PORK ROAST WITH ROASTED JALAPEñO GRAVY



Pork Roast With Roasted Jalapeño Gravy image

Eddie Hernandez, who runs Taqueria del Sol, a string of easygoing Mexican restaurants in Georgia and Tennessee, considers himself a born-again Southern boy whose food reflects a mash-up of the two cultures. He grew up in a working-class neighborhood in Monterrey, Mexico, where a pork roast like this would have never made it onto the table. But he came to love the roast's role in a traditional Southern Sunday supper, and decided to give it his own Mexican twist. It has become one of the most popular specials at his restaurants. The granulated garlic and onion are essential to the flavor. The roast cooks fast in a hot oven that crisps the fat. The residual oven heat roasts the jalapeños while the meat rests. Once you make the roux, the rich gravy for the dish comes together quickly.

Time 1h15m

Yield 8 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon ground black pepper
1 tablespoon granulated garlic
1 tablespoon granulated onion
2 1/2 to 3 pounds boneless pork loin, with a good layer of fat on it
3 tablespoons butter
4 tablespoons plus 2 teaspoons all-purpose flour
2 jalapeños
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 cup half-and-half
2 cups pork stock or chicken stock, preferably homemade
1 teaspoon salt, plus more as needed

Steps:

  • Heat oven to 475 degrees. Mix together salt, pepper, granulated garlic and onion. Place the pork on a rack set in a roasting pan and sprinkle the roast with the spice mixture, rubbing it lightly so it adheres to the meat.
  • Roast for 30 to 40 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees. If the fat begins to get too dark, tent with foil.
  • While the roast is cooking, make a roux for the gravy by melting the butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat. Add the flour all at once and whisk vigorously until smooth. When the mixture thins and starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, whisking slowly, until the mixture smells nutty and toasty and is still light colored. Cook for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally, then set aside and let cool.
  • When the roast is done, cover and let it rest for at least 10 minutes. Reduce the oven to 450 degrees. Place the jalapeños in a small pan, brush with oil and roast for 6 minutes, or until soft. Remove the stems and some or all of the seeds and membranes, depending on how hot the peppers are and how hot you want the gravy. Dice the jalapeños.
  • Place the half-and-half, stock, salt and jalapeños in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Quickly reduce heat to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the roux and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, whisking continually, until the sauce is thickened and bubbly. Stir in a little more roux if needed to reach the desired thickness and, if desired, any accumulated juices from the roast. Slice the roast, cover in gravy and serve.

JALAPENO POT ROAST



Jalapeno Pot Roast image

This is a favorite in my family. The jalapenos add a good flavor to the meat and it's not hot at all. Just throw it in the crockpot,go out to play and when you come home fix a couple of quick side dishes ( we have mashed potatoes and green beans) and you are ready to eat. Enjoy :-) Hint: Drain the onions from the crockpot to eat with the roast. Also thicken up the juices from the roast with a little cornstarch to make a gravy for your roast and potatoes. I found this recipe on a slow cooker website.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of beef: Chuck roast, shoulder roast, or rump roast are all good options for pot roast. These cuts are tough, but they become tender when cooked slowly in liquid.
  • Brown the beef before cooking: Browning the beef adds flavor and helps to develop a rich gravy.
  • Use a flavorful liquid: Beef broth, chicken broth, or even water can be used as the cooking liquid. Add some herbs, spices, and vegetables to the liquid for extra flavor.
  • Cook the pot roast slowly: The key to a tender pot roast is to cook it slowly. Cook the roast for at least 8 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender.
  • Add vegetables and other ingredients: Vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, and onions are classic additions to pot roast. You can also add other ingredients such as mushrooms, tomatoes, or barley.
  • Thicken the gravy: Once the pot roast is cooked, you can thicken the gravy by adding a cornstarch slurry or by reducing the cooking liquid.

Conclusion:

Jalapeno pot roast is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a family dinner. The combination of tender beef, flavorful gravy, and spicy jalapenos is sure to please everyone. With a little planning and effort, you can make a pot roast that is sure to impress your friends and family.
