/ck/ - Food & Cooking

I let the roast sit out for a little while to bring it closer to room temp before cooking. I'm not going to go crazy with seasoning on this thing because I'll be using it in various recipes throughout the week. Probably in tacos, pulled pork, or with Korean BBQ sauce over rice.

>>7010681
Nooo OP you're supposed to be poor. Where are all your limes and avocados?

All I'm putting on the roast is salt, pepper, garlic, and olive oil. These roasts are pretty hard to fuck up when it comes to seasoning, you could put whatever you want on them to cater to the types of dishes you will be making with the pork.

Someone gave me this meme salt and it smells pretty good so I'm gonna use it on the pork roast.

Rubbing the seasoning mixture all over my pork now

>>7010698
Scrambled egg wrap for breakfast. Egg fried rice for lunch. Bean stew for dinner.

Really poor shopping skills from that rich fool but it could possibly last a week if you don't mind repetition. Probably not enough calories or protein and certainly doesn't reach the daily five portions of fruits and vegetables.

There really should be a lifeskills class taught in school that show you how to cook, budget, shop properly, plan out nutritious meals, etc since we now have a generation raised by people who can't even take care of themselves.

Finished with some more salt and pepper

Roasting this fat cap side up in a cast iron pot, this roast is a little too big, oh well.

I started this at 350 degrees for about 15-20 minutes and then I dropped the temp down to 250. It should take about 8 hours to roast now.

Low and slow is key with these pork picnics. You'll need a meat thermometer, 185 degrees at the center is what you want to aim for.

>>7010741
What are you doing? You didn't score the skin, you fool.

What the fuck is a pork picnic? Is this just a meme thread?

>>7010754
It's just a type of cut. It is a pork shoulder with the shank included.

>>7010750
who cares, won't make much difference in the end, pork roasts are retard proof.

>>7010767
Scoring the skin is what you do when roasting pork. It helps it cook more evenly, it allows that marinade you put on before to actually get to the meat, it helps to render the fat and it helps to make the best crackling.

>>7010681

>2015
>not removing the skin

>>7010789
You kiss your mother with that mouth?

>>7010787
I can't find any slow roast pork recipes that scored the pork

I'm sure your right though and not just sperging, the roast will be the worst thing ever.

>>7010789
>removing the skin
just go back to mummy's coloured cereals

>>7010826
I see that you are just a shitposter then. Oh well, could have been a good thread.

make pork carnitas OP

>Recipes for poor people
>Oven on for 8 hours

Yuo ar of genuious

>>7010839
Yeah I created this thread and purposely did not score my pork to trigger one autists on /ck/

>>7010840
That's the plan, I didn't season it for carnitas but I could probably make some sort of carnitas sauce/marinade to toss the meat in when I'm reheating it throughout the week.

>>7010787
and makes virtually no difference when slow cooking. scoring is for when you quick cook with a fairly high heat

>>7010698
what a stupid cunt... avocados, limes, green onions, parsley, garlic? what about 10lbs of fucking potatoes first? bread? dry pasta?

>>7010796
>>7010831

Eating silverskin and enjoying it.

>>7010879
Are you stroking out right now? We are talking about pork, not onions.

>>7010879
>sliverskin
>same as skin

OP's thread is really boring

And I like it.

It's cold and raining outside and this is the perfect way to spend today.

>>7010894
Yeah I know...

I figured I'd post this though because it's my favorite thing to make when I don't want to spend a lot on food for the week.

>>7010894
What thread? He posted a few pictures and then fucked off before even finishing the recipe.

>>7010916
>he's still mad I didn't score the pork

There's a taco bell thread waiting for you

>>7010923
This is me actually, I see that you are still just shitposting and paranoid that everyone is me to boot.

You are getting paranoid over pig skin. Seek help.

>>7010846
Running the oven for 8 hours costs next to nothing.

If someone has electricity (or gas) in the first place, they can afford to use the oven.

>>7010945
I said scoring doesn't matter, some other anon did as well, doesn't sound paranoid to me. Other anons were arguing about leaving the skin on. Who cares.

You're still following the shit post

>>7010976
>Running the oven for 8 hours costs next to nothing.

Where the fuck do you live that running the oven for a third of the day is something poor people can do? My god what a massive expense.

>>7011002
It costs maybe a couple of dollars.

You probably spend more to run your computer and lights while you shitpost on /ck/ all day.

>>7010988
No, the other anon said the OP didn't finish posting his recipe, which he didn't and then the OP started freaking out all paranoid that the other anon was me.

That's not normal behaviour.

