EASY Prime Rib

 

Harter House Supermarkets will cut the Bone from your Rib Roast 
and tie it back on, making for easy slicing.

Harter House will also season you roast for FREE 
with Pappy's or Santa Maria Seasoning.

Seasoning

Cracked Black Pepper,

Kosher Salt

Garlic.

(or your seasonings of choice)

Instructions

Bake in a 350 degree oven -  approximately 2 1/2 to 3 hours - depending on size.

The important part is to use a meat thermometer.

Remove the prime rib from the oven when your meat thermometer says 120 - 125 degrees.

Allow the meat to rest at least 15 minutes before slicing.

 

NOTE

If your slices look too rare, let the slices sit in the Au Jus Gravy for just a bit.

It will brown right up and be very tender.

And Don't forget the Horseradish sauce. YUM.

Roasted Potatoes & Spicy Chorizo

A simple skillet meal and it’s so easy to add extra stuff to it.

Some extra veggies you want to use up.

Add some scrambled eggs and you’ve got a wake-up-your-taste-buds egg, potato and chorizo breakfast.

Or add some spinach leaves … toss those in during the final stir so they just wilt a little bit before serving to get some extra greens on your plate.

Or how about sliced zucchini or squash … sauté those a little bit along with the onions and bell peppers and follow the recipe as written.

Baby carrots would be a great addition … roast those alongside the potatoes before adding to the skillet.

Ingredients

• 1 pound baby new potatoes, quartered (substitute with chopped sweet potatoes )
• 1 Tbsp olive oil
• 1 tsp oregano
• 1/4 tsp garlic powder
• Salt & pepper to taste
• 8 ounces uncooked Harter House pork chorizo
• 1/2 cup chopped white onion
• 1 cup diced bell peppers
• 1 Tbsp fresh parsley, chopped

Instructions

1. Preheat oven 425º F
2. In a medium bowl, add potatoes with olive oil, oregano, and garlic powder. Mix well and season with salt and pepper to taste.
3. Spread out potatoes on a baking sheet. Place in center oven and roast about 20 minutes, or until potatoes are golden and tender.
4. While potatoes are roasting, cook chorizo in a stovetop skillet over medium-high heat until browned and cooked through. Remove meat from skillet and temporarily set aside.
5. Next add onions and peppers to the hot skillet with a little more olive oil if needed. Season with a little salt and pepper if desired. Sauté until tender, about 4-5 minutes.
6. Finally, return cooked chorizo to the hot skillet. Add in the roasted potatoes. Stir everything together until warmed through. Garnish with fresh parsley and enjoy.

Sour Meat and Dumplings

This is a family recipe. It was served in our home often, when I was growing up.
My sister-in-law, Lisa, was making it last weekend, so of course that made me hungry for it and I made it yesterday.

It was published in our  first edition Harter House cookbook.
A recipe by Barbara Bettlach. (my mom)

This is a German / Bohemian recipe.

Sour Meat and Dumplings

Any Beef Roast  (I used a 1.5 lb. chuck roast)
White Onion, diced
4 slices bacon, uncooked and diced
2 cups white vinegar (off brand, like Best Choice)
2 cups water
10-14 whole cloves
10-14 Whole Allspice
4 Tablespoons flour
1 1/2 cups whole milk

Rinse and salt beef roast.  Dice onion and bacon.  Put on top of roast.  Put water and vinegar in pan around the roast.  Sprinkle whole Allspice and whole Cloves in the vinegar water. Cover and cook.  I  left the roast in a 350 degree oven for almost 4 hours.  It was probably done at 3 hours.  When Roast is done,  take out of liquid.  To make gravy: in a small container, whisk flour and milk together so that it doesn't clump up.  Pour mixture into hot (not boiling) vinegar and water.

Drop Dumplings 
(I cut this down by a third, because I was only making it for about 4 servings)

Original recipe calls for
4 cups flour
1 tsp salt
1/2 tsp baking powder
3 eggs
1 3/4 cup water

In a large bowl, mix together flour, salt, baking powder and eggs. Add water slowly.  Mixture should be sticky and not smooth.  Spoon into a large pot of boiling water.  Boil 10 - 12 minutes.  Stir when all are put in water to help from sticking to the bottom.

Combine meat and dumplings in the gravy and enjoy

Note: if there is to much water mixed into the drop dumplings they will not hold together well.

