STUFFED CROWN ROAST OF PORK

A savory sausage stuffing accompanies this royal crown roast of a pork. It's fit for a king!

Categories     Main Dish Recipes     Pork     Pork Roast Recipes

Yield 10

Number Of Ingredients 12

3 tablespoons butter
¾ cup chopped onion
¼ cup chopped celery
½ cup peeled, cored and chopped tart apple
½ cup fresh bread crumbs
1 pound ground pork
½ pound ground seasoned pork sausage
½ cup chopped parsley
½ teaspoon dried sage
1 ½ teaspoons salt
1 ½ teaspoons ground black pepper
9 pounds crown pork roast

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
  • To Make Stuffing: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When foam subsides add onion and saute, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Stir in celery and apples; saute (without browning) about 5 minutes longer. Scrape skillet contents into a large mixing bowl. Add bread crumbs, ground pork, sausage meat, parsley, sage, salt and pepper. Mix together gently but thoroughly. (Note: Do not taste the uncooked stuffing, for it contains raw pork; instead, fry a small ball of the stuffing in the skillet, then taste and season with more salt and pepper as necessary).
  • Fill the center of the crown with the stuffing, mounding it slightly. Cover it with a round of aluminum foil and wrap the ends of the chop bones in strips of foil to prevent them from charring and snapping off.
  • Place the crown on a rack in a shallow roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably, and roast in the center of the oven, undisturbed, for about 3 hours or until internal temperature of meat is 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). (Note: 30 minutes before pork is done, remove the foil from the top of the stuffing to allow the top to brown.)
  • Carefully transfer the crown to a large, heated, circular platter, strip the foil from the ends of the chops and replace it with paper frills. Let the crown rest for about 10 minutes before carving and serving. To Carve Pork: Insert a large fork in the side of the crown to steady it and, with a large, sharp knife, cut down through each rib to detach the chops. Two chops per person is a customary portion accompanied by a generous serving of the stuffing.

THE ULTIMATE PORK CROWN ROAST



The Ultimate Pork Crown Roast image

Provided by Tyler Florence

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h45m

Yield 12 to14 servings

Number Of Ingredients 32

1/2 bunch thyme, leaves only
1/2 bunch fresh sage, leaves only
2 cloves garlic, gently smashed and paper removed
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
Extra-virgin olive oil
10 pounds pork rib roast (about 12 to 14 ribs)
Apple Pecan Stuffing, recipe follows
Gravy, recipe follows
Watercress, for garnish, optional
3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil, plus extra for finishing
1/2 bunch fresh sage
1/2 bunch fresh thyme
1 large Spanish onion, thinly sliced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
3 Granny Smith apples, peeled and diced
1 1/2 cups raw pecans
2 eggs
3/4 cup heavy cream
1 1/2 cups low-sodium chicken stock
5 cups sourdough bread (crusts removed), hand-torn into 1-inch pieces
1/4 bunch fresh flat-leaf parsley, roughly chopped
2 medium carrots, roughly chopped
1 large onion, roughly chopped
3 ribs celery, roughly chopped
1 medium turnip, peeled and roughly chopped
1 large Granny Smith apple, peeled, cored and chopped
1 clove garlic, peeled
Extra-virgin olive oil
2 tablespoons all-purpose flour
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 cup apple liqueur (recommended: Calvados)
4 cups low-sodium chicken stock

