Slow cooked pork belly and loin - James Martin

[oldcelt]

On today's Saturday Kitchen (UK BBC - 17 September 2016) James Martin made slow cooked pork belly and loin (as one rolled piece), cooking for for five hours at 150C. He served it with dauphinoise potatoes. I've searched high and low for the recipe but failed to find it.

Can anyone help please?

The combination of belly and loin we make is called Porchetta and is roasted in the oven. Martin has several recipes for it. Welcome to DC.

Brilliant - thanks a million. I obviously used the wrong search combination in Google!

This looks great, have to wait until Beloved Wife goes on a business trip, because she is Jewish.

Think this type of recipe could be adapted to a fatty beef cut? Skirt steak, or rump roast pounded well flat with a meat tenderizer?

Thoughts?

Personally, I'd try it exactly as the recipe as a first attempt. That will give you an idea of what might be achieved with changed ingredients.

I'm also in the position of "She who must be obeyed" having different dietary requirements but, luckily for me, she travels widely as she works for an international charity organisation.

My Beloved Wife is gentle about it, and we have a negotiated treaty about shellfish, we don't want to go full Kosher, and both adore seafood. But I avoid pork with her about, and I do our food buying and cooking, a deal I negotiated which involves her as responsible for laundry; great trade in my book.

There are such excellent pork recipes, and the one thing that kills me is that pork is usually on sale, but heck, small sacrifice for the married bliss.

I kind of like being in charge of cooking and food, I know what is in the fridge and freezer, and Beloved Wife is kind of banned from my kitchen without permission, particularly after the pancake incident last year, I mean how does one even get burned pancake batter on the ceiling?

The imagination boggeles!

[erehweslefox]

As best as I can CSI it, the batter started to burn, 'cause the heat was on too high, and she was using the cast iron skillet, and did not realize that the handle gets quite hot, so there was an ouchie, combined with a kind of desperate throwing of the skillet. which ended up spraying somewhat burnt, somewhat raw pancake batter quite over everything, destroying a cabinet door (they don't like being hit by a Lodge cast iron skillet thrown near as hard as a 32 year old woman can throw it), some dished behind it, and an accommodation that I am in charge of the kitchen. I will cook to order (just give me lead time for ingredients), but Beloved wife can use the kettle, with some supervision.

That sounds like a great recipe, but I have no idea where in the States you would get a pork loin with the belly attached. Now I saw pork belly for sale at Trader Joe's just the other day, but the package didn't say anything about a pork loin coming with it.
