Ingredients

  • 2 pounds boneless pork loin
  • 1/2 cup plus 2 tablespoons Big Daddy Seasoning, recipe follows
  • 1/4 cup grapeseed oil
  • Kosher salt
  • 1 1/2 pounds fresh broccoli rabe, cleaned and roughly chopped
  • 2 tablespoons chopped fresh garlic
  • 2 tablespoons red pepper flakes
  • 4 to 6 ciabatta rolls
  • 1 pound provolone, sliced
  • Cracked black pepper

Directions

Preheat oven to 375 degrees F.

Rub pork loin with 1/2 cup Big Daddy Seasoning and allow to sit at room temperature for 15 minutes. In a large cast-iron pan over medium heat, add 2 tablespoons grapeseed oil; Seer pork loin on all sides and both ends.

Add pork to a roasting pan with rack and roast in oven for approximately 1 hour until internal temperature reaches 155 degrees F. Remove from oven and allow to rest for 5 minutes. Slice pork very thin.

In a large pot of boiling salted water, add broccoli rabe and blanch for 3 to 4 minutes. Strain from water and shock in a bowl of ice water to stop cooking. Drain from ice water.

In a large skillet over medium heat, add remaining oil, garlic and red pepper flakes. Cook until fragrant. Add the cooked broccoli rabe. Add 2 tablespoons Big Daddy Seasoning and mix together. Remove from pan.

Assemble ciabatta rolls upside down; add provolone cheese, pork and broccoli rabe. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Toast sandwiches for 3 to 4 minutes on each side.

Big Daddy Seasoning:

  • 1/2 cup smokey paprika
  • 1/4 cup granulated onion powder
  • 1/4 cup granulated garlic powder
  • 3 tablespoons seasoned salt
  • 1/4 cup fresh cracked pepper
  • 1/2 cup kosher salt

In a large bowl, mix ingredients together.

    My son watched Aaron make this on Big Daddy's House and wanted to make it. That was it, this is a standard recipe in our house now. WE ALL LOVE IT!!!! I make an extra batch of the brocolli rabe with less crushed red pepper for our grandbabies. But otherwise, this is definitely a keeper. Fantastic!! Yummy!! I buy pork loins now whenever they are on sale just for this recipe.

    I only made the broccoli rabe and put it on a roasted turkey sandwich, but it was the best broccoli rabe I have ever made! A tip: I hate when veggies slide around on a sandwich, so I pureed the rabe with a little mayo and then slathered it on the bun before I toasted it.. Amazing!
