Rosemary Balsamic Pork Loin
3-4 lb. whole pork loin
Your Favorite Seasoning Blend
Basting Sauce:
1 tbsp. chopped garlic
1 tbsp. chopped fresh rosemary
1 tbsp. balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp. honey
1 tbsp. soy sauce
1/8 tsp. course black salt
1/8 tsp. kosher salt
Mix together all of the basting sauce ingredients in a small bowl. Refrigerate until needed. Meanwhile, sprinkle your favorite seasoning blend over the pork loin. Grill on medium heat (about 375 degrees) for approximately one hour. At the one hour point, baste the loin using the sauce. Continue to cook until done. This will depend on the size of the loin.
In the beginning, there was garlic.
Then Garlic met Rosemary, a local girl with long legs and a woodsy smell...
And, they formed a strong bond of flavor. Actually, rosemary is a strong herb. I like it on pork, chicken, and potatoes.
Equal parts of balsamic vinegar, honey, and soy sauce. Add the pepper and salt. Refrigerate until needed.
This is a 3-1/2 pound pork loin.
I seasoned it well on both sides with my favorite seasoning blend: seasoning salt, garlic salt, and pepper.
Let the meat rest so the juices can redistribute. I've always wanted to say that. Thanks Food Network!
I served the pork loin with the same sides that Eric did so many years ago: canned corn and a pasta salad. Don't mess with tradition!
Enjoy!!
This sounds awesome, Kim. I'm totally stealing.
ReplyDeleteI don't want to sound dumb but don't know much about pork cuts- is a pork loin the same as a pork tenderloin? We've grilled the tenderloin before and it was delish- I want to try this recipe too!
ReplyDeleteHi What A Dish! Tenderloins can be used, too. They're smaller and more tender than a pork loin. Usually they come two to a package. The pork loin is a bigger cut of meat which is used to cut boneless pork chops. Either cut can be used with this recipe. Just adjust cooking time since the tenderloin is smaller.
ReplyDeletethis looks seriously great! thanks for sharing, lots of love happening for this and all your posts :)