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Set rack on the bottom third of the oven so the roast will fit completely inside.
  • In a small mixing bowl or mortar and pestle, combine thyme, sage, garlic, and salt and pepper, to taste, and mash to break up herbs and garlic. Add oil, about 1 cup, and combine with pestle.
  • Take crown roast of pork and if your butcher hasn't already prepared it, clean the bones of meat with a boning knife (French them) and make a small cut into the meat in between each rib so you can wrap it into a circle easily; save the scraps. Rub the pork all over with the herb mixture. With the ribs on the outside, wrap the rack around onto itself so the ends meet and secure with kitchen twine so it holds its crown shape. *Cook's note: if you are doing this by yourself, using a skewer to help hold its shape while you wrap the kitchen twine around the roast.
  • Place in a roasting pan. Add the scraps into the bottom of the pan alongside the roast. This will help add flavor to your sauce. Set aside to bring the pork to room temperature prior to cooking.
  • Fill the cavity with Apple Pecan Stuffing.
  • Cover the stuffing and the tips of the rib bones with foil then place the whole roast in the oven and bake for 2 hours and 20 minutes, an instant-read thermometer inserted near the bone should register 150 degrees F when done. About 30 to 45 minutes prior to doneness, remove the foil to brown the stuffing and create a crust. Remove from the oven, loosely cover with foil and allow to rest for 30 minutes before cutting. Serve with Apple Pecan Stuffing and Gravy. Garnish with watercress, if desired.
  • Set a large saute pan over medium heat and add olive oil, sage and thyme sprigs. As the oil heats up the herbs will crackle and fry, infusing the oil. Remove the sage and thyme and set aside on a paper towel to drain - these can be as a garnish, if desired. Add onions to the pan and cook over medium heat for 15 minutes until caramelized. Season with salt and pepper. Remove onions from pan and add apples. Crush the pecans and add to the pan. Add more oil, if needed and season with salt and pepper. Gently saute until pecans are lightly toasted and apples are just cooked slightly - about 3 to 5 minutes. In a large mixing bowl whisk together egg, cream, chicken stock, and salt and pepper, to taste. Add torn sourdough, caramelized onions, apples, pecans and chopped parsley. Using a wooden spoon, mix the stuffing until well combined.
  • Place carrots, onion, celery, turnip, apple and garlic in a food processor and pulse until you have a coarse textured puree. Once roasting pan comes out of the oven (and meat is removed) set it over medium-high heat on the stove. Add a 2-count of olive oil then add vegetable puree. Sweat for 7 to 8 minutes until most of the moisture has cooked off, then dust with flour. Cook for 2 more minutes stirring well to incorporate all the flour with the fat in the pan. Add the apple liqueur and scrape the bottom of the pan. Gradually add chicken stock, stirring as you go to ensure there are no lumps. Bring to a simmer and season well with salt and pepper. Simmer then remove from heat and strain through a sieve - it's okay if some of the pulp goes through as this will naturally add body to the gravy.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK WITH CHESTNUT SAUSAGE STUFFING



Crown Roast of Pork with Chestnut Sausage Stuffing image

Provided by Nancy Fuller

Categories     main-dish

Time 3h30m

Yield 12 to 16 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

Two 8-chop racks of pork (about 5 pounds each)
3 tablespoons olive oil
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
1 tablespoon kosher salt
2 teaspoons freshly ground black pepper
3 cups Chestnut and Sausage Stuffing, recipe follows
One 1-pound loaf country white bread, cut or torn into 1-inch pieces
1 pound bulk Italian pork sausage
4 cloves garlic, smashed and roughly chopped
2 stalks celery, diced
1 medium bulb fennel, diced
1 medium yellow onion, diced
4 tablespoons unsalted butter, plus additional for buttering casserole dish
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 cup chopped fresh Italian parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
1 tablespoon chopped fresh thyme
2 cups jarred whole roasted and peeled chestnuts, roughly chopped
2 1/2 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • Place a rack in the lower third of the oven and preheat the oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Lay the racks of pork on a cutting board with the ribs curving upward. Cut 1/2-inch deep slits in the meat between each rib bone. Stand the racks up back to back, fat sides touching, with the meaty-sides down and the concave curve of the ribs facing upward.
  • Thread a trussing needle with kitchen string and use it to pierce between the upper third of the two last rib bone ends and tie them together; repeat in the lower third of the last two rib bone ends to tie them together. Repeat on the other end of the racks. Shape the tied meat into an oval, bending where the slits are, to make a crown. Tie a string around the entire meaty bottom of the pork below the other two ties, securing the racks together so they hold their shape.
  • Transfer the pork to a roasting pan or low-sided braiser. Rub the pork with the olive oil and season with the rosemary, salt and pepper. Fill the center of the roast with Chestnut and Sausage Stuffing, then transfer to the oven.
  • Roast the pork until the internal temperature in the thickest part of the meat reads 140 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer, about 1 hour 45 minutes,. Transfer to a cutting board or serving platter and let rest for 20 minutes. Pull out all the string ties, then carve into chops and serve with the stuffing.
  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Arrange the bread pieces in a single layer on a baking sheet and toast until lightly golden and dry, about 10 minutes. Transfer to a large mixing bowl.
  • In a large skillet over medium heat, cook the sausage until browned and no pink remains, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic, celery, fennel and onions to the sausage pan. Add the butter and some salt and pepper. Stir to combine the vegetables and cook until they are softened, 8 to 10 minutes. Next, add the parsley, sage and thyme.
  • In the mixing bowl with the golden bread chunks, add the chestnuts and chicken broth. Add the sausage mixture and stir to combine. If filling the crown roast of pork, the stuffing is ready to use at this point.
  • Alternately, butter a 2-quart casserole dish and spoon the stuffing into the dish. Cover the dish with foil and bake until golden brown, 30 minutes.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK AND STUFFING



