Steps
Read instructions and get ready to cook
Prepare the pork shoulder
Cut the pork shoulder into 2-inch cubes. Season the pork with salt and black pepper.
Prepare the vegetables
Chop the onions, carrots, and celery stalks into large chunks. Mince the garlic cloves.
Brown the pork
In a large, heavy-bottomed pot or Dutch oven, heat the olive oil over medium-high heat. Add the pork cubes and brown on all sides, about 8-10 minutes total. Remove the pork from the pot and set aside.
Sauté the vegetables
In the same pot, add the chopped onions, carrots, celery, and minced garlic. Sauté until the vegetables are softened, about 5-7 minutes.
Add the tomato paste and wine
Stir in the tomato paste and cook for 1-2 minutes. Pour in the red wine and bring the mixture to a boil, scraping up any browned bits from the bottom of the pot.
Add the broth and herbs
Add the beef broth, thyme sprigs, and bay leaves to the pot. Bring the mixture back to a boil.
Braise the pork
Return the browned pork to the pot, nestling it into the liquid and vegetables. Reduce the heat to low, cover the pot, and let the pork simmer for 2 1/2 to 3 hours, or until it is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork.
Remove the herbs and serve
Remove the thyme sprigs and bay leaves from the pot. Serve the Wine-Braised Pork Shoulder hot, with the braising liquid and vegetables spooned over the top.
