2 1/2 pounds pork shoulder, (trimmed of visible fat, cut into 1 inch cubes)
1/2 cup all-purpose flour
salt
black pepper
2-4 tablespoons vegetable oil
4 slices bacon, (chopped)
1 large onion, (diced)
1 tablespoon garlic, (minced)
2 cups carrots, (cut into 1/2 inch pieces)
1 cup celery,

1 cup parsnips, (peeled and diced)
2-3 tablespoons parsley, (chopped)

Steps:

  • In a mixing bowl, toss the pork with the flour, 2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon black pepper to coat evenly, shaking off excess.
  • Heat 2 tablespoons of oil, over medium-high heat, in a large pot and brown pork in batches without crowding it, about 7-9 minutes. Add more oil as needed. Transfer browned meat to a bowl with a slotted spoon and set aside. Remove and discard pan drippings.
  • Cook the bacon in the same pot, stirring frequently until crispy. Transfer to bowl with pork.
  • Reduce heat to medium and saute onion, garlic, carrots, and celery, in bacon drippings, stirring occasionally, until soft.
  • Add wine to the pot, continue to simmer, scraping up brown bits on the bottom of the pot until liquid is almost evaporated.
  • Add beef broth, tomato paste, browned pork, bacon, thyme, rosemary, bay leaves, 1 teaspoon salt, and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper. Bring to a boil, then reduce heat to low and simmer, covered for 45 minutes.
  • Stir in prunes, potatoes and parsnips then cover and cook for 45 minutes, stirring occasionally to prevent sticking. If you'd like the stew thinner, add more beef broth or water to achieve desired consistency. Adjust salt and pepper as needed. Ladle into individual bowls, garnish with parsley and serve.

BAECKEOFFE / LAUNDRY DAY STEW OF BEEF, PORK, AND LAMB



Baeckeoffe / Laundry Day Stew of Beef, Pork, and Lamb image

Provided by Hubert Keller

Categories     Soup/Stew     Christmas     Winter     Christmas Eve     Mandoline

Yield Serves 10

Number Of Ingredients 15

2 medium yellow onions, finely chopped
2 small leeks, white and pale green parts, finely chopped
1 large carrot, peeled and finely chopped
2 or 3 cloves garlic, very finely chopped
2 bay leaves
1 teaspoon whole juniper berries
1 1/2 teaspoons finely chopped fresh thyme
3 tablespoons finely chopped fresh flatleaf parsley
3 cups (one 750-milliliter bottle) dry white wine, such as an Alsatian pinot gris, plus more, if needed, for the pot
1 pound boneless beef chuck roast, cut into 1¼-inch chunks
1 pound boneless pork butt, trimmed and cut into 1¼-inch chunks
1 pound boneless lamb shoulder, trimmed and cut into 1¼ inch cubes
Sea salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon extra-virgin olive oil
4 pounds Russet potatoes, peeled

Steps:

  • In a large bowl or very large plastic bag with a secure seal, mix together the onions, leeks, carrot, garlic, bay leaves, juniper berries, thyme, parsley, wine, beef, pork, lamb, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and 1 teaspoon pepper. Mix well, seal, and refrigerate for at least 12 hours and up to 24 hours. Mix the meats and marinade occasionally; if they are in a bag, just turn it over once or twice.
  • When ready to cook, preheat the oven to 350°. Smear the olive oil all over the bottom of a 6- or 8-quart Dutch oven.
  • Peel the potatoes if you like; using a mandoline, slice them thinly and season well with salt and pepper. Do not wash the potatoes after slicing. The potato starch thickens the broth. Cover the bottom of the pot with half of them. Strain the solids and meat from the marinade, reserving both separately. Spread the meats and vegetables on top of the potatoes and then top with the remaining potatoes. Carefully pour the reserved marinade over the potatoes. If the liquid does not cover the top of the potatoes, add more wine or water until they are just covered.
  • Cover the pot and bring the stew to a gentle simmer on top of the stove. Place the pot in the oven and bake until the meats are very tender, about 3 1/2 hours. Serve, directly from the casserole, in warm, generously sized soup plates.

