Crown Roast Of Pork With Mushroom Dressing Recipes

CROWN ROAST OF PORK

Steps:

• Heat oven to 325°F. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper. On rack in shallow roasting pan, place pork with bone ends up. Wrap bone ends in foil to prevent excessive browning. Insert ovenproof meat thermometer so tip is in thickest part of pork and does not touch bone or rest in fat. Place small heatproof bowl or crumpled foil in crown to hold shape of roast evenly. Do not add water.
• Roast uncovered 2 hours 40 minutes to 3 hours 20 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make Mushroom Stuffing. About 1 hour before pork is done, remove bowl and fill center of crown with stuffing. Cover stuffing with foil for first 30 minutes.
• Remove pork from oven when thermometer reads 150°F; cover with tent of foil and let stand 15 to 20 minutes or until thermometer reads 160°F. (Temperature will continue to rise about 10°F, and pork will be easier to carve.) Remove foil wrapping from bone ends. To serve, spoon stuffing into bowl and cut pork between ribs.

Remove foil; let meat stand 10 minutes before slicing., If desired, thread cranberries on a 20-in. string or thread. Transfer roast to a serving platter. Loop cranberry string in and out of rib ends. Slice between ribs to serve.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
• For the pork: In a small bowl, combine the garlic, rosemary, sage and crushed red pepper with 1/2 cup olive oil. Sprinkle the pork generously with salt and brush both sides with the olive oil herb paste.
• Stand the pork rack up and curl it around so that the two ends meet; be sure that the thick meaty part of the pork is on the inside. Secure the roast by tying it twice around the outside of the roast with twine.
• Place the pork in a large roasting pan fitted with a pizza pan tray and stuff the center of the pork with the Pear and Chestnut Stuffing. (There will be leftover stuffing. Place the leftover stuffing in a baking dish and cook for 35 minutes at 350 degrees F.)
• For the pan sauce: Place the garlic and diced veggies around the pork. Add half the chicken stock, the wine and bay leaves to the pan. Sprinkle everything with salt.
• Cover the pork bones with aluminum foil to prevent the bones from burning. Place the pork in the oven. Roast until the pork is starting to brown, about 30 minutes.
• Turn the oven down to 325 degrees F.
• Roast the pork for 2 1/2 more hours, basting the pork occasionally. Rotate the pork a couple of times during the cooking time. If the liquid level reduces, replace it with the remaining stock.
• When the pork is cooked to the proper doneness - an instant-read thermometer should read 140 to 145 degrees F - remove it from the oven. Carefully transfer the pork to a serving platter and cover it loosely with aluminum foil. Let the pork rest for 20 to 25 minutes.
• Bring the pan juices to a boil. Taste and re-season if needed. Blend the veggies if desired to create a smoother sauce. I also like to leave them in.
• To serve: Remove the twine. Scoop out the stuffing and cut the pork in between the bones to create chops. Top with pan sauce.
• Coat a wide, straight-sided pan with olive oil and add the bacon. Bring the pan to a medium heat and let the bacon get brown and crispy.
• Add the celery, onions and fennel and season with salt. Cook the veggies until they get soft and very aromatic, 8 to10 minutes. Add the rosemary and garlic and cook for 1 to 2 minutes more.
• Toss in the chestnuts, cranberries and pears, and stir to combine. Add the wine and let it reduce by half.
• Put the bread in a large mixing bowl and add the cooked veggie mixture to the bread. Stir to combine and douse the bread with half the stock. Use your hands to combine the bread, veggies and stock. Add more stock when/if needed to really saturate the bread. Season with salt and taste it to make sure it is delicious.

• Transfer pan juices from roasting pan to a gravy separator or a glass measure and skim off fat. Straddle roasting pan across 2 burners, then add wine to pan and boil over high heat, stirring and scraping up brown bits, until reduced by about half, about 5 minutes. Add reserved onion mixture, broth, pan juices, and any juices on platter from roast and bring to a simmer. Restir cornstarch mixture and add to pan, whisking, then simmer 2 minutes. Add butter and swirl pan until incorporated. Season with salt and pepper.
• Carve pork and serve with stuffing and sauce.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK WITH WILD-MUSHROOM STUFFING

Steps:

