Drunken Pork Balls Recipes

DRUNKEN STOVE TOP PORK CHOPS

Steps:

• In a large skillet, heat 2 Tablespoons olive oil over medium-high heat.
• Pat the pork chops dry with paper towel and season well with salt and pepper on both sides.
• In batches, sear each chop until browned on both sides, about 1-2 minutes per side and then place them into a side plate. Make sure you don't overload the pan!
• Once all the pork chops are browned and out of the pan, add the remaining Tablespoon of oil and then add sliced onion and smashed garlic.
• Season them with salt and pepper to taste and saute them stirring constantly for a minute or two.
• Next, add the wine to the pan and scrape up the brown bits with a wooden spoon to deglaze the pan.
• After the wine has simmered for a minute or two, add broth and tomato paste. Stir well to combine and add the pork chops back into the pan. Bring it to a boil.
• Once boiling, reduce the heat to medium, cover and simmer for an hour, stirring periodically. If it starts to dry out, add a little water (I didn't run into this issue). Serve immediately after the hour is up.

DRUNKEN MEATBALLS (WITH CROCK POT INSTRUCTIONS)

Steps:

• Combine the first three ingredients and simmer for 5 minutes, until blended.
• Add meatballs and simmer, covered for about 45 minutes.
• CROCK POT: For the crock pot, prepare sauce as above. Put meatballs (they can be frozen meatballs) into crock pot, pour sauce over and cook on low for 8 to 12 hours.

DRUNKEN PORK BALLS

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450°F. Drizzle the olive oil into a 9 × 13-inch baking dish and use your hand to evenly coat the entire surface. Set aside.
• Combine the ground pork, eggs, bread, bread crumbs, honey, Madeira, rosemary, sage, and garlic in a large mixing bowl and mix by hand until thoroughly incorporated.
• Roll the mixture into round, golf ball-size meatballs (about 1 1/2 inches), making sure to pack the meat firmly. Place the balls in the prepared baking dish, being careful to line them up snugly and in even rows vertically and horizontally to form a grid. The meatballs should be touching one another.
• Roast for 20 minutes, or until the meatballs are firm and cooked through. A meat thermometer inserted into the center of a meatball should read 165°F.
• Allow the meatballs to cool for 5 minutes in the baking dish before serving.

DRUNKEN PORK ROAST AND GRAVY

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 325 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Rub Italian seasoning all over the pork roast (be generous) and set aside.
• In a Dutch oven casserole dish, heat olive oil and bacon grease on medium high.
• Add pork roast and sear on all sides (about 1 or 2 minutes per side).
• Add the onion and garlic on the last turn.
• Remove from heat; add wine; cover and bake for 2-1/2 to 3 hours or until internal temperature reaches 160 degrees Fahrenheit.
• Remove roast from pot and place on cutting board.
• Cover with foil (allowing meat to 'set') and begin making the gravy.
• Place the Dutch oven containing the baked juices (wine sauce) on top of the stove over medium heat.
• In a small bowl, mix the milk and flour until smooth.
• Add the flour mixture to the juices; season with salt and pepper to taste.
• Whisk or stir constantly until you get gravy consistency (about 10 minutes). If gravy becomes too thick, simply add more milk, a little at a time.
• Slice pork and serve with the gravy.
