What kind of cut? Saying "pork roast" is like saying sm

Posted By: ChiaPet on 2009-03-16

"roast beef". How you cook a pork roast depends on whether it is a butt, a shoulder, a pork loin, a sirloin. All of them are to be cooked in a different manner.

The drinkin kind or the rubbin kind?? sm
So....is that for me to drink so I don't notice or care that my hands are all splotchy black or to get the ink off?    Seriously though, do I use the rubbing alcohol - or like Jack Daniels??  and do I soak in it or what?  I never heard of using alcohol but I'll try anything. 
Pig Roast
I just went to a pig roast for my brother-in-law's wedding reception. It was a lot of fun. They had gotten married by a Justice of the Peace and has the reception (pig roast) a few months later. It was very causal just like a huge family barbecue. Have a great time.
Roast
Can I ask what type of cut makes the best roast? I love pot roast but every time I make mine in the crockpot it comes out tough! I think I've tried just about every cut there is !
here's one from foodnetwork...5 hrs to roast
SLOW-ROASTED PORK SHOULDER
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


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, scrap 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.


Pork Roast
I'm not sure of the side dishes yet.
Aw, DH put a pot roast in the oven

when I wasn't paying attention.  He even put in parsnips - my favorite part. 


Good hubby.


Prime rib roast

I'm thinking of doing a goose Christmas Eve - will be a first though.  Usually do spiral hams, but I get one for the days while the kids are off instead and do the prime rib for Christmas Day and usually have shrimp cocktail as well. 


YUMMMM!


pork roast

Are you browning/searing it before you do any cooking with it?  That sometimes can make a difference - even if you're going to put it in the crockpot or cook it in the oven.  Try searing it in a pan with a little bit of olive oil and then putting it in the oven or crockpot.  This gives it another layer of flavor with the carmelization on the outside, but it also helps keep the juices in.


 


I'm cooking a roast in the crock sm
that I took an envelope of dry onion soup mix, and two cans (hated to spare 'em) of Coke over the top.  It has been in the crock all day for me to whiff, hmmmm....  Needless to say, I can't wait to see what it tastes like.  I hope hubby and the kids like it!  I do not usually use my crock, but I got this great crock pot recipe cookbook last week from the library, well, I think I'll renew the book....  There are actually recipes for cakes in there, too!  Could you imagine a chocolate cake with pudding in the middle that you've cooked in your crock pot all day?  The book is called Fix It and Forget It!  I love to cook, but when there's lots of typing to do, the quick stuff comes in handy-dandy!  lol  That steak and "stuff" you guys are talking about sounds great! 
leftover roast beef
I've had roast beef sandwiches for three days. Can I make the roast beef into something that I can freeze and eat later?

Lithuanian pork roast
Son was on a camping trip this weekend and had Lithuanian pork roast.  Anyone out there have a recipe? He loved it!

I buy the Walmart roast, I think it's 2.98 a pound. sm
I believe it said round roast on the sticker-the hunks I buy are around 10.00 apiece with absolutely no fat. My husband loves them. I put it in the oven frozen and cooked it all afternoon on low. Threw two small cans of V8 juice, a whole onion, some garlic and pepper. I thickened the juice with flour a little Gravy Master to darken the juice so it wouldn't be red and put in my potatoes, turned the oven up to 350 and everything was done and piping hot for hubby at 4:30. I had 1 slice, he ate the rest. Now, is that fair? LOL.

I have an eye roast recipe that's easy

Eye Round Roast (average size)


Sauce:


1 tbl crushed garlic (or a few cloves if you use fresh)


1/4 c veg oil


1/4 c of soy sauce


2 tbl of vinegar


1/4 c of honey (i've also used brown sugar, but that burns easy)


1 tsp of ginger


Mix the sauce and pour it over the roast.  I've also seared the roast before adding the sauce and then cook in oven around 350 or you can do this in a slow cooker.


The sauce is tasty and I think the vinegar tenderizes the meat.  I'll slice it down when it's down and add the slices back to the sauce.



Pork roast...details below if anyone is interested
I do mine with tomatoes, basil and a clove of frash garlic and just a tad of oliver oil. I wrap that in foil and put it on the grill. I make this with red potatoes (slice partway open and put some butter inside, wrap in foil and grill also). I usually steam some green beans to go along with it, but this is a throw it on and forget about is for 45 minutes. Not great for those thighs but tastes heavenly!
Roast Beef and Sauce in Crock Pot

Any kind of roast, but works well with eye roast.  You can pan oil quick fry it to seal in moisture, but I have cooked this without pan searing as well.


