Slow Roasted Pork Loin Apple Stuffed — Here is a simple, delicious recipe that you can quickly prepare and forget about as it cooks.
Take a pound and a half of pork loin — tip: buy a pork loin on sale, cut it in thirds and freeze them — butterfly it and heavily salt and pepper the inside. Peel and dice one apple — we recommend Granny Smith — and do the same to an onion. Spread the apple and onion pieces on the loin. Roll it up and tie it.
Spread the outside with a nice rub, such as Memphis Dust Rub.
Put it on a rack and roast it in an oven at 220 degrees for six or seven hours. Internal temperature should be 160 F.
For a side chop some root veggies — we used onion, potatoes and carrots drenched in olive oil and seasoned with salt, pepper and garlic — and put it beneath the loin to catch any drippings as it cooks. Do the same for any left over stuffing.
Red cabbage and Spätzle would go well with this, too. And a good double-bock.
Excellent suggestions.
Looks great!
