HONEY-BAKED PORK ROAST RECIPE | COOKING LIGHT



Honey-Baked Pork Roast Recipe | Cooking Light image

Instead of the traditional cured ham that’s full of sodium and nitrates, bake the flavors of honey-baked ham into a pork picnic roast. The meat slowly roasts so that the sugar-honey spice rub bakes into a shellac-like crust. And the roast slices like ham, with firm but juicy slices that go perfectly with a simple honey-mustard sauce. We use a skin-on picnic roast here, which is cheaper than a Boston butt roast—making the holiday a little more affordable. Use a sharp knife to remove the skin, but leave the fat layer on to insulate the meat as it cooks.

Total Time 255 minutes

Yield Serves 16 (serving size: about 3 oz. pork and about 2 1/2 tsp. sauce)

Number Of Ingredients 12

1 (5-lb.) bone-in pork picnic half roast
6 1/2 tablespoons honey, divided
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon ground ginger
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
1/3 cup canola mayonnaise
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
3/8 teaspoon ground red pepper

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 300°F. Trim tough outer skin layer from pork, leaving as much fat as possible intact. Discard skin. Rub 2 1/2 tablespoons honey over pork. Combine sugar, salt, pepper, cinnamon, ginger, and cloves in a bowl; rub mixture evenly over all sides of pork. Place pork, fat side up, in a foil-lined broiler pan. Bake at 300°F until a thermometer inserted in thickest portion registers 170° to 180°F, about 3 to 3 1/2 hours. Remove from oven; let stand 15 minutes before cutting into thin slices. Combine remaining 1/4 cup honey, mayonnaise, and remaining ingredients; serve sauce with pork.

SLOW-COOKED BBQ PORK ROAST RECIPE | COOKING LIGHT



Slow-Cooked BBQ Pork Roast Recipe | Cooking Light image

Thanks to the slow cooker, fall is our new favorite season for barbecue. A pork roast, smothered in a spice rub and nestled in a ketchup-and-vinegar-laced liquid, becomes meltingly tender and saucy. Pile onto buns for game day sandwiches; serve over creamy grits with braised greens; or spread over sweet potato fries, bake, and load with your favorite toppings for Southern-inspired nachos. Let the cooking liquid cool—either at room temp or in a bowl in the fridge—before skimming so that the fat solidifies on top and is easier to remove.

Total Time 510 minutes

Yield Serves 10 (serving size: about 3 oz. pork)

Number Of Ingredients 14

2 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 teaspoons paprika
1 teaspoon black pepper
1 teaspoon ground cumin
3/4 teaspoon ground red pepper
1/2 teaspoon ground coriander
1 (4 1/2-lb.) bone-in pork shoulder roast (Boston butt), trimmed
1 tablespoon canola oil
1 cup finely chopped white onion
1 tablespoon finely chopped garlic
1/2 cup unsalted chicken stock
1/2 cup unsalted ketchup
1/4 cup apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon kosher salt

Steps:

  • Combine first 6 ingredients in a bowl. Reserve 2 tablespoons spice mixture. Rub remaining spice mixture evenly over pork, pressing to adhere. Heat oil in a large Dutch oven over medium-high. Add pork to pan; cook 15 minutes, turning to brown on all sides. Place browned pork in a 5- to 6-quart electric slow cooker. Add onion and garlic to Dutch oven; sauté 3 minutes. Add stock to pan, stirring bottom to scrape up browned bits. Remove pan from heat; stir in reserved 2 tablespoons spice mixture, ketchup, and vinegar. Pour stock mixture over pork in slow cooker. Cover, and cook on low 7 1/2 to 8 hours or until tender. Place pork on a cutting board; let stand 20 minutes. Skim fat from cooking liquid; reserve 1/4 cup liquid. Shred pork into large pieces, discarding bones and fat. Place pork in a bowl; add reserved 1/4 cup cooking liquid and salt; toss to combine.