Stir together, 1/2 cup soy sauce, 2 tbsp ground garlic, 1/4 cup of oil, 4 tbsp vinegar, and about 1 tsp of ground ginger.


Pour over roast and cook in the crockpot.  Depending on the size, I would do high for a while, and then down to low.  About 8 hours or so.  I've made this both in the crockpot and in the oven, so time varies.    


I use my leftover roast beef for tacos! nm

open faced roast beef sandwiches
Not so great for dieters, but heck, every now and then a little diet cheating is good.  Toast up some bread, shred the roast over it, top with mashed potatoes (the real ones!), douse in brown gravy - instant comfort food.
I'm cooking a round roast in onions and V8 juice.sm
It smells so good I want to eat it now!  Yum. 
I am lazy and not a good cook, but I buy those roast bags sm
in with the seasoning packets. It comes with seasoning and the bag for about $2 usually. I buy whatever cut is on sale, put it in the bag with the seasoning, straight to the hot oven and add veggies in a few hours. Always, always tender and falling apart no matter what cut. I have tried the crockpot too, but mine is never good and tender that way.
use frozen carrots in soups/stews/roast
I always use frozen carrots and celery and onions in my soups, stews, roasts, gravy, etc. You can either thaw them in the fridge (probably the upper part of yours) or in the microwave before throwing into the pot...otherwise start them at the beginnig of the recipe so they have a chance to get a head start over everything else and thaw that way. freezing veggies is a great way to 'use' them before they go bad. we don't eat a whole bundle of carrots or celery before the go bad so when i know they are getting close i chop them all up and freeze them. same with bananas for banana bread and the fixings for salsa. :)

child since he moved here in March. I also am not one of those parent's that thinks my children are perfect. You never know what they might do out of your presence. I do know how I have raised them though and I am all for getting them all together when there is a problem and getting to the bottom of it but anymore that doesn't seem to work. The parents automatically get defensive and start making excuses, etc. I'm going to look for somewhere else to move. I've lived here for 2-1/2 years and we never had a problem until this boy moved in. His mother is a piece of work.

I could think of dozens of adjectives that are *stronger* than smarmy but probably not permitted to be typed at this website...

I would not want to pay for that kind
of therapy.  If the therapist cannot stay neutral and professional...I just would not be comfortable either.  If my friends and family cannot be my therapist, why would I want my therapist to act like a friend?  Good luck in whatever you do. 
At least you got a thank you of some kind. sm
There have been a couple times when I haven't even received a thank you note for a wedding gift.

Actually, I think it was just one time, because the other time I finally got the thank you note (lovely, hand written), but it was a *year* later! (And I thought I procrastinated... LOL)
That's kind of what
I figured, but wasn't sure. Are you talking about like the Solarcaine green gel with lidocaine? That's what I put on it, but he will barely even let me do that. I put sunscreen on them on and off all day, but guess not enough! I guess I underestimated that hot Galveston sun! Thanks for the advice.
What kind of look are you going for?

Classic? Country? Rustic? Modern?


Butcher-block (or lookalike) would work for country or rustic. Stainless steel would work for modern. Tile or slate could work for most styles, depending on the design.


I have a Corian-type solid surface countertop which I like. It does scratch fairly easily, but the scratches are easily buffed out with polish unless they are really deep.


Well, I think they are trying to do some kind of (sm)

public service or something, probably about reporting it.  Brooke was on at the very end making a little speech, but I actually didn't hear it.


YAY!!! What kind did you get? (sm)
I've been using one for years, but I'm working 2 jobs now and to break the monotony, I use 2 different computers in different rooms. I 'commute' with my ergo keyboard because the one downstairs has a regular keyboard. So, I'm thinking about getting a new one. The one I'm using now is a Microsoft, but I think the model is extinct, so I'm looking for recommendations.

You're not a dork. I know how you feel. It was like... How the heck did I ever type on a regular keyboard!!?? With our job, ergonomics and comfort is everything. Congrats and have fun LOL ;-)
No and if I did that, she is the kind that
would be highly insulted, get her nose out of place. I have honest to goodness kept my mouth shut when I wanted time after time to say something- I love her but I don’t like her. Does any other mother understand this? I have walked on egg shells not saying things. Not an open communication ever with her- she is much into her friends though.
You are too kind!
20 years ago I would have flew off the handle to have something like this, but now I know it is in His hands, not mine!  Thanks for the encouragement.
Me too. I can't think of what kind of job I can do
that isn't MT...I've been doing this for so long. I can write well, and am a heckuva ghostwriter (have done blogs and resume cover letters for friends) but can't figure out where the money is in that. Sigh.

