Southwestern Pork Roast Recipes

Steps:

• Cut roast in half. In a small bowl, combine the chili powder, brown sugar, cumin, salt, pepper and cayenne; rub over meat. Transfer to a 5-qt. slow cooker. Top with onion and chilies. Pour broth around meat., Cover and cook on low for 8-10 hours or until tender. Remove roast; cool slightly. Skim fat from cooking juices. Shred pork with two forks and return to slow cooker; heat through. Serve on rolls, 1/2 cup on each.

Steps:

• Put the pork roast into the slow cooker.
• Combine the remaining ingredients and pour over the pork.
• Cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 6 hours or until the pork is tender.

Steps:

• Combine the first six ingredients; rub over the roast. Cover and refrigerate overnight. Place roast fat side up on a rack in a shallow roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1-1/4 to 1-1/2 hours or until a thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 475 degrees.
• Rub the pork all over with the cut clove of garlic. Discard the garlic. Set the meat on a rack in a roasting pan.
• Remove the stems from two anchos and place the chilies in a blender jar. Chop and grind them to a fairly fine powder. Transfer this to a small mixing bowl.
• Stir in the chili powder, cayenne, oregano, thyme, cumin, garlic powder, coriander and celery salt. Stir until completely mixed. Remove a half-cup of the mixture and set aside for sauce. Rub the remainder all over the roast to coat completely.
• Set the roast in the oven and cook for 30 minutes. Transfer the meat from the oven onto a wire rack to cool for 30 minutes. It will still be raw in the center, but the cooking will be finished later; this cooling period will guarantee even cooking and very tender meat. Reduce the oven temperature to 375 degrees.
• While the roast is cooking, start the sauce. Cook the bacon in a large skillet over low heat to render the fat. Remove the bacon from the pan and reserve. Drain off all but about two tablespoons of the fat. Add the minced garlic and saute for one minute. Add the red and green peppers, poblano, ancho, tomatoes and onion. Sprinkle the reserved spice mixture over the vegetables and cook over medium heat, stirring frequently, until they are soft, about 15 minutes. Pour the red wine over the vegetables and cook until the mixture is reduced to just a glaze. Pour in the veal stock and continue cooking over medium heat until the liquid is reduced by about half, about 15 minutes. Crumble the reserved bacon into the sauce. Keep it warm while finishing the roast.
• Return the pork roast to the oven at 375 degrees. Cook 20 to 25 minutes, until a meat thermometer inserted in the center reads 137 degrees. Remove from the oven and transfer to a rack. Let cool slightly before slicing into medallions.
• Serve the roast on a pool of the vegetable sauce, with corn pudding on the side.

Steps:

• Place a rack in the center of the oven and heat to 350 degrees.
• Place the garlic and jalapeno in the bowl of a food processor. Pulse 10 times to coarsely chop. Add onion, and pulse 10 more times. Add the bell pepper and cilantro and pulse 10 more times. There should be about 3 cups vegetables chopped medium fine.
• Combine all of the ingredients.
• Divide the mixture into 4 equal parts. Form into mounded ovals that do not touch in a 9-by-13-inch heatproof glass pan.
• Bake for 30 minutes. (Meat temperature can be checked with a thermometer; it should be 145 degrees.) Remove from oven, and let rest 5 minutes. Using a pancake turner, remove each loaf and serve.

Steps:

• 1.Arrange pork in slow cooker. Combine remaining ingredients; pour over pork. 2.Cook covered on LOW 8 to 10 hours or HIGH 4 to 6 hours or until pork is tender. Serve, if desired, with hot cooked noodles or rice.

Cover and cook until peppers are crisp tender and pork is cooked through, about 5 minutes. Add tomato, green onions, and cilantro; cover and cook until heated through, abut 1 minute.
