How do I cook a pork loin to get it to come out looking just like this...

I don't have a grill to throw it on.. so I am at a loss.

Looks like that was oven roasted.

so I am finding many conflicting recipes... oven roasted at 350 degress for 2-2.5 hours seems to be the consensus

Likely broiled:

Season roast to taste, place on broiler pan with two cups of salted water inside bottom of pan. Cover entire pan with foil creating a type of tent over roast and pre-heat oven to 300.

Cook at 300 for approximately 1.5 - 2 hours (depending on weight of roast) ensuring internal temp. of roast reaches 170. (Trichinosis)

During cooking, approximately every 15 minutes rotate roast and baste with a mixture of melted margarine, minced onion garlic and 4 tbsp. of white wine.

2-3 hrs depending on size of loin, slow cook.....

That picture looks like a tenderloin to me. That would be prepared much differently than a loin.

The cooking time depends on the thickness of the roast. If it is a pork loin roast.
You need to get an instant read thermometer.

1) Pat the roast dry and season the roast with salt and pepper.
2) Sear the roast in a saute pan (this is very important) brown evenly
3) Combine Dijon Mustard, Thyme leaves, Rosemary, Garlic and some Whole Butter to form paste
4) Rub down the pork loin and place on a bed of apple and onions
5) Roast at 375-400 degrees for 1 hour or until an internal temperature of 145 degrees (I know everyone says 160 but it will contionue to cook for 10 more degrees)
6) allow to rest out of the pan for 20 minutes
7) add 1 quart of water to roasting pan and bring to a boil to deglaze
8) add a slurry of either 2 tablespoons corn starch to 1/2 cup of water or
2 ounces butter mixed with 2 ounces flour
9) strain and you have a nice sauce (before you serve the sauce add 1 Tablespoon of butter and whisk thoroughly

That should do it

I'd cut slits in it, stuff it w/ garlic cloves, as garlic, loses it's pungency as it cooks. I'd absolutely brown it in hot peanut or vegetable oil before going in to the oven.

yes, you're just looking for a nice brown all the way around. Judge it by color. It'll actually jump start the baking/roasting process. The baking/roasting is where you actually worry about doneness etc, etc...

Stewie · 11-20-2008, 05:38 PM

Austin, do you have a tenderloin, or a loin?

11-20-2008, 05:50 PM

It's really hard to screw this up. Don't be nervous about it. You can cook it half a dozen ways and achieve similar results.
