Postupak

Korak po korak

1
Preheat your oven to 160°C (325°F).
Oko 10 min
2
Pat the pork shoulder dry with paper towels. Rub the salt, black pepper, caraway seeds, and garlic generously all over the pork, especially into the scored rind.
Oko 5 min
Napomena kuhara: Ensure the rind is very dry for crispy crackling.
3
Place the roughly chopped yellow onion, carrot, and celery stalk in the bottom of a roasting pan.
Oko 2 min
4
Pour the vegetable broth and beer into the roasting pan around the vegetables.
Oko 1 min
5
Place the seasoned pork shoulder, rind-side up, on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan.
Oko 1 min
6
Roast for 2.5 hours, basting occasionally with the pan juices. The internal temperature should reach 70°C (160°F).
Oko 2 h 30 min
Napomena kuhara: If the liquids evaporate too quickly, add a little more broth or water.
7
After 2.5 hours, increase the oven temperature to 220°C (425°F).
8
Pour the water over the rind of the pork. This helps to create steam and puff up the crackling.
Oko 1 min
Napomena kuhara: Be careful not to wash off the seasonings.
9
Continue roasting for another 20-30 minutes, or until the rind is beautifully puffed and crispy. Watch it carefully to prevent burning.
Oko 30 min
Napomena kuhara: If the crackling isn't crisping, you can use the grill/broiler function for a few minutes, but keep a very close eye on it.
10
Remove the Schäufele from the oven and transfer it to a cutting board. Cover loosely with foil and let it rest for 15 minutes before carving.
Oko 15 min
Napomena kuhara: Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the meat more tender.
11
While the meat rests, strain the pan juices through a fine-mesh sieve into a saucepan. Discard the spent vegetables.
Oko 3 min
12
Simmer the strained pan juices over medium heat until slightly reduced and thickened to your desired gravy consistency.
Oko 5 min
Napomena kuhara: Taste and adjust seasoning if necessary. You can add a cornstarch slurry for a thicker gravy.
13
Carve the Schäufele and serve immediately with the prepared gravy.
