Time 2h15m

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 18

1 (3 pound) pork shoulder roast
3 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
3 cloves garlic, chopped
3 tablespoons chopped fresh parsley
4 teaspoons olive oil, divided
1 tablespoon kosher salt
1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper
1 cup water
1 tablespoon olive oil
2 cloves garlic, chopped
½ teaspoon red pepper flakes
½ cup chicken stock
12 ounces fresh spinach
1 teaspoon salt
½ teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
lemon, juiced
1 cup shredded Manchego cheese
4 crusty rolls

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
  • Remove the netting or strings on pork roast, keeping them intact to use again. Combine rosemary, 3 cloves of garlic, parsley, 3 teaspoons of olive oil, 1 tablespoon kosher salt, and 1 tablespoon freshly ground black pepper in a bowl. Slice open the pork roast and spread it with the oil and herb mixture. Roll up the pork and secure it with the netting or string. Rub outside of the roast with remaining 1 teaspoon olive oil and salt and pepper to taste.
  • Place the pork, fat side up, in a roasting pan or baking dish and pour in water. Bake in the preheated oven, basting occasionally, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours; add more water if necessary. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the meat should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Allow the roast to rest 10 to 15 minutes. Reserve the pan juices.
  • While the pork is resting, heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a frying pan over medium heat. Stir in 2 cloves chopped garlic and red pepper flakes; cook and stir until garlic is fragrant but not brown, about 3 minutes. Pour in chicken stock and bring it to a boil. Add spinach, 1 teaspoon salt, 1/2 teaspoon black pepper, and lemon juice. Reduce the heat to medium-low and cook until the spinach is wilted, stirring occasionally.
  • Cut the string on the roast and cut the pork into thin slices. Return the sliced pork to the reserved pan juices.
  • Slice the sandwich rolls and sprinkle each roll with shredded Manchego cheese. Add pork slices to each sandwich, top with spinach, and serve.

SLOW-COOKER ROAST PORK SANDWICHES



Slow-Cooker Roast Pork Sandwiches image

Inspired by Italian roast pork sandwiches we've had in Philadelphia, this weeknight version uses a slow cooker to develop loads of flavor and create meltingly tender meat. The sandwich is then quickly built with provolone, arugula for a peppery bite and Giardiniera for that extra pickle-like punch to cut through the rich roast pork.

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 7h25m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 pounds boneless pork shoulder, cut into 4 chunks
Kosher salt and freshly ground pepper
1 tablespoon fennel seeds, coarsely ground
1 small sprig rosemary
1 bay leaf (preferably fresh)
4 cloves garlic, smashed
5 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
1 large loaf soft Italian or French bread
8 thin slices provolone cheese (about 4 ounces)
1 cup chopped giardiniera, plus brine for drizzling
8 jarred pepperoncini, thinly sliced
2 cups baby arugula

Steps:

  • Season the pork generously with salt and pepper and rub all over with the fennel seeds. Transfer to a 6- to 8-quart slow cooker and add the rosemary, bay leaf, garlic and olive oil. Cover and cook on low until the meat is browned in spots and tender, 7 hours.
  • Pull the pork apart with tongs or 2 large forks. Discard any large chunks of fat and discard the rosemary and bay leaf. Toss the meat in the juices; season with salt and pepper.
  • Cut the bread crosswise into 4 pieces and split each piece open. Toast the bread, if desired. Divide the cheese among the bottom halves of the bread, then top with the meat, leaving the juices in the slow cooker. Top the sandwiches with the giardiniera plus a drizzle of giardiniera brine, the pepperoncini and arugula.
  • Strain the juices from the slow cooker into a liquid measuring cup, then pour into small ramekins or cups. Serve with the sandwiches for dipping.

SLOW COOKER PORK ROAST



Slow Cooker Pork Roast image

I tried this cut of meat when it was on sale, and for lack of any other ideas I took suggestions from the back of the label, with a few tweaks (like making gravy). This is a very popular dish at our house, and it could not be easier! Instead of rubbing the roast with the onion soup mix and then adding the cranberry sauce, you can also just mix the onion soup mix with the cranberry sauce and pour the whole mixture over the roast.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, a pork shoulder or pork butt is the best choice, as they are both fatty cuts that will become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
  • Sear the pork before cooking: Searing the pork in a hot skillet before transferring it to the slow cooker helps to develop a flavorful crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a flavorful liquid: The liquid you use in the slow cooker will add flavor to the pork, so choose something flavorful like chicken broth, apple cider, or beer.
  • Add vegetables and seasonings: Along with the liquid, you can also add vegetables and seasonings to the slow cooker to enhance the flavor of the pork. Some good options include onions, carrots, celery, garlic, rosemary, and thyme.
  • Cook on low and slow: The key to tender and flavorful pork is to cook it on low and slow. This will allow the pork to cook evenly and develop a rich flavor.

Conclusion:

Slow cooker roast pork sandwiches are an easy and delicious meal that can be enjoyed by the whole family. With just a few simple ingredients and a little time, you can have a flavorful and satisfying meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a casual party.