Crown Roast of Pork and Stuffing image

An eye and taste pleaser for any special occasion. It looks so impressive wearing the little socks - take time to make them or buy the ready made. The stuffing compliments the pork flavor. You may make the socks out of foil or I prefer colored tissue paper. Cut strips of paper approx 2 1/2 " wide by 10" long, roll the paper into a cylinder and with scissors cut down 1 1/2 " on one edge of the cylinder spacing cuts1/4" apart. wrap the uncut ends around each bone and secure with thin wire or fine thread.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

7 lbs rib roast, approx (16 ribs)
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper
6 tablespoons margarine (do not use butter as it will brown too much)
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
6 cups dry breadcrumbs
2 cups apples, peeled cored and diced (use a sweeter apple like a macIntosh)
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
1 tablespoon parsley flakes

  • Add crumbs, apples, poultry seasoning, parsley flakes, 1 cup of apple juice, season with salt and pepper.
  • Add a bit more juice if needed.
  • The stuffing should be moist enough to hold together when squeezed lightly.
  • After you have roasted the meat for 2 hours, remove it from the oven.
  • Turn it so the rib ends are pointing out when you stand it on edge (like to secure the joining ribs with a bit of wire).
  • Place a sleeve of tin foil in the center of the roast, have the foil large enough that you will be able to cover the stuffing by folding it over when filled.
  • Fill the sleeve with the stuffing, fold foil over.
  • Return the roast uncovered until the internal temp reaches 170F (apprx 1 1/2 hours).
  • Decorate the rib ends with gay colored socks (use colors to match the seasons or holiday) after you have removed it from the oven and are ready to serve.
  • **If, after stuffing the sleeve in the center of the roast, you have stuffing left over put it in a lightly greased casserole dish and put in the oven for the last 1 1/2 roasting time.

STUFFED CROWN ROAST OF PORK



Stuffed Crown Roast of Pork image

Provided by Geoffrey Zakarian

Categories     main-dish

Time 11h15m

Yield 6 to 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 26

2 tablespoons finely minced garlic
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh rosemary, plus whole sprigs, for roasting the pork
2 tablespoons Dijon mustard
2 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
One 12-bone pork rack, chine bone removed
Fresh sage sprigs, for roasting the pork
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 cup ground sweet Italian sausage
1/2 cup finely chopped carrots
1/2 cup finely chopped celery
1/2 cup finely chopped onions
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/2 teaspoon grated nutmeg
1/4 teaspoon allspice
3 cups diced cornbread (1/2-inch pieces)
1/2 cup finely chopped scallions
1/2 cup finely chopped apples
1/2 cup currants
2 tablespoons finely minced fresh sage
2 cups chicken stock (less or more depending on your preference), hot
6 cups heavy cream
1/2 cup finely minced apples
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1 sprig fresh sage, minced
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper

Steps:

