Cider-Braised Pork Cheeks | Allrecipes image

You'll probably need to order pork cheeks from your butcher, but the resulting slow-cooked meaty goodness is so worth it. This is delicious served over buttery mashed potatoes with lots of the gravy.

Provided by Chef John

Categories     Meat and Poultry    Pork

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 12

8 (4 ounce) pork cheeks
salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste
½ cup all-purpose flour for dredging, or as needed
2 tablespoons clarified butter
2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
2 cups hard apple cider
2 cups homemade or low-sodium chicken broth
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh sage leaves
1 teaspoon finely chopped fresh rosemary leaves
1 small yellow onion, diced
1 small carrot, diced
1 rib celery, diced

Steps:

  • Season both sides of pork cheeks with salt and pepper. Sprinkle with flour and press it into the meat to coat thoroughly.
  • Heat clarified butter in a pan over medium-high heat. Sear meat on both sides until richly browned, adjusting heat lower if necessary. When cheeks are browned, reduce heat to medium. Transfer cheeks to a plate to rest.
  • Remove all but 2 tablespoons fat from the skillet. Add onions, carrots, and celery to skillet. Cook and stir until softened and sweet, seasoning with a pinch of salt. Add vinegar and stir to deglaze the pan. Pour in the cider and chicken stock. Bring to a simmer. Add sage and rosemary. Reduce heat to low and transfer cheeks back to pan. Cover. Cook until fork tender but not falling apart, 2 to 3 hours depending on the size of the pork cheeks. Transfer to a plate.
  • Bring liquid to a boil over high heat, skimming off fat as it rises to the surface. Reduce volume of liquid by about 60 to 70%. Sauce will start to thicken up. Taste for salt and season as needed. Transfer cheeks back to liquid. Continue to cook over medium-low heat until cheeks are heated through and tender and sauce is thick enough to coat cheeks.

HOW TO COOK PORK CHEEKS - GREAT BRITISH CHEFS
Pork cheeks, as the name would suggest, are the little nuggets of flesh found in the cheek of the pig. Not to be confused with the jowl, which is the surrounding area of the face and is more fat (albeit tasty fat) than meat. The cheeks are meaty little portions marbled with fat, which make them melt-in-the-mouth tender once slow cooked.