. 

The chuck roast just shredded with my fork.
And my meat and dumplings really soaked up the gravy.
Very delicious!

Chipotle-Marinated Pork Tenderloin with Black Bean Salsa

The benefits of pork tenderloin go on and on: It's low in fat and calories, easy to prepare, quick to cook, affordable, and absorbs seasoning and other flavors easily.

And I always enjoy a Black Bean Salsa. 

Here, pork tenderloin is marinated in a Southwestern chipotle blend, seared in a grill pan, and served with a fiber-rich bean and tomato salsa.

Ingredients

1 can(s) chipotle chile, in adobo sauce, (for pork)
3 clove(s) garlic
1/2 cup(s) coarsely chopped white onion, (for pork)
2 tablespoon(s) fresh lime juice, (for pork)
1 teaspoon(s) sherry vinegar
1 teaspoon(s) dried Mexican oregano OR Italian Seasoning
1 pound(s) pork tenderloin, trimmed of fat
1 can(s) (19 ounces) black beans, drained and rinsed
1 cup(s) grape tomatoes, quartered
1/4 cup(s) finely chopped white onion, (for salsa)
1/4 cup(s) finely chopped fresh cilantro
3 tablespoon(s) fresh lime juice, (for salsa)
2 teaspoon(s) minced canned chipotle chile, in adobo sauce, (for salsa)
1/2 teaspoon(s) ground cumin

________________________________________

Directions

1. Make the pork marinade: Process chile, garlic, onion, lime juice, vinegar, and oregano in a blender until smooth. Rub marinade all over the pork. Transfer pork to a dish, and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate overnight.

2. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Heat a grill pan over high heat. Grill pork until seared on all sides, about 2 minutes per side. Transfer pan to the oven; cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted into center of meat registers 145 degrees, 20 to 25 minutes. Let pork stand at room temperature 5 to 10 minutes before slicing.

3. Meanwhile, Make the Salsa: Stir together the black beans, tomatoes, onion, cilantro, lime juice, chile, and cumin in a small bowl. Serve with the pork.

Pork tenderloin is one of the leanest cuts of meat.

Garlic-Herb Crusted Boneless Pork Sirloin Roast

We love to make pork roast for a company meal because it adapts beautifully to a wide variety of seasonings and sauces, and it always yields great results. This recipe features a simple, flavorful rub made with an ample quantity of garlic and an assortment of fresh herbs. It's fabulous on this boneless cut of pork.

Ingredients:

2-1/2 to 3-pound boneless pork roast (pork sirloin or Pork Loin)

For the rub:

3 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

2 to 3 teaspoons fresh garlic, finely chopped

1-1/2 teaspoons kosher salt

3/4 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper

1-1/2 teaspoons fresh sage, chopped

1-1/2 teaspoons fresh rosemary, chopped

2 teaspoons fresh thyme, chopped

2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest

Boneless Pork Roast Preparation:

Bring the roast to room temperature by removing it from the refrigerator 30 minutes before cooking.

Make the rub by combining the olive oil, garlic, salt, pepper, sage, rosemary, thyme and orange zest in a small bowl.

Preheat the oven to 350°F.

Using your hands, coat the roast completely with the prepared rub. Place on a rack in a roasting pan and pour 1/2-inch of water into the bottom of the pan.

Roast the pork until a thermometer inserted into the center of the roast registers 145°F, 50 to 60 minutes.

Remove from the oven, tent loosely with foil and allow the roast to rest for 15 minutes before carving.

Slice and serve on a platter garnished with sprigs of fresh herbs.

Makes 6 servings

Boneless pork sirloin roasts generally weigh between 2-1/2 and 3 pounds, enough for about 6 servings. If you're having a larger group, simply cook two roasts side by side. This cut cooks fairly quickly, is easy to carve, and, when done to the proper internal temperature, turns out tender, juicy and full of flavor.

It's a great choice for smaller gatherings, or if you're short on time or oven space and you won't be sacrificing quality or flavor.

3/4 cup (1 1/2 sticks) unsalted butter, chilled and cut into small pieces

Heat oven to 350° F. In a large bowl, toss the peaches, granulated sugar, and 1 tablespoon of the flour. Transfer to a shallow 3-quart baking dish.
