Categories     main-dish

Time 5h20m

Yield 8 to 10 servings

Number Of Ingredients 10

One 3 1/2- to 4-pound pork loin
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/4 teaspoon ground ginger
1/8 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1 tablespoon cooking oil
2 cups chicken broth
2 tablespoons fresh lemon juice
1 tablespoon soy sauce
3 tablespoons cornstarch

Steps:

  • Trim the visible fat from the loin. If necessary, cut the roast to fit into a 3 1/2-, 4- or 5-quart slow cooker. In a small bowl, combine the garlic powder, ginger, thyme and 1/4 teaspoon pepper. Rub the spice mixture over the entire surface of the loin.
  • In a large skillet, heat the oil over medium to medium-high heat and brown the loin slowly on all sides. Drain off the fat. Transfer the loin to the slow cooker. Combine the chicken broth, lemon juice and soy sauce in a small bowl; pour over the loin. Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours or on high for 4 to 5 hours. When the roast is done, transfer the meat to a serving platter and cover to keep it warm.
  • To make the gravy, pour the juices from the slow cooker into a glass measuring cup. Skim off the fat. Measure 2 cups of liquid, adding water to the juices if necessary to make 2 cups. Transfer the juices to a saucepan, reserving 1/2 cup. Stir the cornstarch into the reserved 1/2 cup of juices until dissolved, then stir into the juices in the saucepan. Heat over medium heat, stirring frequently, until the gravy is thickened and bubbly, 2 to 3 minutes. Cook and stir 2 minutes more. Season the gravy to taste with salt and pepper. Slice the roast and serve it with the gravy.

Tips:

  • Select the perfect pork loin: Choose a pork loin that is about 2-3 pounds, with a uniform thickness throughout. This will ensure even cooking.
  • Make sure your oven is preheated: Always preheat your oven to the desired temperature before placing the pork loin inside. This helps to ensure that the pork cooks evenly and quickly.
  • Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the pork loin is cooked to perfection, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat. The internal temperature should read 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
  • Let the pork loin rest: Once the pork loin is cooked, let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork loin.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Pork loin pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a tangy sauce.

With its juicy, tender texture and versatile flavor, pork loin is a delicious and satisfying dish that is perfect for any occasion.
