We all have moments where we forget where we are in cooking and ruin a perfectly good roast by turning it as dry as the Sahara Desert.

Number Of Ingredients 5

1 over cooked, dry roast (pork, beef, chicken, turkey)
3 Tbsp olive oil
2 clove garlic (you may add more to taste)
salt (to taste)
pepper (to taste)

Steps:

  • 1. Cut your roast into chunks, removing any string, bones or other non-edible bits that may have been in the roasting process.
  • 2. Place in a food processor and process until it is a fine powder (2-3 minutes) making sure to stop to move chunks around to reach the blade as necessary.
  • 3. add garlic to the food processor and pulse until well mixed.
  • 4. add olive oil, one table spoon at a time until the mixture is the consistency of creamy peanut butter. (WARNING: It will look gray! But it is still delicious!)
  • 5. add salt and pepper to taste
  • 6. Use immediately as a potted meat spread on a sandwich (delicious with mustard and pickles) or place in a sealed container and rest in the refrigerator until firm and easy to slice. I put my chilled version out with a cheese and crackers platter, jalapeno slices, baby gherkins, olive slices (and even some spray cheese) for a fun pate-like treat!
