Bone-In Pork Roast with Broccoli Rabe,
Sweet Italian Sausage, and Roasted Peaches

Recipe courtesy Chef Tyler Florence
Food Network: Food 911
Yield: 8 servings
Prep Time: 15 minutes
Cook Time: 2 hours
Difficulty: Medium

1 center-cut bone-in pork roast, about 5 pounds
1 gallon water
1 cup kosher salt
1 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon whole peppercorns
1 bunch fresh thyme, divided
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
Olive oil
4 carrots, peeled
1 head garlic, split
1 onion, halved
2 shallots, halved
1 pound sweet Italian sausage
2 garlic cloves, slivered
Pinch red pepper flakes
Pinch fennel seed
1 1/2 pounds broccoli rabe, trimmed
2 cups chicken stock
2 tablespoons balsamic vinegar
1 tablespoon honey
1 tablespoon whole mustard seed
2 tablespoons fresh tarragon
1 dozen peaches
2 cups apple juice
1 tablespoon butter

Have butcher cut the chine bone in between each rib of the pork roast to make carving easier. Leave the fat cap on for added moisture and flavor.
Line a large stockpot or bucket with a plastic bag. Pour water into the bag
and dissolve salt and brown sugar. Add peppercorns and a few thyme
sprigs. Place the pork roast in the bag of brine. Tie the bag closed so the
pork is submerged. Refrigerate for 6 hours, the brine will tenderize
the meat.
Remove pork from the brine and dry thoroughly with paper towels.
Preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Lay thyme sprigs all over the pork roast, season with salt and pepper, then secure with butcher’s twine to help hold
the shape.
Coat a roasting pan with a little olive oil and set on 2 burners over high
heat until almost smoking. Sear the pork, fat side down, until caramelized. Turn the roast to brown all sides, this should take about 10 minutes.
To flavor the pork drippings, scatter carrots, garlic, onion, shallots and
more thyme sprigs in the pan, then transfer the roast to oven. Roast until
a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the roast registers 150 degrees F, approximately 1 hour.
Heat olive oil in a large deep skillet over medium heat. Brown the sausage links on all sides until cooked through. Remove the links from the pan and slice on a bias. Add slivered garlic, red pepper flakes and fennel seed, stir
to incorporate. Return the sausage back to the pan, along with broccoli
rabe and chicken broth. Sauté with the stock for 5 minutes until the rabe
is wilted.
Whisk together balsamic vinegar, honey, mustard seed, tarragon, and
about 1/4 cup olive oil. Slice peaches in half lengthwise and remove pits.
Pour the marinade over the peaches, tossing to coat. Place peaches cut
side down in a baking pan and roast for 12 to 15 minutes until soft.
Remove the pork to a cutting board and let it rest while preparing the pan sauce. Discard the aromatic vegetables from the roasting pan, set pan on
2 burners over medium heat. Deglaze with apple juice, scraping up the
brown bits stuck to the bottom of the pan. Reduce by a third. Season
with salt and pepper; whisk in butter to smooth out.
Cut the twine and carve the roast. Serve family style on a platter with
broccoli rabe, sausage, and roasted peaches. Drizzle sauce over meat
before serving.
