Greek Pork Loin image

I printed this years ago from about.com who listed it from the National Pork Producers Council. This is a great recipe and when my grill was out of commission, I tried in my crock pot as well. I am glad I fought the temptation to increase the lemon and garlic, because the amounts listed are just right.

Categories     Pork

Time 1h35m

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 7

3 lbs boneless pork loin roast (single loin)
1/4 cup olive oil (use a good one)
1/4 cup lemon juice (fresh squeezed, about 2 avg lemons)
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 teaspoon black pepper
6 garlic cloves (minced or crushed, use fresh)

Steps:

  • Place pork loin in a large zip-loc bag.
  • (If I will be pressed for cooking time or my roast is very thick, I will butterfly it at this point.) Combine remaining ingredients and pour over pork in bag.
  • Seal and refrigerate overnight.
  • Remove pork and discard the marinade.
  • Grill over indirect heat on a covered grill until meat thermometer registers 155°F, about 1 to 1/2 hours.
  • Let rest 10 minutes before slicing thinly to serve OR proceed as above except place roast in crock pot with 1/4 cup good chardonnay and 2 Tablespoons water.
  • Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours.

5 stars! The pork loin was moist and tender, and the sauce was tangy and flavorful. I served it with rice and steamed broccoli, and it was a hit with my family. Highly recommend!