>>7011004
>People pointing out that running your oven for 8 hours is a joke of an expense for poor people are just shitposting
>Dollars
Well that explains your retardation.

Are you that paranoid op too?

Was thinking about what else I can make with the pork. I'm just going to add different sauces/marinades when I reheat depending on what I want to make

Carnitas or mojo
BBQ sauce for pulled pork
Chimi churri
Or maybe a cilantro lime sauce

What else?

>semen

>>7011005
ok dr. phil

>>7010846
Actual OP here

I guess it depends on how poor you are obviously
my power bill is about $60, no big deal for me, I'm also cooking enough pork for the week.

>>7011039
Or maybe not everyone lives in America where utilities seem to cost pennies. I don't know where the other guy lives but here at least that would be a considerable expense for poor people.

Even for well off people that would be a shock and it's always funny seeing the reactions to people looking at recipes to make beef jerky when they get to the cooking time part.

>>7011013
Fine. Poor people don't use ovens.

They also wouldn't be spending $12 on fancy pork roasts either, that's clearly beyond their means.

>>7011068
>Fine. Poor people don't use ovens.
And now you're sulking like a child.

>They also wouldn't be spending $12 on fancy pork roasts either
Well actually that would feed a family for days so that is exactly what they should be doing.

Stop acting like a kid because poor people can't do your recipe.

>>7010894

those are the kind of people who cook outdoors in a brick oven or something like that they made themselves, to save money, and their food tastes awesome

>>7011068
OP

This wasn't intended for the homeless lol. There's usually threads here "I have x dollars, what will last me til next friday?" if you're a 3rd worlder, you could roast over a fire in a pot or something. I've had whole pig roasted over a fire in peru before, shit was amazing.

>>7010698
I am pretty sure this dumb cunt quit like a week in

>>7011117
What, are you saying everyone who isn't American cooks outside in the cold?

>>7011128
no but those who live where utilities are ungodly expensive cook shit that's gotta cook low and slow outside in some contraption using wood, like those adobe ovens you see around in mew mexico

>>7011141
Where are you getting that information from?

Utilities are expensive but so if wood. We don't have country sized forests like America does where everyone can just chop down trees for firewood. We would get jailed for that anyway.

People who live where utilities don't cook low and slow at all, unless they have vast forests.

People here just cook quick and efficiently. It's kind of one of the reasons I wanted to look at the poor person cooking general as the op called it.

>>7011158
>wahh op doesn't fit my image of poor so it's a bait thread
that's what you sound like man

>>7011158
OP here

So suggest fast cooking recipes?

Honestly, an oven maintaining 250 degrees for 8 hours probably uses not much more or less electricity than having to fully cook each meal throughout the week. It is bringing the oven up to temperature that uses the most electricity. cooking without heat at all would be cheapest if you are really that poor.

If taste doesn't matter I'm sure there are much cheaper things to cook. You could cut this pork roast into small pieces and cook it quick but it would be very tough.

>>7010881

Onions don't have siliverskin, spotted the homecook or stray stoner from /b/

>>7010885

>willingly consuming tendons and cartilage.

>>7011124
OP, you shouldn't reply to the trolls. They're the same type of people who post in the /r9k/ saying 'you can't be a robot you don't shit in plastic bags and hide them in your closet. They have a very narrow perception of the world and if you don't fit into that perception it will trigger them.

Looks good OP, I'm not poor but I buy picnics all the time, they're just good food. I roast them and use the meat in tons of things, also smoke them for awesome bbq. Pro-tip: save the huge bone that comes out of it for a big pot of beans, which is even cheaper food yet.

>>7011169

Stop trying to save face because you fucked up your postnumbers.

>>7011251
fast cooking also requires using utilities
everyone knows poor people don't cook they just eat spaghetti oh's straight from the can cold, because they can't afford to heat it up

>>7011172
>electricity
Is this the 1970s? Who the hell uses an electric cooker?

>>7010698
lol why the fuck did she buy so many limes? Also lettuce is essentially devoid of anything but trace minerals. Rice, beans, eggs, chicken, bundle of bananas, and frozen broccoli, spices with the leftover money would be much smarter

>>7011255

You did respond to both of those posts, which was the original point, which you're now bragging about... so I don't see a point.

You should save face by killing some Syrians and Africans invading your nation. 65% of London is immigrants, get on that.

We don't have those problems in Cork, they end up disappearing and found months later in bogs half eaten by maggots. (like they deserve).

Onions don't have silverskin and you shouldn't eat the waste of animals. Might as well be sucking feces straight from the anus. Might be the better option.

