Pork

I am looking for some new ideas of how to cook/bake pork.

I find all kinds of recipes for chicken and I am getting really sick of eating chicken.

Thank you in advance.

    I make a lot of pork tenderloin. My favorite is to coat it with Dijon mustard and then add caraway and celery seed to both sides. Bake in 350 degree oven for about an hour.

    I cook a pork loin in the slow cooker with peppers, onions, spices, usually chilli powder and garlic salt. You can use this as a base for many other dishes, I usually do 1st meal of just the meat with some veggie sides, then I will make pork fajitas, or tacos and then add BBQ sauce for some tasty shredded pork sandwiches. You can use it for salads, fried rice, rice and beans, or about any Mexican or Asian recipe calling for pork. I will try the Dijon mustard method mentioned, that sounds good!

    CURRIED PORK WITH PEANUTS

    Boneless pork loin cut into cubes
    Golden brand curry paste or a couple tablespoonfuls of good quality curry powder
    Handful of dry roasted unsalted peanuts
    Tablespoon of olive oil

    Sautee the pork, add curry paste and a little water and stir until paste turns to a sauce, OR just add the curry powder and the peanuts, heat through, sprinkle with a little coarse ground black pepper.

    In the slow cooker with my favourite barbeque sauce (right now its the presidents choice smokin stampede)
    or marinated in lemon juice, olive oil, rosemary and a bit of pepper and grilled on the barbeque.

    I have the same problem with chicken so I try to incorporate at least one pork night per week to break things up. Good luck with the recipes!

    porchetta.. umbrian style.

    i use a cheap belly pork joint..

    open it up , garlic cloves , tons of fresh rosemary, juniper berries and fill it with a ridiculous amount of sea salt..

    roll and tie it up.

    place in the oven on a rack with a tray below it and set the oven to 120 degrees and leave it for 6 hours.( must be cooked this slow)

    take out of the oven and grill the crackling until crisp .

    done...

    ( all the salt runs out into the tray and it tastes as good as i can buy sold all over umbria italy and done with a full pig, good hot but makes tasty cold sandwich )
