Ingredients
  

  • 4 bone-in pork shoulder steaks 3/4 to 1 inch thick, about 3 lbs total
  • 1 tbsp olive oil
  • 1/2 tsp fine salt
  • 1/4 tsp black pepper
  • 1 medium yellow onion diced
  • 3 garlic cloves minced
  • 1 can 28 oz crushed tomatoes
  • 1/3 cup dry white wine
  • 1 tsp dried basil
  • 1/2 tsp dried oregano
  • 1/3 cup pitted green olives halved
  • 1 tbsp drained capers

Method
 

  1. Season pork steaks with salt and pepper. Heat oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat and brown steaks for 2 minutes per side in 2 batches; transfer to a 6-quart slow cooker.
  2. Cook onion in the skillet for 5 minutes, add garlic for 30 seconds, then wine and scrape the browned bits. Stir in tomatoes, basil and oregano and pour over the steaks.
  3. Cover and cook on low for 6 to 7 hours until fork-tender and at least 145°F, usually near 190°F for these shoulder steaks.
  4. Lift steaks carefully to a platter and rest for at least 3 minutes. Stir olives and capers into the sauce; if watery, simmer the sauce in a saucepan for 5 to 10 minutes before serving.
  5. Spoon the chunky tomato-olive sauce around each intact steak and serve.
