Apple Juice Pork Loin Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Season the pork loins with seasoning salt, and place them in a 9x13 inch baking dish or small roasting pan. Pour apple juice over the pork, and cover the dish with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake for 1 hour in the preheated oven. While the pork is roasting, mix together the apple butter, brown sugar, water, cinnamon, and cloves. Remove pork roasts from the oven, and spread with apple butter mixture.
• Cover, and return to the oven for 2 hours, or until fork-tender.

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 350 degrees F. Take the pork out of the refrigerator 45 minutes before you are ready to roast to allow the pork to come to temperature.
• Place the pork into a roasting pan fitted with a rack or onto a baking sheet, fat side up, and season with salt and pepper. Put in the oven and roast for 1 hour. Meanwhile, make the glaze.
• In a saucepan over medium-high heat, bring the apple juice to a boil and reduce it by half, about 10 minutes. Whisk in the brown sugar, soy sauce, Worcestershire sauce, and mustard and simmer until thickened, another 5 to 7 minutes.
• After the pork has roasted for 1 hour, start brushing it with the glaze every 15 minutes. Cook until the roast reaches an internal temperature of 150 degrees F, about 2 hours total cook time. Remove from the oven, give it another coating of glaze, and let it rest, uncovered, for 15 minutes before carving. (Reserve 1 cup of the meat for the Round 2 Recipe Pork Hash).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large ovenproof skillet heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Season the pork loin all over generously with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until golden brown on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to a plate and set it aside.
• Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, herb sprigs, and 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Stir until the vegetables are browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the sliced apples, then push the mixture to the sides and set the pork loin in the middle of the skillet along with any collected juices on the plate. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 140 to 150 degrees F, about 30 to 35 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
• Transfer the pork a cutting board and cover it loosely with foil while you make the sauce. Arrange the apples and vegetables on a serving platter and set aside. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Return the skillet to a high heat and add the vinegar scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen up any browned bits. Reduce by half then add the cider and reduce by about half again. Pull the skillet from the heat and whisk in the mustard, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of cold butter. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Remove the strings from the roast and slice into 1/2-inch thick pieces and arrange over the apple mixture. Drizzle some sauce over meat and serve the rest on the side.
• Cook's Note: Pork cooked this way will be slightly pink. If desired, cook the pork to 160 degrees F, but be aware that this lean cut will not be as moist at the higher temperature.

Steps:

• Preheat an oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C). Grease a baking dish large enough to hold the tenderloin without folding it.
• Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat, and brown the pork tenderloin on all sides. Remove the browned tenderloin to the prepared baking dish. Sprinkle all sides of the meat with salt, pepper, and parsley.
• Cook and stir the onion and apple in the same skillet over medium heat until the onion becomes soft, about 5 minutes, and pour in the Riesling wine. Scrape all the browned flavor bits off the bottom of the skillet and stir to help dissolve them into the wine. Bring to a boil, and pour the onion, apple, and wine mixture over the tenderloin.
• Mix together the apple jelly and balsamic vinegar in a bowl until the mixture is smooth and without lumps. Spread the jelly mixture all over the pork.
• Bake loin in the preheated oven until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center reads 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), 30 to 45 minutes. Allow the tenderloin to rest for 10 minutes before slicing, and serve each slice with a spoonful of the apple-onion mixture.

Steps:

• 1. Heat oven to 350 degrees.
• 2. On top of the stove with medium temperature, add oil to a dutch oven (with a lid) and add the diced onions and peppers. Sauté the vegetables for about 5 minutes until soft.
• 3. Rub the pork roast liberally with a pork seasoning mixture. (Or make a rub by mixing as desired: 1-2 Tbsps. brown sugar, and 1 tsp. salt, and 1/2 tsp. each paprika, cumin, onion powder, garlic powder, and 1/4 tsp. pepper, and a pinch of cayenne pepper.)
• 4. Set the roast with the rub on the sautéd onions and peppers. Add the apple juice.
• 5. Cover the dutch oven with the lid and put into the oven. Set the timer for 1 hour.
• 6. After an hour, check the liquid level. Add water if necessary to maintain the original liquid level. Turn the oven down to 275 degrees. Set the timer for one hour.
• 7. After the second hour, check the liquid level again and add water if necessary to maintain the original liquid level. Maintaining 275 degrees, roast for 1 more hour.
• 8. After the roast has been in the oven for 3 hours, remove the pot from the oven and allow to set for 15 - 30 minutes.
• 9. The roast is now ready to pull or slice: Remove any fat that is visible. Pull or slice and add meat to the cooking liquid for serving. (Or put roast and cooking liquid in a plastic container and refrigerate the roast whole in the cooking liquid and slice when cold. Discard any congealed fat.)
• 10. Note: I usually freeze serving sizes of sliced meat and cooking liquid. In the cooking liquid, this meat freezes and warms well!!
• 11. Serve warmed pork with teriyaki or barbecue sauce as desired.
