Philly Roast Pork Sandwich

Many people say that the cheesesteak is Philly’s #1 sandwich. But talk to locals, and many will say the cheesesteak is good, but the real #1 is the Philly Roast Pork. Tender pork butt roasted in the flavors of italian sausage with provolone and broccoli rabe. Not only may it be better than a cheesesteak, but it's much easier to execute it well at home.

It seems like a tasty treat. I'll have to whip it up, but I like using my Traeger for cooking, so I'll likely transfer all the steps that were done in the oven to my grill. I like every single one of your recipes. coreball

Then it's basically pulled pork, good but it won't be the same flavors:-)

I was looking for the PhillyCheese Steak here and found this recipe.

WOW this sandwich is awesome. I was crushed for time and could only marinade for 1 hour. Next time I will try an overnite marinade. So tender and juciy with plenty of flavor!


Even the Rabe was pretty darn good in this sandwich. Rabe on its own is very bitter but works very well here. Must be a New York / Italian thing.

This is fantastic. I have made it 3 times now and shared with a friend. What is the pasta recipe that you use. I took some of the fat and broth sauteed dome diced onions. Added a little garlic and then crushed tomatoes. A little oregano and parsley and a few basil sprigs.

I am trying to make a sauce for ravioli made from the pork, provolone, and rabe. I would incorporate more meat to convert to a straight pasta sauce. The sauce complimented but distracted from the ravioli - it is a work in progress. I will try butter sage or light pomodoro sauce next. Raviolis need more cheese may go with some rigotta. Sharp provolone a must.
