PHILLY (ITALIAN STYLE) HOT ROAST PORK SANDWICHES



PHILLY (Italian Style) Hot Roast Pork Sandwiches image

Philly is not only famous for cheesesteaks. Another famous favorite is Hot Roast Pork Sandwiches! After searching the web for the recipe and not finding it, I came up with this and the results were fabulous and authentic tasting. This is also delicious served as a main dish instead of for sandwiches...you may want to slice it thicker and add a side dish or two :)

Provided by Karen..

Categories     Lunch/Snacks

Time 1h35m

Yield 12 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 -3 1/2 lbs boneless pork roast
salt
fresh coarse ground black pepper
garlic powder
basil
italian seasoning or pizza seasoning
dehydrated dried garlic
water
10 -12 Italian rolls (or you can use French bread if Italian rolls are not available in your area, you want a crusty roll,)

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Place pork roast in a baking dish (I use a 9 x 13 inch glass pyrex dish).
  • Sprinkle generously with salt, pepper, garlic powder, basil, Italian seasoning and garlic flakes.
  • Roast in oven for about 15 minutes or until juices start running and fat starts to melt and brown in the bottom of the pan, then add water to about 1/2 inch up the pan.
  • Check every half hour or so and if water gets low, add a bit more to so it's about 1/2 inch up the pan every time.
  • Each time you add the water, pour some over the roast, so the top does not get too dry.
  • Roast until internal temperature reads 165-170 degrees (About an hour and a half TOTAL cooking time).
  • Trim all visible fat from roast and discard.
  • Slice roast very thin, in the pan if possible, so you don't lose any juices.
  • If all goes well, the juices/gravy at the bottom of the pan should look golden brown, with darker flecks of spices, garlic and some little pieces of meat.
  • Serve slices of pork on rolls, making sure that the slices have soaked up some of the juices (you can drizzle more juices on top, if you like, or you can thicken the gravy with water and cornstarch or flour, if desired).
  • Enjoy!

Philly Cheesesteak Grilled Cheese Sandwiches Recipe - (4.5/5) image

Provided by msippigrl

Number Of Ingredients 10

1 pound lean ground beef
1/2 teaspoon salt
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1 tablespoon Worcestershire sauce (I used French's)
1 small onion, julienned or chopped
Half a medium green bell pepper, julienned or chopped
Salt and black pepper, to taste
8 to 10 slices Provolone cheese (2 for each sandwich)
8 to 10 slices hearty, white bread (2 for each sandwich)
2 to 3 tablespoons salted butter or margarine, for the bread, softened or melted

Steps:

  • Brown the meat in a heavy skillet, breaking it up as it cooks. (Leave it a little chunky.) Stir in the salt, pepper and Worcestershire sauce. Remove meat from skillet. If needed, drain all except about 2 teaspoons of the excess grease from the skillet; add the chopped onions and bell pepper and cook just until tender and beginning to brown. Add a little salt and pepper. When the onions and bell pepper are done, add the meat back to the skillet and stir together. Remove from heat. Butter one side of enough bread slices to make 4 to 5 sandwiches. With the buttered sides down of 4 to 5 slices of bread, add a slice of cheese to each slice of bread. Top cheese with the meat mixture. Place another slice of cheese on top of the meat mixture. Cover each sandwich with a top slice of bread, buttered sides facing up. In a heavy, large skillet or griddle on medium heat, place the sandwiches and let cook for 3 to 5 minutes on each side, or until bread is browned and cheese is melted. Serve immediately and enjoy!
