FALL-APART ROASTED PORK SHOULDER WITH ROSEMARY, MUSTARD AND GARLIC

Categories     Main Course

Time 8h20m

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons chopped garlic
3 anchovies, (rinsed)
2 tablespoons chopped fresh rosemary
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon freshly ground pepper
¼ cup olive oil
2 tablespoons coarse Dijon mustard
1 6-pound boneless pork shoulder (trimmed of excess fat and tied)

Steps:

  • In a small food processor combine the garlic, anchovies, rosemary, salt and pepper. Add the olive oil and process until it forms a paste, scraping down the sides. Remove the blade and use a fork or spoon to stir in the mustard. Rub the paste all over the pork shoulder, loosely cover it with plastic wrap, and refrigerate from 2 to 24 hours.
  • Preheat the oven to 450°F and bring the pork to room temperature while the oven heats. Place the pork in a shallow roasting pan and roast, uncovered, for 30 minutes, until the top starts to brown a bit. Turn the heat down to 250°F and continue to cook, uncovered, for 6 to 8 hours until the middle of the roast registers 180°F. on an internal thermometer, and as you slide the thermometer in you can feel that the meat is very tender throughout. If there are juices in the pan (and I have found that sometimes there are and sometimes none) pour off the juices from the pan into a heatproof container, like a Pyrex measuring cup. Place this in the fridge, where the fat will rise to the top, while the meat rests.
  • When the meat is cooked, if you think that the outside of the roast could use a bit more crust/brownness, turn the heat back up to 450°F and let it cook for another 15 to 20 minutes, to give the outside a bit more of a crunchy texture.
  • Remove from the oven and let sit for about 20 minutes. Spoon the fat off the reserved juices in the fridge and pour the cooking juices into a serving pitcher or bowl (warm it a bit in the microwave or in a small pot if you like). Slice the pork as thinly or thickly as you like, knowing the meat will fall apart at least slightly. Sprinkle the sliced meat with a bit of salt before serving, and pass the pan juices on the side to drizzle over.

SLOW-ROASTED PORK SHOULDER



Slow-Roasted Pork Shoulder image

Provided by Food Network Kitchen

Categories     main-dish

Time 5h45m

Yield about 6 main course servings (

Number Of Ingredients 7

2 heaping tablespoons black peppercorns
25 cloves garlic (about 2 heads), peeled
10 whole cloves
3/4 cup vegetable oil
1 bone-in pork shoulder (about 7 pounds)
Kosher salt, as needed
White distilled vinegar, as needed

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 275 degrees F.
  • In a food processor, combine the peppercorns, garlic, and cloves and puree. While the motor is running, drizzle in the oil until a paste is formed. Using a rubber spatula, scrape the garlic paste into a small bowl.
  • Place the pork butt on a work surface and season all over generously with salt. Rub all over with the garlic paste. Place in an oven-safe roasting bag and close with a twist tie. Place in a large roasting pan, and cook until tender, about 5 hours.
  • Remove roast from the oven. Slip the oven-roasting bag off the meat and discard. Transfer the cooking liquid to a medium saucepan. Skim the fat from the cooking liquid with a ladle or de-greaser. Bring to a boil, lower the heat, and simmer to thicken the juices slightly.
  • Raise the oven to 400 degrees F. Return the pork, in the roasting pan, to the oven. Continue roasting, basting frequently with the simmering cooking liquid, until well-browned, about 30 minutes. If there is any cooking liquid left, pour it over the pork.
  • Remove pork from the oven and let it rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. With the pork drippings you may make a vinegar sauce using this formula: for every 1/2 cup of drippings, whisk with 3 tablespoons vinegar and 1/4 teaspoon salt. Either carve the pork into thin slices, or, using 2 forks, pull into small pieces. Serve with the vinegar sauce on the side.

