MUSTARDY HERBY PORK BUTT

Steps:

• The night before you're going to cook, unwrap the pork butt and pat it dry. Season it liberally all over with salt and leave it uncovered in the fridge overnight.
• The next day, mix the mustard, herbs and garlic in a small bowl. Slather the mixture all over the pork butt (really get in there). Let it sit for an hour or so on the counter.
• Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F.
• Heat the oil in a heavy-bottomed pot. Sear the butt 5 minutes on each side to brown. Remove the pork from the pot to a sheet tray. Pour in 1/4 cup of the wine and scrape up all the brown bits as the wine starts to boil. Kill the heat.
• Put the pork back in the pot. Add the chicken stock and the remaining 2 cups wine. (These are the liquids I use but, TBH, you can roll with what you have. Water is ok too!) Put into the oven and cook for 3 hours, or until the roast internal temp is 175 degrees F (start checking it around 2 hours). If using a multi-cooker, put the pork along with all the pan drippings, wine and chicken stock into the pot. Set the pot to high pressure/natural release for 50 minutes.
• Turn the oven temp to 450 degrees F or turn on the broiler. When the pork temps at 175, remove it from the pot and onto a sheet tray with a rack. Pop the pork in the oven or under the broiler to crisp it up. While the pork is crisping, put the pot with all the cooking liquid over high heat and reduce it by half.
• When the pork is GBD, remove it from the oven and let it rest for 15 to 20 minutes. Remove the string and slice into finger-width pieces against the grain. Top with the reduced sauce and serve with hunks of crusty bread and a big ass salad.

MUSTARD-AND-HERB-CRUSTED PORK ROAST

Steps:

• Brine the pork: Combine 4 cups water, the salt, sugar, garlic, bay leaves, juniper berries, peppercorns and cloves in a large pot or wide Dutch oven (large enough to hold the pork). Heat over medium heat, stirring, until the salt and sugar dissolve. Add 8 cups ice cubes; stir occasionally until the brine is cooled.
• Make small deep cuts, about 2 inches apart, all over the pork and between the ribs using the tip of a paring knife. Add the pork to the pot and submerge in the brine; add more cold water if needed to completely submerge. Refrigerate overnight.
• Set a rack in a roasting pan and put the pan on the lowest oven rack; preheat to 325 degrees F. Remove the pork from the brine, pat dry and set aside to bring to room temperature. Remove 3 cups brine (along with the spices) to a medium saucepan; bring to a boil. Remove the hot roasting pan from the oven and carefully stand up the pork on the rack with the chine bone down. Add the hot brine to the bottom of the pan. Roast until the fat is mostly rendered, about 40 minutes.
• Meanwhile, make the crust: Pulse the panko, butter, scallion, parsley, thyme and juniper berries in a food processor until the herbs are coarsely chopped and the mixture is combined.
• Remove the pork from the oven and reposition so it is meat-side up; brush the top and sides with the mustard, then sprinkle with the panko mixture, patting to adhere. Return to the oven and roast 50 more minutes.
• Increase the oven temperature to 425 degrees F and continue roasting until the crust is crisp and a thermometer inserted into the center registers 140 degrees F, about 20 more minutes. Remove from the oven, transfer to a cutting board and let rest 20 minutes before carving.

PORK CHOPS & MUSTARDY BUTTER BEANS

Steps:

• Heat 1 tbsp of the oil in a saucepan. Add the onion and fry over a medium heat for 10 mins, or until softened. Add the garlic and cook for 1 min. Stir through the butter beans and stock and bring to a simmer. Add the spinach. Cover and cook for 3 mins or until the spinach is wilted.
• Blitz the mixture using a hand blender for 10 secs, leaving some chunky, whole beans. Stir through the crème fraîche and mustard and season generously, then simmer for 3 mins to thicken. Set aside.
• Season the pork chops on both sides. Heat the remaining oil in a non-stick pan over a medium-high heat. Hold the chops on their sides with a pair of tongs to brown the fat. Cook each one on either side for 7 mins or until cooked through. Spoon the beans onto plates, slice the pork and arrange on top.
