Crown Roast of Pork and Stuffing image

An eye and taste pleaser for any special occasion. It looks so impressive wearing the little socks - take time to make them or buy the ready made. The stuffing compliments the pork flavor. You may make the socks out of foil or I prefer colored tissue paper. Cut strips of paper approx 2 1/2 " wide by 10" long, roll the paper into a cylinder and with scissors cut down 1 1/2 " on one edge of the cylinder spacing cuts1/4" apart. wrap the uncut ends around each bone and secure with thin wire or fine thread.

Time 4h25m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 13

7 lbs rib roast, approx (16 ribs)
1/2 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
salt and pepper
6 tablespoons margarine (do not use butter as it will brown too much)
1 cup onion, finely chopped
1/2 cup celery, finely chopped
6 cups dry breadcrumbs
2 cups apples, peeled cored and diced (use a sweeter apple like a macIntosh)
2 teaspoons poultry seasoning
1 tablespoon parsley flakes
1 cup apple juice (or a bit more)
salt and pepper

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.
