MAPLE BAKED PORK LOIN ROAST
This is a GREAT recipe. Do not let the ingredients scare you, they combine to make a really great taste. The pork is so moist and tender that it will fall apart when you go to cut it. I find it comes out best with the loin that has two sections. If it is a single loin, it still comes out great, but does not fall apart quite so much. Everyone who tries this loves it so far. It's my husband's favorite and very easy to make. It cooks for 1 hr 45 min - 2 hrs.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
- Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until smoking. Meanwhile, season the pork roast with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, and shake off excess. Sear in hot oil until browned on all sides, about 1 minute per side.
- Place onto a large sheet of aluminum foil set on top of a baking sheet; set aside. Stir together the maple syrup, ketchup, water, and garlic. Pour 3/4 of this sauce over the pork. Fold the foil over the pork, and seal to form a packet.
- Bake in preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees F (75 degrees C), about 2 hours. Carefully open up the foil packet, and broil for a few minutes until the sauce glazes the meat. Serve with remaining sauce.

ROAST MAPLE PORK LOIN
Nothing says "holiday meal" to me like a centerpiece-worthy platter of roasted meat and vegetables. The season requires that you have options, because you might be cooking for a crowd or a dinner party. I like to make a little extra of this particular recipe, and use the leftovers for sandwiches. What could be better?

Steps:
- Season the pork loin with 1 tablespoon of salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Chop the garlic and sage together to make a coarse rub for the pork. Rub it into the pork loin. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for a few hours, preferably overnight. Remove it from the refrigerator 30 minutes before you're going to cook. (Note: Please allow 8 hours for overnight marinating.)
- Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Set a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the bacon to the pan, and fry until crisp and fully rendered. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon. Return the pan to the heat.
- Add the orange juice, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and chili powder to the sauté pan with the rendered bacon fat. Simmer the glaze until it thickens and becomes syrupy, about 2-3 minutes. Once the glaze has thickened, drizzle in a tablespoon of olive oil, for added body and glossiness. Set aside.
- Trim, clean, and halve the Brussels sprouts. Spread them out on a rimmed baking sheet. Set aside.
- Peel and cut the butternut squash into quarter-moon shapes, ¼-inch thick. Spread out on a second rimmed baking sheet. Set aside.
- Remove the plastic wrap from the rested pork loin, and discard. Brush the sage/garlic mixture off and place the loin, fat side up, on the third rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle half of the cooled glaze over the pork loin, smearing it in with your hands. Coat the vegetables in the remaining olive oil, scatter a few sprigs of thyme on the trays, and season with salt. Toss with the remaining glaze. Place the trays in the oven and set a timer for 10 minutes.
- Check the vegetables after 10 minutes; remove from the oven once they're golden brown and slightly soft in the middle. Drop the oven's temperature to 375 F and continue roasting the pork loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest end reads 140 degrees F, about 20-30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest.
- Spread the roasted vegetables on a large serving platter. Slice half of the pork loin, and arrange on top of the vegetables. Garnish with the cooked bacon and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.

PORK LOIN WITH ORANGE MARMALADE GLAZE
Not sure where this recipe came from, but I cooked it at the beach one summer with a friend and it became a tradition every time we returned (and lots of times at home, inbetween). This is a savory roast. The marmalade and white wine bring out the flavor and juiciness of the roast but don't overpower with sweetness.

Tips:
- Choosing the right pork roast is crucial for this recipe. Opt for a pork shoulder or pork butt, as they are well-marbled and yield tender, flavorful meat when slow-cooked.
- Searing the pork roast before braising adds depth of flavor and caramelizes the exterior. Make sure to sear the roast over medium-high heat to create a nice crust.
- Use a variety of citrus fruits for the braising liquid. Oranges add a sweet and tangy flavor, while lemons and limes provide a brighter, more acidic touch. Experiment with different combinations to find your favorite blend.
- Don't skimp on the aromatics. Shallots, garlic, and thyme add incredible flavor to the braising liquid. Sauté them gently in butter until softened and fragrant before adding the citrus juices.
- Slow-cooking is key to tender, fall-off-the-bone pork. Braise the roast in the citrus-maple mixture for at least 3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). Cover the pot to prevent the liquid from evaporating too quickly.
- Remove the pork roast from the braising liquid and let it rest for 15-20 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more succulent and flavorful dish.
- Serve the pork roast with the braising liquid spooned over the top. Accompany it with roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or rice for a complete meal.
Conclusion:
Orange maple pork roast is a delectable and versatile dish that's perfect for special occasions or casual weeknight dinners. The combination of citrus, maple syrup, and aromatic spices creates a tantalizing flavor profile that's sure to impress your taste buds.
