Night one: barbecue pork sandwiches
Night two: pork burritos
Night three: provencal pork stew
Here are the recipes:
Barbecue Pork Sandwiches
Pork butt or shoulder roast
1 bottle of barbecue sauce
Hamburger buns or hard rolls
- Place pork in a crock pot. Lightly salt and pepper and cook for 8 hours on low
- Take a portion of roast pork and break it apart with a fork. Mix in sauce to taste.
- Serve on bun/roll with more sauce if desired.
Pork Burritos
left-over pork roast
tortilla shells
rice (cooked)
shredded cheese
avocado
cilantro
lime
red onions
sour cream
whatever else you like on your burritos
- Heat tortillas either individually over open gas flame (use tongs...your fingers will thank you) or wrap several tortillas in tin foil and heat for 15 minutes in the over at 300F.
- have each person determine their topping preference.
Provencal Pork Stew
left-over pork roast
1-2 large cans whole tomatoes
1 can white beans, drained (or cook your own ahead of time)
2 carrots, diced
2 celery stalks, diced
1 small onion, diced
chicken broth
4 cloves garlic, pressed in garlic press or crushed and finely minced
wine (preferably a dry white, but red wine works too)
herbs d'Provence
Salt and pepper
- Saute the onion, carrots and celery until onions become slightly translucent, about 10 minutes. Add garlic and saute for 30 seconds, until fragrant, then add the wine. You could also replace wine with broth, if you prefer.
- Crush the tomatoes lightly with your hands or the back of a spoon as you add them to the other sautéed vegetables. Add beans and 1 tsp. herbs d'provence or to taste. Cook until slightly thickened but carrots and celery are still slightly crisp, about 15-20 minutes.
- Add salt and pepper to taste and add pork and heat through.
Sounds good - I'm going to whip out the old crock pot and try it one of these days.
