Stuffed Pork Roast with Pan Gravy
- 2- 1/2 sticks Butter
- 2 cubes Chicken Bouillon Cubes
- 2 Tablespoons Parsley, Dried
- 2 whole Onions
- 3 stalks Celery
- 3 whole Carrots
- 10 slices Bread
- 1- 1/2 pound Boneless Pork Roast
- 1- 1/2 cup Chicken Broth
- 1- 1/2 cup Cold Water
- 2 Tablespoons Cornstarch
- Salt And Pepper, to taste
- Preheat your Oven to 375F.
- Melt 2.5 sticks of butter in a skillet or pan.
- Once melted, add the chicken bouillon cubes and allow them to dissolve.
- Meanwhile, chop your parsley, onions and celery into fine dices.
- Once bouillon cubes have dissolved in the melted butter, add in your diced veggies and let them cook over medium heat until onions are soft.
- While they cook, slice you carrots length-wise and place in the bottom of a Dutch oven.
- This will be your rack for your roast to sit on.
- Take your bread and tear it into rough pieces.
- (Or, in my case, I had hot dog buns that needed to be used!)
- Set aside.
- Take your roast, rinse in cold water, pat dry and place on a clean surface.
- Take a sharp knife and do a round roll butterfly on it.
- So, cut it as if you are unrolling it so you can spread on your stuffing and roll the roast back up.
- Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
- Once your onions are soft, take your pan off the hot burner and add in your bread cubes.
- Mix and mix and mix until it resembles stuffing!
- Then spread your stuffing mix neatly across the surface of your pork roast.
- (If you have more stuffing than you need, set extra aside to serve as a side).
- Gently roll the roast back up and place (opening cut side down) onto the carrots in the Dutch oven.
- Sprinkle top of roast with salt and pepper.
- Pour 1.5 cups of chicken broth into the Dutch oven.
- Place a lid on your Dutch oven and place into your oven for 40 minutes.
- After 40 minutes, remove lid and increase your oven temperature to 400F and continue cooking for about another 30 minutes.
- Cooking times will vary depending on size of your roast and your oven.
- To be sure pork is done, use a meat thermometer (internal temperature should be at 160F and juices should run clear).
- Once done, set the roast on serving platter to rest and soak in juices, vented with foil, for about 10 minutes.
- Garnish platter with the carrots and extra stuffing, slice roast and serve with homemade mashed potatoes.
- For your pan gravy.
- Take your Dutch oven with juices in it and place on burner.
- Bring to a slow boil and mix with a water/cornstarch mixture until you get the desired consistency youd like for your gravy.
- I use 1.5 cups cold water to 2 Tablespoons of cornstarch, but you can adjust to suit you tastes.
- Enjoy!
