SAUSAGE AND APPLE STUFFED PORK ROAST



Sausage and Apple Stuffed Pork Roast image

Provided by Melissa d'Arabian : Food Network

Categories     main-dish

Time 1h55m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

1/2 pound mild Italian sausage (or 2 links, casings removed)
1 yellow onion, chopped
2 stalks celery, chopped
1 tart apple, peeled and diced
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 pieces white bread
2 teaspoons chopped fresh sage
2 teaspoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 teaspoon chopped fresh thyme
2 tablespoons butter
One 3-pound boneless pork loin
1 tablespoon vegetable oil
1/2 cup white wine

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
  • In a large saute pan over medium heat, saute the sausage until no longer pink. Remove the sausage (leave in the fat), and set aside. To the pan, add the onion, celery, and apple and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until the apple is no longer crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional couple of minutes. Remove from the heat, stir the sausage back in and set aside.
  • In a food processor, pulse the bread with the sage, rosemary, and thyme into coarse crumbs.
  • Heat the butter in a medium saute pan and cook the crumbs over medium-high heat until coated with butter and lightly toasted, about 3 minutes (be careful not to burn). Mix the breadcrumbs into the sausage mixture.
  • Prepare the roast as if making a jellyroll. Place the roast with the short side toward you, and fat facing down toward the counter or cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice the roast open at about 1/2-inch from the bottom of the roast (parallel to the cutting board), being careful not to cut all the way through. Continue cutting, unrolling the roast as you work until you have a large, thin piece of meat. Place the rolled out piece of meat between 2 sheets of waxed or parchment paper, and lightly pound with meat mallet to increase the meat surface area by 10 to 20 percent. Be careful not to pound through the meat. Salt and pepper the pork and top with the filling, spreading evenly across the pork, leaving a 1-inch margin around the perimeter.
  • Starting with the short side, roll up tightly jellyroll style, and secure the roast with kitchen twine.
  • Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add oil. Add the roast and brown on all sides. Place in a roasting pan fitted with a rack and add the wine in the bottom of the pan (to keep the juices from burning), and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the internal temperature hits 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the roast from the oven and allow to rest for a full 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 bone-in pork loin roast (3 1/2 pounds)
2 tablespoons Maldon sea salt
2 cloves garlic, coarsely chopped
2 tablespoons fresh, coarsely chopped marjoram leaves
5 Fuji apples, peeled, cored, and each cut into 8 wedges
2 whole cloves
1/2 cup Calvados
2 teaspoons sugar (optional)
Curtis Stone's Honey-Glazed Carrots, for serving

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 475 degrees.
  • Using a sharp knife, score fat that covers the top of pork. Rub pork fat with salt, garlic, and half of the marjoram leaves. Set a roasting rack in a heavy-bottomed roasting pan; set pork on rack. Transfer to oven and roast for 30 minutes.
  • Decrease oven temperature to 350 degrees, and continue roasting the pork until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the pork reaches 140 degrees, about 45 minutes more. Transfer pork to a cutting board, keep warm, and let rest 30 minutes.
  • Pour any pan juices into a small bowl and whisk together with remaining marjoram; cover to keep warm and set aside.
  • Meanwhile, heat apples and cloves in a medium saucepan over medium-high heat, stirring, until apples begin to soften, about 3 minutes. Reduce heat to low and add Calvados, continue stirring until most of the liquid has evaporated, about 5 minutes. Cover, and continue cooking apples, stirring occasionally, until apples are tender and most of the juices have evaporated, about 8 minutes.
  • Remove apple mixture from heat and, using a potato masher, coarsely mash apples. Stir in sugar, if using.
  • Thinly slice pork and drizzle over reserved pan juices and serve immediately with apples and carrots.

Tips:

  • Choose the right pork roast: Pork shoulder (also known as pork butt) is the best cut for this recipe as it's well-marbled and will become tender and juicy during the cooking process.
  • Use a flavorful apple cider: The apple cider adds a sweet and slightly tart flavor to the pork. Choose a high-quality apple cider that you enjoy the taste of.
  • Don't overcrowd the pan: Make sure that the pork roast is not touching the sides of the pan. This will allow the air to circulate and help the pork roast cook evenly.
  • Baste the pork roast regularly: Basting the pork roast with the apple cider-brown sugar mixture will help to keep it moist and add flavor.
  • Let the pork roast rest before serving: Letting the pork roast rest before serving will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.

Conclusion:

Apple pork roast is a classic fall dish that is easy to make and always a crowd-pleaser. The combination of sweet apples, savory pork, and tangy apple cider creates a delicious and comforting meal. Whether you serve it with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad, apple pork roast is sure to be a hit.