  • For the crown roast: Mix the garlic and rosemary with the mustard and olive oil in a small bowl. Rub the pork with the mixture and marinate overnight.
  • The next day, rub the excess marinade off the pork. Tie both ends of the rack together by the bones to create a circle or "crown." Put the rosemary and sage sprigs on a sheet tray, and place the pork crown on top of the herbs.
  • Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
  • For the Italian sausage and cornbread stuffing: Heat the olive oil over a medium-high flame in a large Dutch oven until hot. Brown the sausage, then add the carrots, celery and onions. Cook over a medium flame, stirring constantly. Season with salt and pepper. When the vegetables are lightly browned, add the nutmeg and allspice and cook for 1 more minute. Add the cornbread and scallions, followed by the apples, currants and sage. Moisten the stuffing with the chicken stock as needed, just until it is moist but not mushy or falling apart. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Season the rack with salt and pepper. Stuff the stuffing into the center until the filling comes to the point of the meat meeting the bone. Roast until caramelized, 15 minutes. Reduce the heat to 350 degrees F and cook until the center of the pork registers 155 degrees F, another 2 hours.
  • For the dijonnaise: Meanwhile, heat the cream in a saucepan over medium heat until reduced by half. Whisk in the apples, mustard and sage. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Set the meat aside to rest for at least 10 minutes, and spoon the stuffing into a bowl. Slice the meat and serve with the dijonnaise.

1 teaspoon black pepper
1 1/2 tablespoons cider vinegar
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 (1-lb) piece fresh Pullman loaf, pain de mie, or country loaf, cut into 1-inch cubes, then pulsed to coarse crumbs in a food processor
3/4 lb ground pork (usually comes with crown roast, see below)
1 cup finely chopped celery
For roast
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh marjoram or thyme

For sauce
1/2 cup dry white wine
1 1/2 cups reduced-sodium chicken broth
2 teaspoons cornstarch, dissolved in 2 tablespoons water
2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter
Special Equipment
an instant-read thermometer

Steps:

  • Make stuffing:
  • Cook onions with 1 1/2 teaspoons salt in 3/4 stick butter in a 12-inch heavy skillet over moderate heat, covered, stirring occasionally, until tender, about 10 minutes. Continue to cook, uncovered, stirring frequently, until onions are pale golden, about 10 minutes more. Add sage, marjoram, and pepper and cook, stirring, 5 minutes. Add vinegar and wine and boil, stirring occasionally, until liquid is evaporated, then remove from heat.
  • Meanwhile, cook bread crumbs and remaining teaspoon salt in remaining 3/4 stick butter in a 12-inch nonstick skillet over moderately low heat, stirring, until golden and crisp, 15 to 20 minutes.
  • Reserve 1 cup onion mixture, covered and chilled, for sauce. Transfer remaining mixture to a large bowl and stir in ground pork, celery, and crumbs.
  • Cook roast and stuffing:
  • Put 1 oven rack in lower third of oven and another on bottom of oven and preheat oven to 350°F.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK WITH WILD RICE STUFFING



Crown Roast of Pork with Wild Rice Stuffing image

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 10

Two 10-chop racks of pork from rib-chop section, chine removed and frenched
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
1 to 2 tablespoons olive oil
Grated zest of 1 lemon
2 large cloves garlic, finely chopped
2 tablespoons chopped fresh flat-leaf parsley
1 tablespoon chopped fresh sage
Wild Rice Stuffing
Fresh rosemary sprigs, for garnish
Plums, for garnish

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place racks on a work surface. Using a sharp knife, cut a third of the way through the meat between every two rib chops. (This will help the roast bend and stand upright.) Using a trussing needle and cotton kitchen twine, tie the ends of one rack to the ends of the second rack, being sure that the meat side of each rack faces outward. Tie a second piece of twine around the crown directly below the rib bones. Season with salt and pepper; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
  • In a small bowl, combine olive oil, zest, garlic, parsley, and sage; rub herb mixture evenly over meat. Transfer roast to a flat rack placed in a large heavy-duty roasting pan.
  • Roast for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 375 degrees and continue roasting, rotating halfway through, until meat is well browned and an instant-read thermometer registers 140 to 150 degrees, about 2 hours 15 minutes. (Insert thermometer into meaty center of crown, avoiding any bone. Take several readings to ensure roast is cooked all over.)

Tips:

  • Use a flavorful stuffing to fill the center of the crown roast. This will add moisture and flavor to the meat.
  • Roast the crown roast in a preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 155 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the meat is cooked through but still juicy.
  • Let the crown roast rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
  • Serve the crown roast with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or stuffing.