SLOW-ROAST PORK SHOULDER

This smoky, melt-in-the-mouth main course is slow-cooked for several hours, making it ideal for a Bonfire Night feast after the fireworks

Provided by James Martin

Categories     Dinner, Main course

Time 6h50m

Number Of Ingredients 7

1 tsp black treacle
2 tbsp cider vinegar
2 tsp smoked paprika
1 tsp ground cumin
1 tsp mustard powder
1 tsp chilli powder
2.7kg boned pork shoulder

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, mix the treacle, cider vinegar, paprika, cumin, mustard powder and chilli powder until smooth. Using a sharp knife, make deep slashes in the skin of the pork shoulder to cut through the skin and fat layer, but not the meat. Place the joint, skin-side down, in a large dish and rub the spice paste into the meat (not the fat). Turn skin-side, cover tightly with cling film and put in the fridge overnight, or for 24 hrs to give the pork maximum flavour.
  • Heat oven to 150C/130C fan/gas 2. Transfer the pork, skin-side up, to a deep roasting tin, rub 1 tbsp sea salt onto the skin and pour 500ml water into the bottom of the roasting tin. Cover tightly with foil and roast in the oven for 5 hrs.
  • Remove the foil, turn up the oven to 200C/180C fan/gas 6 and cook for a further 1 hr 30 mins or until the pork is very tender and the skin has turned to crispy crackling.
  • Once the pork is ready, take it out of the roasting tin, cover with foil and leave to rest. Pour the juices from the roasting tin into a jug and leave to separate. Pour off the fat layer and transfer the remaining juices to a large sauté pan. Simmer over a high heat, stirring, until reduced to a rich gravy.
  • Once rested, cut the pork into pieces - it should pull apart with very little effort - and break the crackling into shards. Serve the pork and crackling with the gravy poured over and mustard mash, honey-roasted carrots and quick pickled red cabbage on the side (see goes well with below).

ROASTED PORK SHOULDER WITH SAGE AND CORIANDER



Roasted Pork Shoulder with Sage and Coriander image

A spice mixture of toasted peppercorns, coriander, garlic, shallots, and sage flavors a pork shoulder that's perfectly succulent after slow, tenderizing cooking.

Provided by Martha Stewart

Categories     Food & Cooking     Ingredients     Meat & Poultry     Pork Recipes

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 tablespoons whole black peppercorns
2 tablespoons coriander seeds
4 cloves garlic, thinly sliced
2 large shallots, thinly sliced
2 tablespoons chopped fresh sage
Coarse salt
1/4 cup extra-virgin olive oil
1 boneless pork shoulder (about 6 pounds), trimmed

Steps:

  • Toast peppercorns and coriander seeds in a small saute pan over medium-low heat until fragrant, about 5 minutes. Let cool completely. Transfer to a food processor. Add garlic, shallots, sage, and 1 tablespoon salt, and grind to a chunky paste. With processor running, slowly add oil; mix until well combined.
  • Untie pork, if tied. Rub pork with spice mixture. Put in a resealable plastic bag, and expel air; seal bag. Marinate in the refrigerator, turning occasionally, overnight or up to 3 days. Let stand at room temperature 1 to 2 hours before cooking.
  • Preheat oven to 450 degrees. Roll pork, and tie into a compact log with kitchen twine. Transfer to a small roasting or medium baking pan. Roast 20 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees; continue to cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 150 degrees, about 2 hours 15 minutes. Transfer to a warmed platter, cover with foil, and let rest 10 to 15 minutes before slicing.

Tips:

  • Choosing the Right Cut of Pork Shoulder: Select a pork shoulder with a good amount of marbling for optimal flavor and tenderness.
  • Seasoning the Pork Shoulder: Use a flavorful blend of spices, herbs, and mustard to create a savory crust on the pork. The recipe suggests a mixture of garlic, thyme, sage, salt, and pepper.
  • Browning the Pork Shoulder: Sear the pork shoulder in a hot skillet before roasting to develop a rich, caramelized crust.
  • Slow Roasting the Pork Shoulder: Roast the pork shoulder at a low temperature for an extended period to ensure it becomes fall-off-the-bone tender. The recipe recommends cooking at 325°F (163°C) for 3-4 hours.
  • Adding Vegetables: Roast vegetables such as carrots, potatoes, and onions alongside the pork shoulder to create a flavorful and hearty dish.
  • Finishing and Serving: Remove the pork shoulder from the oven and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before shredding or slicing. Serve with the roasted vegetables and pan juices.