Good luck to everyone.
You all have been so kind
Thank you all so much. Words just cannot express my gratitude for the way you've extended your hearts to a virtual stranger. You're all amazing.

Romey, your post was very nice. I couldn't read it the first time I tried. I had to walk away and come back and read it later.

It is getting easier with time.
Kind of

Usually every year my husband's family gathers here in Central Florida at the beach.  However, during the hurricane season of 2004, the condo that my uncle owned timeshare in got damaged to the point of being condemned.  So now that we have to actually PAY for a condo, this year we have decided to head up to the panhandle which is halfway between the FL family and the AL family and in the same town as one of the aunts, namely due to gas prices and Lord their drive used to be 10 hours, no fun with kids.


As for us, we will be heading up there which we don't usually do.  However, both myself and my husband work from home so we might put gas in each vehicle once a month?  We also own a boat which we put gas in but this year we're telling friends who want to come out and go wakeboarding that they're going to have to chip in for gas.  As an FYI, boat takes 87 and not great gas mileage.  I drive a truck that takes the cheap stuff but gets 19 mpg and less while towing the boat.  Husband drives a sportscar that takes 93 BUT gets like 25-28 mpg, to say the least we will be driving his car to the panhandle in May!

You are both so kind, and you are right
on the mark. Yes, the credit cards are his. He lived off credit cards for several years to support himself and his kids after he and his wife split up. His wife never paid child support and he paid for daycare and everything, so had to pay for extras outside of his salary on credit. Then when I came along I was doing real well as a hospital MT, but had to quit because I was here and he needed me to watch the kids. He did not understand I had a shift like a regular job. So, after several months of my back and forth work and being with the kids, the boss gave me an ultimatum daycare for the kids or I leave my job. I told my DH that my income which was very good at the time was important to me as I have supported myself my whole life including being a single mom. But he would not budge. So, I quit. It has been 3 years and most of our marriage my trying to balance kids (I love them don't get me wrong) and work. I finally become a SE, and I am giving him direct deposit on my paycheck with me taking a small percentage out for things for my son. But, since the money is now coming in he is putting it to the credit cards. Anyway, I stopped eating mostly because I got disgusted. He is always having sandwiches and chowing down in front of me. His boy who is a big eater is asking for 3 or 4 snacks a day. My son asks for snacks there's nothing left and he said to me:" Next time you get money mommy, GO FOOD SHOPPING." He said that right in front of DH. But, I just know when I do that the gorging goes on. I explained to DH about telling his son about gluttony, but he laughs at me. So, when I see him and his son eat this way, I get grossed out and am not hungry at all. I am sorry to say all this here. I actually just came back from the doc who gives me nerve pills because of my situation and he says I am doing really well coping with the situation. Which he knows what is going on. He is sending me to see a good counselor who he says," will validate me and give me support and confidence." Last time I went to see a counselor she told me to leave. But, my son loves his step sister and brother and so I want to stay. Well, sorry for the soap opera. I think when I start making more money I will get food and tires for my car, etc. but I will hide some food and snacks and siphon it into the general population here. That way they don't get snorted up by certain people. LOL. (And yes, I am putting an emergency fund away. But this is why I wish there was more transcription out there!) Thanks for your kind words and support. Between you and the doc today, it makes me feel I am not alone! :)
I kind of like this.


I have tried nearly every kind
of mascara known to woman. My favorite BY FAR is the Loreal Voluminous waterproof. It's so silky, non-clumping, etc. Just perfect. So I guess now it's time for them to discontinue it - LOL! That's what happened after I found my perfect foundation -- Maybelline's Wonder Finish.
Yup, have 2 teens and it is kind....
of interesting as one does not have "all the time in the world for that anymore." We have got to get when we can. But also he works nights and obviously sleeps some during the day. Maybe that is what has kept the fire going all these years. LOL
With that kind of money,
she could have easily afforded to pay you back without filing on the insurance. She should have offered to have paid you half back at least. I think that would have settled it.

Don't take your parents not choosing sides personally. They are probably trying to not make the situation worse than it already is. They are probably hoping you two will work this out somehow. Them getting involved will only make it worse.

Besides everything she has done, losing your family is just not worth it. I hope that you can find a way to work this out. My brother passed away and my sister is missing. I would give ANYTHING to have them back.

you are very kind; thanks for your time.
