Bacon Wrapped Pork Loin
From larryvaughn 15 years agoIngredients
- 2 thick cut pork loins, trimmed shopping list
- 8 slices thick sliced bacon shopping list
- 1 cup cooked stuffing (left over is great) shopping list
- 2 tbsp garlic oil shopping list
- 1/3 cup cracked black pepper shopping list
- Cook’s twine shopping list
- No-stick spray shopping list
How to make it
- Lightly grease a half sheet pan with no-stick spray and set aside
- Place each pork loin in a gallon size plastic bag, and pound out until very thin
- Place parchment paper or plastic wrap on your clean work surface
- Lay a slice of the bacon parallel to the bottom of the parchment paper
- Lay the remaining slices of bacon edge to edge to create a square
- Position one loin on top of the bacon strips
- Arrange ½ cup stuffing along the entire edge of the loin closest to you
- Using the parchment paper to lift the edge near you, roll the bacon, loin and stuffing into a tight log, keeping the bacon nicely arranged around the outside of the loin roll
- Tie the roll in several places with cook’s twine to hold the bacon and stuffing in place. Be sure to tie both ends in such a way that the stuffing will be held inside the roll as the pork shrinks during cooking
- Place the loin roll in the greased pan. Coat with garlic oil and black pepper.
- Repeat this process with the remaining ingredients, and place in the pan
- Bake in a 300 degree oven for 60 minutes, or until the loin reaches 160°.
- Prepare a hot skillet a few minutes before removing the loin rolls from the oven. Sear the bacon on the bottom and both sides until nicely browned, about 2 minutes per side. Cover with foil and let rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
- Cook’s note: Capture the frond and bacon drippings for a wonderful sauce, served on the side for dipping, or as a gravy. Your favorite BBQ sauce or other flavoring are always options with this dish. Yummy!