• For the roast: Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place vegetables on a rimmed baking sheet. Add 1 cup water.
• Season pork all over with salt and pepper. Cover each exposed bone with foil to prevent it from burning. Place 2 to 3 cups stuffing loosely in center, forming a dome (do not pack). Cover stuffing loosely with parchment and then foil. Place pork on top of vegetables.
• Roast for 20 minutes. Reduce oven to 350 degrees, and continue to cook, basting roast and stuffing every 30 minutes and adding about 1 cup water each time to prevent vegetables from burning. Roast is done when a meat thermometer inserted into thickest part of pork (without touching bone) registers 160 degrees, about 2 hours. Transfer roast to a plate, reserving pan juices and baking sheet and discarding the vegetables. Tent roast with foil, and let rest for at least 30 minutes.
• For the gravy: Pour reserved pan juices into a glass measuring cup or a gravy separator, and let stand until separated, about 10 minutes. Pour off fat. Strain remaining pan juices (you should have 1/2 cup; add stock if needed).
• Place reserved baking sheet over 2 burners on medium-high heat. Add Marsala, and stir with a wooden spoon to loosen browned bits. Strain into a saucepan, and stir in pan juices, stock, and demi-glace if using. Bring to a boil, and cook until reduced to 1 1/2 cups, about 5 minutes. Reduce heat to a gentle simmer, and season with salt and pepper. Stir together flour and butter until smooth, and gradually whisk into simmering gravy. Cook until gravy is slightly thick and glossy, 3 to 5 minutes.
• Transfer stuffed roast to a serving platter. Stir any juices that have collected on plate into the gravy.

• Garnish roast with pears, kumquats, and leaves if using. Serve with gravy and remaining stuffing.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK WITH WILD RICE STUFFING

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 425 degrees. Place racks on a work surface. Using a sharp knife, cut a third of the way through the meat between every two rib chops. (This will help the roast bend and stand upright.) Using a trussing needle and cotton kitchen twine, tie the ends of one rack to the ends of the second rack, being sure that the meat side of each rack faces outward. Tie a second piece of twine around the crown directly below the rib bones. Season with salt and pepper; let stand at room temperature for 30 minutes.
• In a small bowl, combine olive oil, zest, garlic, parsley, and sage; rub herb mixture evenly over meat. Transfer roast to a flat rack placed in a large heavy-duty roasting pan.
• Roast for 15 minutes; reduce heat to 375 degrees and continue roasting, rotating halfway through, until meat is well browned and an instant-read thermometer registers 140 to 150 degrees, about 2 hours 15 minutes. (Insert thermometer into meaty center of crown, avoiding any bone. Take several readings to ensure roast is cooked all over.)
• Remove from oven; let stand 20 minutes on the rack before transferring it to a serving platter. Remove twine and fill with cooked Wild Rice Stuffing. Garnish with rosemary and plums.

CROWN ROAST OF PORK AND STUFFING

Steps:

• Combine the salt, pepper, garlic and Worcestershire and rub into the roast.
• Place flat in a roaster bone ends down and roast covered for 2 hours in a 325 F oven.
• Meanwhile prepare the stuffing: Saute the onion and celery in the margarine until the onions are translucent and pour into a large mixing bowl.
• Add crumbs, apples, poultry seasoning, parsley flakes, 1 cup of apple juice, season with salt and pepper.
• Add a bit more juice if needed.
• The stuffing should be moist enough to hold together when squeezed lightly.
• After you have roasted the meat for 2 hours, remove it from the oven.
• Turn it so the rib ends are pointing out when you stand it on edge (like to secure the joining ribs with a bit of wire).
• Place a sleeve of tin foil in the center of the roast, have the foil large enough that you will be able to cover the stuffing by folding it over when filled.
• Fill the sleeve with the stuffing, fold foil over.
• Return the roast uncovered until the internal temp reaches 170F (apprx 1 1/2 hours).
• Decorate the rib ends with gay colored socks (use colors to match the seasons or holiday) after you have removed it from the oven and are ready to serve.
• **If, after stuffing the sleeve in the center of the roast, you have stuffing left over put it in a lightly greased casserole dish and put in the oven for the last 1 1/2 roasting time.

STUFFED CROWN ROAST OF PORK

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• To Make Stuffing: Melt butter in a large skillet over medium heat. When foam subsides add onion and saute, stirring frequently, for about 5 minutes. Stir in celery and apples; saute (without browning) about 5 minutes longer. Scrape skillet contents into a large mixing bowl. Add bread crumbs, ground pork, sausage meat, parsley, sage, salt and pepper. Mix together gently but thoroughly. (Note: Do not taste the uncooked stuffing, for it contains raw pork; instead, fry a small ball of the stuffing in the skillet, then taste and season with more salt and pepper as necessary).
• Fill the center of the crown with the stuffing, mounding it slightly. Cover it with a round of aluminum foil and wrap the ends of the chop bones in strips of foil to prevent them from charring and snapping off.
• Place the crown on a rack in a shallow roasting pan just large enough to hold it comfortably, and roast in the center of the oven, undisturbed, for about 3 hours or until internal temperature of meat is 175 degrees F (80 degrees C). (Note: 30 minutes before pork is done, remove the foil from the top of the stuffing to allow the top to brown.)
• Carefully transfer the crown to a large, heated, circular platter, strip the foil from the ends of the chops and replace it with paper frills. Let the crown rest for about 10 minutes before carving and serving. To Carve Pork: Insert a large fork in the side of the crown to steady it and, with a large, sharp knife, cut down through each rib to detach the chops. Two chops per person is a customary portion accompanied by a generous serving of the stuffing.
