A delightful centerpiece for your holiday table, this pork crown roast is paired with a flavorful apple herb stuffing.
Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Mix Worcestershire sauce, garlic powder, salt, and pepper in a small bowl.
Mixing the seasoning beforehand ensures even distribution.
Rub the seasoning mixture all over the pork crown roast.
Ensure the seasoning covers all surfaces for maximum flavor.
Place the roast bone-side down in a roasting pan and cover with foil.
Covering the roast helps retain moisture during cooking.
Roast in the preheated oven for 2 hours.
Use a timer to avoid overcooking.
While the roast is cooking, melt butter in a skillet over medium heat.
Melt the butter gently to avoid burning.
Add chopped onion and celery to the skillet and sauté until softened.
Stir frequently to prevent sticking.
Transfer the sautéed vegetables to a mixing bowl.
Allow the vegetables to cool slightly before adding other ingredients.
Mix in bread crumbs, diced apples, poultry seasoning, parsley, and apple juice. Adjust seasoning with salt and pepper.
The stuffing should be moist but not soggy.
Remove the roast from the oven and carefully fill the center with the stuffing.
Use a spoon to gently pack the stuffing into the roast.
Return the roast to the oven, uncovered, and cook until the internal temperature reaches 170°F (77°C), about 1.5 hours.
Check the temperature in the thickest part of the meat.
Let the roast rest for 10 minutes before serving.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, keeping the meat moist.
Serve the roast with the stuffing and garnish as desired.
Consider garnishing with fresh herbs for a festive touch.
