FRANKIES SPUNTINO PORK BRACIOLE



Frankies Spuntino Pork Braciole image

Frank Castronovo and Frank Falcinelli, who own the Frankies Spuntino restaurants in New York, prefer to keep it mellow. "I cooked on the line for 18 years," Mr. Falcinelli told The Times. Mr. Castronovo, equally low-key, said, "We like to take the easy approach." That means many of their dishes, like vegetable antipasti, grilled meats and wine-stewed prunes, are cooked well ahead and assembled to order or served at room temperature. In this version of braciola, the meat rolls are covered with canned tomatoes that become sauce as the meat cooks. "My grandfather calls it gravy," Mr. Falcinelli said. "For the Sunday sauce, you do spareribs, sausage, meatballs, braciola." The Franks' version is lighter, meant to be eaten with salad and bread, not steaming pasta. Leftovers are good for sandwiches the following day.

Time 4h

Yield 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

3 pounds pork braciola cutlets (sliced from the shoulder and pounded into six 6-by-8-inch pieces about 1/4 inch thick)
Salt and white pepper to taste
2 tablespoons minced garlic, plus 8 to 10 large whole cloves
2/3 cup chopped flat-leaf parsley
1 cup grated Parmigiano-Reggiano cheese (more for serving)
1 cup grated aged provolone
2 28-ounce cans whole peeled San Marzano tomatoes, plus an extra can in case more sauce is needed
1/4 cup olive oil
1/4 cup grape seed oil

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees. Line cutlets up on a clean work surface with the shorter sides on top and bottom (seam side up, if made from a butterflied cut). Season with salt and pepper, and sprinkle with minced garlic, parsley and cheeses. Roll a cutlet into a tight log. Stretch butcher's twine along the length of the roll; wrap string tightly around one end and continue wrapping to the other end, each turn an inch from the previous one; tie loose ends. Repeat with remaining braciola.
  • Empty two cans of tomatoes into a mixing bowl. Use your fingers to break tomatoes apart, and discard firm cores and tops. Pour half the sauce into a deep-sided roasting pan. Season with salt and pepper.
  • Place a large skillet over medium-high heat, and add oils. When oils are hot but not smoking add braciola and sear, rotating every minute or so, until browned all over. Reduce heat to medium, add whole garlic cloves and sauté 2 to 3 minutes. Transfer braciola to roasting pan, allowing garlic to continue cooking until golden. Add a cup of remaining sauce to skillet, and scrape browned bits from bottom; shut off heat, and pour over braciola. Add remaining sauce to braciola, completely covering braciola. (If there isn't enough sauce, use another can of tomatoes.) Cover tightly with foil, and bake until tender, from 1 to 3 hours. Check frequently for doneness.
  • Snip twine off braciola. Arrange, whole or sliced, on a platter, drizzle with some sauce and transfer remaining sauce to a serving bowl. Serve hot or at room temperature. Garnish with Parmigiano-Reggiano.

Time 40m

Yield 4 to 6 servings

Number Of Ingredients 19

2 tablespoons smoked paprika
1 tablespoon packed brown sugar
1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon ground black pepper
2 pork tenderloins
1 cup store-bought barbecue sauce
2 tablespoons olive oil
Grilled Pineapple Pepper Relish, recipe follows, for serving
1/2 pineapple, cored and sliced into rings
5 tablespoons olive oil
3 jalapeños, halved and seeded (or leave some seeds for more heat)
1 poblano pepper, halved and seeded
1 large red bell pepper, quartered
Kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper
1/4 cup chopped fresh cilantro
1 tablespoon agave syrup
1 lime, zested and juiced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F. Line a baking sheet with foil.
  • Mix the paprika, brown sugar, garlic and onion powders, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Season the pork tenderloins liberally with the seasoning mixture.
  • Pour 1/3 cup of the barbecue sauce into a small bowl for brushing on the seared pork and reserve the remaining 2/3 cup for serving.
  • Add the olive oil to a skillet and place over medium heat. When the oil is hot, sear the pork until nicely browned on all sides, 4 to 5 minutes. Transfer the pork to the prepared baking sheet and brush with some of the barbecue sauce.
  • Transfer to the oven and cook, brushing with the barbecue sauce and turning every 5 minutes, until the meat is sticky, charred and cooked through, about 15 minutes. Turn the oven to broil at 500 degrees F and broil until bubbly on top, 1 to 2 minutes. Let rest for 5 minutes before slicing.
  • Serve topped with the Grilled Pineapple-Pepper Relish and the reserved barbecue sauce on the side.
  • Heat a grill pan or grill over medium heat.
  • Lightly brush the pineapple with 1 tablespoon of the olive oil and add to the grill pan. Toss the jalapeños, poblanos and bell peppers with the remaining 4 tablespoons olive oil and a pinch of salt and pepper and add to the grill pan. Grill the pineapple and peppers until slightly charred on both sides, about 5 minutes. Remove to a cutting board. Chop into small dice and add to a bowl. Add the cilantro, agave and lime zest and juice. Toss to combine.

  • Cook the braciole slowly: Braciole is best cooked slowly over low heat. This allows the pork to cook evenly and the flavors to develop.
