Pork Stew Recipe

Pork Stew is not only easy to make, but it’s also delicious! Tender pork shoulder, potatoes and veggies create a hearty and thick stew that will warm your belly from the inside out!

Good news! The best cuts of meat for pork stew also happen to be the most affordable. Pork shoulder is a cut of meat that is great for cooking low and slow (it’s the same cut of meat I use for pulled pork or green chili).

Choose the cut of pork based on your cooking method. Tougher and tastier meats are good for the “low and slow” treatment. More tender and mild tasting cuts (like pork tenderloin) benefit from a quicker cook (like roasting).

This recipe is made much like a lamb or beef stew recipe. Besides the obvious ingredient of pork, this recipe calls for broth, white and sweet potatoes and veggies. It’s flavored with savory herbs, including rosemary and oregano.

Don’t forget the homemade garlic bread or flaky biscuits; it’s so tasty you will want something to soak up every last drop in your bowl.

Pork Stew is a simple and substantial one pot meal that is guaranteed to satisfy your family. It doesn’t need much on the side. Serve it over rice, or with cornbread muffins or rolls and butter, for a filling and satisfying meal.

Pork stew freezes remarkably well. Just place leftovers in freezer containers, leaving an inch of headspace for expansion. It will keep for several days in the refrigerator or up to four months in the freezer.