>>7011275

OP every time you open the oven door to take a pic the oven drops in temperature and takes even more energy to get back up to temp. Your electricity bill is going to bankrupt you.

>>7011309
OP here, I don't think the people in this thread will take kindly to those expensive ingredients
>>7011315
Before I know it I will be homeless

OP, you might already know this, but I'm still just going to throw this out there: injecting a marinade/brine and letting the roast sit in the fridge overnight will make the meat really nice. I use about 1/2C of Jumex pineapple nectar (or mix pineapple and apple juices 50/50), 2 Tbsp salt, 1 Tbsp light brown sugar, and 1 Tbsp Worcestershire sauce. You could go lighter on the salt if you're oven-roasting, as this brine is meant for barbecuing. The bromelain in the pineapple helps break down the connective tissue faster, resulting in more rendered sugars at the end of the cook cycle. The pineapple flavor also breaks down into sugars, so the pork won't taste like meaty Hawaiian Punch.

Like I said, you probably know how to cook a roast, but I learned about the pineapple juice trick from a friend and really like the results.

>>7011326
>Now he is shitposting because his poor person thread turned out to be a rich mans thread

Grow up.

>>7011381
>The bromelain in the pineapple helps break down the connective tissue faster

only if you use fresh juice, anything in a can has been pasteurized.

>this kills the enzyme

I've brined but never injected meat, I wish I had a grill to try that, thx for the tip

>>7011288
Bone-in chicken leg quarters go on sale for like 30 cents/lb, Pork picnic only gets down to like 77 cents/lb. Without sales, they are about the same price and pork picnic tastes better.

>>7011546
Anything you say op. What do I know, I'm just trying to get this poor person thread to have content relevant to poor people.

This could have been a decent thread. Slow cooked pork sounds fucking delicious right about now but /ck/ had to /ck/ and shit all over everything

>>7011551
If you're going to cook 7 meals in a row, 1 for every dinner of the week, you're going to be using more energy than if you ran it once for the same amount of time at a constant low heat.

Too bad, stop crying.

>>7011546

Damn my shit tier oven must be inaccurate, this thing is done already, roasted too quick, hopefully it will still be tender

>>7011631
Forgot pic

>>7010698
take out avo's limes and tortillas and its probably 10 bucks

>>7011638
No reason not to cook it longer if it doesn't seem cooked enough. Pork shoulders have a ton of connective tissue and the fat cap/skin will keep it moist as well.

I usually cook mine until the meat is pretty much falling apart off the bone.

>>7011638
>that $1.50 spoon holder

WHAT THE FUCK, OP IS THE PRESIDENT HOLY SHIT HOW CAN YOU AFFORD THAT.
Reporting, i thought this was a poor people thread

>>7011645
It is 185 degrees at the center, it has only been about 5 hours

>>7011488

Lol bong assuming everyone in the world calls cocktail onions silverskins.

>>7011651
Doesn't mean you automatically have to stop cooking it when it hits 185 degrees. If it doesn't seem tender enough, cook it longer. It'll be fine.

>>7011656
Yeah I just put it back in and lowered the heat a little

Figure about 1 hour of cook time per pound (raw weight). So if your roast was 7.5 pounds at the start, let the bitch ride for another 2.5 hours.

FUCK ALL OF YOU RETARDS WHO MADE THIS THREAD SO SHIT. Good god /ck/, OP made a nice thread for us and you had to shit all over it. GOD DAMNIT I'M SO FUCKING PISSED.

>pay $900 a month with utilities included and a parking space in the suburbs 20 minutes from Midtown Manhattan
>tfw landlord has no clue how to be a landlord and is too cheap to divide the utilities so they pay for both of us.

Honestly she is a good person so I limit my usage of utilities, but in winter that bitch refuses to turn on the heat so I have like 3 space heaters cranked up. But 10 hours using the oven isn't going to make a huge impact on the bill.

>>7011094
He already said that it costs next to nothing and that the pork would last him for the week. The other poster was being insistent that it's a waste of money, so he conceded that maybe this isn't something the extremely poor would prepare in the first place.

I'm glad I found this thread again, my supermarket is selling 8-10 lb bone in picnics for about 8 bucks on sale. Am going to grab one tomorrow and slow cook it.

If I'm using a slow cooker rather than cast iron, will I need to add liquids? I slow cook chicken before and it creates it's own juices.

>>7018244
It'll release a lot of liquid and fat on it's own. I usually put some beer or stock or apple juice in with it anyway though. More liquid to make gravy when it's done

>>7010698
