Rodgers Estate Marinated Pork Loin Recipe


Rodgers Estate Marinated Pork Loin Recipe
This is a recipe I obtained from an estate sale. I obtained it when I purchased the family collection from the Rodgers Estate in Bonham, Texas in 1992.

We love pork loin! Will give this one a try. Do you grill it over a flame or do you use indirect heat?


I use indirect heat. Thanks and glad you like it. Please let me know how it turns out.


This sounds terrific, will save for when it's not so icy in front of my grill!


I'VE NEVER USED JUNIPER BERRIES; WHAT FLAVOR DO THEY ADD?


For juniper berry flavor imagine the smell of gin only more so!


Great recipe. Thanks!