INSTANT POT PORK STEW WITH RED WINE AND OLIVES



Instant Pot Pork Stew With Red Wine and Olives image

Pork shoulder is one of the most glorious things to cook in an electric pressure cooker. The meat becomes velvety and suffused with rich, brawny juices. Here, red wine, tomatoes, rosemary and sage perfume the pork, while olives, stirred in at the end, give it brightness. This stew is even better cooked a day or two ahead, giving the flavors time to meld. Making it in advance also gives the fat a chance to solidify, so it's easy to remove before reheating. Then, if you like, you can reheat the stew in the electric pressure cooker using the sauté setting. Serve this over polenta or rice, or with good bread, to soak up the meaty sauce.

Categories     meat, main course

Time 1h30m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 pounds pork shoulder or pork stew meat, cut into 2-inch chunks
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt (Diamond Crystal), plus more as needed
3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper, plus more as needed
6 garlic cloves, grated, passed through a press or crushed into a paste
1 tablespoon chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
Large pinch of red-pepper flakes
1 teaspoon coriander seeds
Olive oil
1/2 cup dry red wine
1 (15-ounce) can whole peeled plum tomatoes
2 medium carrots, sliced 1/2-inch thick (about 1 cup)
1/2 cup pitted and torn green olives, such as Castelvetrano
Chopped parsley or basil, for serving

Steps:

  • Season the pork all over with the salt and pepper. In a large bowl, combine the pork, garlic, rosemary, sage and red-pepper flakes.
  • In a small dry skillet, toast the coriander seeds until fragrant, 1 to 2 minutes. Transfer to a mortar and pestle and coarsely crush (or do this on a cutting board with the side of a heavy knife). Add crushed seeds to the pork and toss well. Refrigerate for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
  • Set the pressure cooker to the sauté function on medium. Add 1 tablespoon oil and let it get hot for a few seconds, then add enough pork chunks to fit comfortably in one layer with a little space around each piece. Let brown for 2 to 3 minutes per side, then transfer the cubes to a plate. Add a little more oil if the pot looks dry and continue browning the rest of the pork.
  • Add the wine to the pot and let simmer, scraping the browned bits from the bottom, until it reduces by half, about 2 minutes. Using kitchen shears or your hands, break the tomatoes into pieces and add them, along with their liquid, to the pot. Return pork to the pot, stir in carrots and 1/2 cup water.
  • Seal the pot and cook on high pressure for 45 minutes. Let the pressure release naturally.
  • Using a slotted spoon, transfer pork to a serving platter. Use a fat separator to separate the fat from the juices, or just spoon the fat off the top. (There may be a lot of fat.) If the sauce seems thin, use the sauté function to simmer it until it thickens. Stir in olives, then taste the sauce and add more salt, if you like.
  • Spoon the sauce over the pork, then top with chopped parsley or basil and serve.

Tips:

  • To make the most of the flavors in this stew, use a variety of vegetables. Carrots, celery, and onions are all classic choices, but you can also add potatoes, turnips, or parsnips.
  • Choose a good quality beef and pork stew meat. Look for meat that is well-marbled, as this will help to keep it moist and flavorful during cooking.
  • Brown the meat before adding it to the stew. This will help to develop the flavor and give the stew a richer color.
  • Use a good quality beer or ale in the stew. This will add a depth of flavor that is hard to achieve with other liquids.
  • Simmer the stew for at least 1 hour, or until the meat is tender and the vegetables are cooked through.
  • Serve the stew with a side of crusty bread or mashed potatoes.

Conclusion:

Bunkhouse beef and pork stew is a hearty and flavorful dish that is perfect for a cold winter night. It is easy to make and can be tailored to your own taste preferences. With a few simple tips, you can make a delicious and satisfying stew that your family and friends will love.
