OVERNIGHT SLOW ROASTED PORK

For that feast you are planning! This makes the most meltingly tender pulled pork. This calls for a whole shoulder, but I have done this with a Boston Butt(with skin on) with good results. From Jamie Oliver.

Time 10h

Yield 20-30 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

Ingredients

11 -13 lbs pork shoulder, one the bone, skin scored with a sterilized exacto knife
750 ml dry white wine
1 pint chicken stock
3 medium carrots, peeled, sliced into thick rings
3 onions, peeled and roughly chopped
2 fennel bulbs, trimmed
1 head garlic, peeled, and smashed
1 bunch fresh thyme
2 tablespoons fennel seeds
1 tablespoon sea salt

Steps:

Preheat oven to maximum.
Smash fennel seeds with salt in a mortar and pestle until fine.
Put the veggies, garlic, and thyme sprigs into a large roasting tray.
Pat shoulder with olive oil and put on top of the veggies. It is IMPERATIVE that it covers all the veggies, or they will burn, and your sauce will not work.
If you use a Boston Butt be sure to reduce cooking time!
Massage with the powdered fennel, rubbing into the scores.
Put into max heated oven for 20-30 minutes, or until it is beginning to color, then turn down to 250F and cook for 9-12 hours or until you can pull it with a fork (198 internal temp).
Tip all the wine into the roasting tray and let it cook for another hour until you have a nice thick sauce.
Remove and let rest for a half hour, before moving to a very large cutting board.
Mash up the veggies in the tray with a potato masher. Add chicken stock, and boil until you have a nice gravy. You may need to thicken it.
Serve with braised greens, baked beans and the lovely gravy. Yum!

OVERNIGHT SLOW-ROASTED FENNEL PORK

Overnight Slow-Roasted Fennel Pork image

A number of years back, I was doing some sort of search on my computer and this recipe from Jamie Oliver appeared. It's funny how things like that happen, as I wasn't even looking for a recipe! Anyway, I had decided to make something different for our Christmas meal and decided to give it a try; this dish is put in the oven to cook every Christmas Eve now and has become a bit of a tradition. Thanks, Jamie Oliver... wonderful dish!

Ingredients

2 tablespoon(s) fennel seeds (in spice aisle)
1 tablespoon(s) kosher salt
2 large fennel bulbs (may be called anise in your store's produce section)
4 medium carrots
3 large yellow onions
1 large bulb fresh garlic (not clove, whole bulb)
1 bunch(es) fresh thyme
1 large pork shouler (boston butt) 11-13 pounds
- olive oil
1 bottle(s) good white wine, 750 ml
1 pint(s) chicken stock (homemade is best)

Steps:

Preheat your oven to maximum temperature.
Trim the greenery from the fennel bulbs and discard, and roughly chop the bulbs; peel the carrots and roughly chop; peel the onions and roughly chop; separate the bulb of garlic into cloves, leaving skin on cloves and roughly smash.
Place all the roughly chopped vegetables into a large, covered roasting pan. Separate the bunch of thyme and lay all the sprigs on top; set aside.
Smash the fennel seeds and salt in a pestle and mortar until fine.
Score the entire top surface of the pork then pat with olive oil and place on top of chopped vegetables in the roasting pan. Sprinkle all the crushed fennel mixture on the pork using your fingers to massage it into the surface and into the scores.
Place the prepared roast, uncovered, into the preheated oven and cook until it becomes very fragrant and the meat starts to color, about 20-30 minutes.
Turn the temperature down to 250 degrees, cover the roasting pan and cook overnight until soft and sticky, 9-12 hours depending on roast size. ADD THE ENTIRE BOTTLE OF WINE TO THE ROASTING PAN FOR THE LAST HOUR OF COOKING TIME.
Remove from the oven when done and allow to sit covered for an hour before removing the roast from the pan. Place the roast on a platter and cover with foil to keep warm.
Remove the thyme stems from the roasting pan, then mash the vegetables with a potato masher. Add the chicken stock and slow-boil on the stove top to reduce as desired, for the most amazing sauce to be served with the pork, potatoes, etc.
Jamie Oliver says you can thicken with flour, if you wish, but I can tell you reducing it a bit on the stove top retains all that wonderful, intense flavor. *** THE SMELL OF THIS COOKING HAS GOT TO BE ONE OF THE BEST I HAVE EVER CREATED IN MY KITCHEN... ABSOLUTELY AMAZING WITH A TASTE TO MATCH ***
