Crock Pot Pork Shoulder with Gravy


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

OMG…. Melt in your mouth tender. Gravy so good you could drink it from a straw. Seasoned just right and flavors you don’t expect to explode in your mouth .  This is why I call this one of my favorites if not THE ALL TIME FAVORITE!   Try it and see for yourself.  You will go nuts over it.

 Crock Pot Pork Shoulder

 

1 Pork Shoulder or Pork Butt

3 tablespoons olive oil

salt and pepper

1 large onion

1 tablespoon garlic, chopped

1/4 cup soy sauce

1/4 cup Newman's Own Balsamic Dressing

1/2 cup water

1/2 cup brown sugar

 

GRAVY:

2 tablespoons of drippings from the crockpot

2 packs McCormick pork gravy mix

1/4 cup water

1/4 cup cream or whole milk

1 (10 ounce) can cream of mushroom soup


 

Pat your roast dry with a paper towel and generously season it on both sides with salt and pepper. Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat it over medium high heat. Carefully place the roast in the pan and turn it until you get a golden sear on both sides.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Add the olive oil to a large skillet and heat it over medium high heat. Carefully place the roast in the pan and turn it until you get a golden sear on both sides.


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 



Spray a 3–4-quart crock pot with cooking spray. Place the seared pork in the pot.  Then add the onions and set aside.

In a small mixing bowl add your garlic, soy sauce, vinaigrette, water and brown sugar. Whisk the ingredients around making sure the brown sugar gets dissolved, then pour it all over the top of the roast. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Cover the crock pot and cook on high for 4-5 hours.  When the pork has cooked through the temp should read 160 degrees.



 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remove the roast from the crock pot and set aside.  In the same skillet you browned your roast in, add a couple tablespoons of juices left in the crock pot. make sure you get some onions in that scoopful. Add both packages of Pork gravy mix, 1/4 cup cream or whole milk, 1/4 cup water and 1 can cream of mushroom soup (undiluted). Whisk it together to combine. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 Heat over medium high heat until mixture starts to boil. Then turn the heat to low and stir occasionally as it thickens.  

Slice your roast and pour your gravy over it.  Serve with a vegetable and mashed potatoes.

Creamy Cheesy Potato Wedges

 Creamy Cheesy Potato Wedges

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I love all potato dishes… mashed, boiled, creamed, baked…I’ve never met a potato recipe I didn’t like.  I truly love this one that I found on my Friend Marie’s blog over at The English Kitchen. I made a few slight changes and it turned out so good!  Cheesy, creamy and smokey from the bacon…. This is a keeper my friends!

 

Creamy Cheesy Potato Wedges

 

  • 3 large Russet potatoes, washed and unpeeled
  • 1 tablespoon butter, melted 
  • 1/2 cup heavy cream
  • 2 slices of bacon, cooked and roughly chopped
  • 1 cup grated Monterrey Jack cheese
  • salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

 

Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Spray a baking dish with non-stick spray.

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Put your potatoes in a large pot of salted water just to cover. Bring to a boil. Boil until they are tender when you pierce with a fork.  Remove from water and drain. Set aside to cool for about 15 minutes or until cool enough to handle.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cut each potato into 4 evenly sized wedges. Toss with the melted butter and then arrange in the baking dish. Pour the cream over the potatoes and then add salt and black pepper. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Top with the grated cheese and then the chopped cooked bacon. You can add more or less cheese. I love cheese so I put on a whole cup! Add your chopped bacon.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Bake for about 25 minutes and pierce with a fork to make sure potatoes are tender. If not, return and continue baking. At this point you can cover with foil if you need to. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Remove when the potatoes are cooked through and the sauce in bubbling and the cheese has melted. Serve warm.  YUM!

Corned Beef Hash and Eggs

 

 I love this breakfast!  Sometimes, I get a craving for it and I will take a few shortcuts just to hurry up and get it on the table. This time I simply opened a can of corned beef hash in a can and added some packaged hash brown diced potatoes to it. I fried it up nice and crispy. That crispy corn beef hash topped with perfect sunny side up eggs and a side of toast for dipping that rich glorious yolk. Oh, my goodness, it’s just so good! 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Crispy Hash & Eggs Breakfast Skillet

1 package (32 ounces) frozen cubed hash browns

1-1/2 cups chopped onion

2 tablespoons olive oil

2 tablespoons butter

1 can corned beef hash

1/2 teaspoon salt

4 large eggs

Salt and pepper to taste

 

Add your oil and butter to a large skillet.  Fry the potatoes and onions over medium high heat until potatoes are browned and onion is tender. Stir in the corned beef and add salt and pepper to taste.  Using a spatula, pack it down firmly to form a solid cake on bottom of skillet.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Cook, undisturbed, for 4 minutes, then, with the spatula, invert the hash, a portion at a time, and pat down tight in skillet. Repeat the process every minute or two until the potatoes are thoroughly cooked and crisp… about 8 minutes longer.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Make 4 wells in the hash browns. 

 


 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


Break one egg into each well. Sprinkle with salt and pepper. 



Cover and continue to cook on low heat until eggs reach desired doneness.  I like my yolks runny for toast dipping but my whites must     be set and solid. 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 


 

 Remove from skillet and garnish with parsley and chives.  

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Oh, my goodness...I could eat this morning, noon and night!
