Steps:
- Preheat oven to 400°. Line a 13"-x-9" pan with foil and place a wire rack on top.
- Roll the flap of the boneless loin into a cylinder and using kitchen twine, tie the pork loin every few inches. (This helps cook the pork more evenly.)
- In a small bowl, mix together garlic, mustard, rosemary, thyme, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt, and freshly ground black pepper. Rub mixture all over pork loin and place in roasting pan fat-side down. Bake for 30 minutes, then carefully flip the loin and bake until a thermometer inserted into the middle of the meat reads 145°, about 20 minutes.
- Mix melted butter and brown sugar together, then brush on top of the pork loin. Broil for 2 minutes to let caramelize.
- Let rest for 10 minutes before slicing into 1/3" pieces. Serve pork warm with extra pan juices.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- In a large ovenproof skillet heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Season the pork loin all over generously with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until golden brown on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to a plate and set it aside.
- Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, herb sprigs, and 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Stir until the vegetables are browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the sliced apples, then push the mixture to the sides and set the pork loin in the middle of the skillet along with any collected juices on the plate. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 140 to 150 degrees F, about 30 to 35 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
- Transfer the pork a cutting board and cover it loosely with foil while you make the sauce. Arrange the apples and vegetables on a serving platter and set aside. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Return the skillet to a high heat and add the vinegar scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen up any browned bits. Reduce by half then add the cider and reduce by about half again. Pull the skillet from the heat and whisk in the mustard, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of cold butter. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Remove the strings from the roast and slice into 1/2-inch thick pieces and arrange over the apple mixture. Drizzle some sauce over meat and serve the rest on the side.
- Cook's Note: Pork cooked this way will be slightly pink. If desired, cook the pork to 160 degrees F, but be aware that this lean cut will not be as moist at the higher temperature.

Yield 6 to 8 portions
Number Of Ingredients 18
Steps:
- Preheat oven to 425 degrees.
- In a saucepan over medium heat combine the pureed ancho chili, ketchup, honey, vinegar, Worcestershire, black pepper, ground cumin and garlic. Bring the ingredients to a simmer and allow to cook for 20 minutes before removing from the heat. Add the bourbon to the finished glaze and allow to cool.
- Season the roast with salt and pepper, put the roast into a roasting pan and brush with the ancho marinade. Place the roasting pan into the oven and cook for 20 minutes before turning the heat down to 350 degrees. Brush the roast at frequent intervals during the cooking process to keep the roast moist as well as perfumed with the spice mixture. Add the roughly cut vegetables, and continue to cook until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 150 degrees, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove the roast from the pan and allow to stand for 20 minutes before carving.
- While the roast is resting make a pan gravy. Pour off all of the rendered pork fat reserving 3 tablespoons, leave the rough cut vegetables in the pan, and place the roasting pan on the stove top. Turn the burner on underneath the roasting pan and keep the vegetables hot. Carefully
- deglaze the pan by adding the wine and allowing most of the liquid to cook off before adding the hot chicken broth. Reduce the heat to a simmer. Meanwhile in a small saucepan combine the 3 tablespoons of pork fat with the flour and cook gently to make a light brown roux , cooking about 3 to 4 minutes. Using a wire whisk add the roux to the simmering stock and whip the ingredient together to avoid lumping. Add any remaining marinade to the gravy and cook for 5 minutes before straining through a fine mesh strainer. Serve the roast, by carving at the table, with ancho gravy on the side.

Steps:
- Place rack in center of oven. Heat oven to 500 degrees. With the point of a paring knife, make 1/2-inch slits toward the center all around the roast. Insert the garlic in the slits, accompanied by a needle of rosemary, if using. Rub roast generously with salt and pepper. Place roast and bones, if available, in a roasting pan just large enough to hold them. Roast for 45 to 50 minutes, or until meat reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees. The meat might still be slightly pink, but this is fine. Don't overcook the roast, or it will be dry and unappealing. Remove roast and bones to a platter. Let meat rest before slicing across. Snip off strings. Juices will collect better in a platter than on a cutting board.

DAD'S BASIC MOIST PORK ROAST
This is the best and most basic way to ensure a juicy, perfectly-cooked pork roast every time. This recipe really requires a good thermometer -- either a $10 instant-read type or, even better, the type that pierces the meat and stays in place while connected to an outside-the-oven monitor. If you can swing that, then try your favorite marinade or rub on this recipe. Use your imagination on the rubs and marinades, but ensure you bring your roast directly from the fridge to the roasting pan -- Dad's recipe works best that way.

TENDER ROAST LOIN OF PORK
Last Sunday I had guests coming for an early dinner. I had to be gone for a few hours, so I popped this in the oven before I left. It was SO tender and juicy!! I'll make it like this all the time now. I think it would work well in a crockpot too, if you cut the roast in large pieces before browning.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees. Season pork loin with salt and pepper. Tuck sage leaves under kitchen twine along the length of the pork loin.
- Heat olive oil in a large cast-iron skillet over medium-high heat until hot but not smoking. Add pork, and sear until golden brown on all sides, including ends, 10 to 15 minutes. Wrap pork loin in parchment paper, tucking ends under to seal completely. Place in skillet, and transfer to oven. Roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center registers 150 degrees. 40 to 50 minutes. Remove pork loin from parchment paper, and transfer to a serving platter. Let rest for 10 minutes before removing twine and slicing into 1/2-inch-thick slices.
- Place skillet over medium heat, and add cider and stock. Cook, stirring with a wooden spoon to loosen any browned bits on the bottom of the pan. Add any accumulated juices from bottom of serving platter. Continue to cook until liquid is syrupy and reduced to about 1/3 cup. Add butter, stirring until melted. Drizzle over pork, garnish with sage leaves, and serve.
Tips:
- Choose a good quality cut of pork loin. Look for pork that is firm to the touch and has a good amount of marbling.
- Season the pork loin well. Use a combination of salt, pepper, garlic, and herbs to give the pork flavor.
- Cook the pork loin to the proper internal temperature. The internal temperature of the pork should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 150 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, and 160 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done.
- Let the pork loin rest before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and juicy.
- Serve the pork loin with your favorite sides. Roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, and gravy are all classic options.
Conclusion:
Roast loin of pork is a delicious and versatile dish that can be enjoyed by people of all ages. It is a great option for a special occasion meal or a simple weeknight dinner. With a little planning and preparation, you can easily make a roast loin of pork that will impress your family and friends.
