pot. Saute until onion softens and both are translucent, 3-5 minutes. Add garlic and saute 1 minute or until fragrant. Add tomato paste and herbs and cook, stirring frequently, 3 minutes until tomato begins to brown.
• Add wine, stirring to loosen any fond (browned bits) on the bottom of the pot. Simmer 5 minutes, or until wine reduces by at least 2/3.
• Add carrots, potatoes and pearl onions. Return meat to pot and add broth. Heat to simmering.
• Cover tightly and transfer to oven. Bake, covered, 2 hours. Carefully remove lid and bake another 30 minutes, or until beef is fork-tender. Skim off and discard any accumulated fat.
• Transfer beef to a clean platter and rest, tented with foil, 10 minutes before serving. Adjust seasoning of sauce with salt and pepper to taste. Serve with vegetables and gravy alongside.

Steps:

• Heat oil in a large skillet (12 or 15 inches) and brown chops on both sides over moderate heat, about 15 minutes. Remove chops. If necessary, prepare chops in 2 batches.
• Add mushrooms to skillet and saute until lightly browned. Add wine and stir to loosen all brown bits from bottom. Empty mushrooms and wine into a bowl and mix with tomatoes, onions, garlic, parsley and reduced chicken stock.
• Return all chops to skillet (making 2 layers, if necessary) and pour mixture in bowl over them. Season very lightly with salt and pepper, cover skillet securely and cook over very low heat about 2 hours, or until meat is almost but not quite falling off the bone.
• Remove chops to serving platter and keep warm. Raise heat under skillet and boil contents hard, stirring constantly, until the mixture has a viscous, saucelike consistency. Pour over chops and serve.

Steps:

• Place pork, potatoes, green beans, onion, garlic, thyme & pepper in a 4-qt slow cooker.
• Dissolved beef bouillon cubes or base in 3 cups warm water. Pour over ingredients already in cooker.
• Cook on low 8-10 hours or high 4-5 hours.
• Mix 1/2 cup water & 1/4 cup cornstarch & add to slow cooker; stir to mix.
• Recover slow cooker. If cooking on low, switch to high. Cook for an additional 30 minutes to thicken.
• **Check the beef broth/bouillon for potential gluten-containing ingredients. If the product is made in the U.S. or Canada, the source of things like maltodrextrin will tell if it comes from wheat. If the source is outside the U.S. or Canada, assume the product contains wheat. Two cans of beef broth can be substituted for the water + beef bouillon/base. Add 1/2-1 tsp salt. Use 1/2 cup broth + 1/4 cup cornstarch to thicken.
