Here's my Pork Loin recipe, from the Old Forum.

For me, the problem with pork loin is that it's just that bland pork flavor that you need to do something to enhance it somewhat.

My two keys:



  • Don't overcook
  • Marinade & Baste




1. I try to cook my meats to a particular internal temp. For pork loin, I look for 145 internal. I recommend you cook to something around that temp and decide if that's good for you. It of course will vary, based on your preferences as well as the size of your pork loin. Years ago, pork HAD to be cooked to at least 160, but with the more modern techniques, they say we don't have to worry about the tricanosis like we used to. You could even cook it to 155 or so, but that would tend to be dry.

2. Now, for the marinade. I've like this oriental style because it is a strong flavor to enhance the weak pork flavor.



  • 1 cup soy sauce
  • 1/3 cup sesame oil (yes, this has to be sesame)
  • 6 cloves of garlic, chopped fine (to your taste, more is even better)
    {*]1 tablespoon ginger (ground)



That's it.

Mix the marinade, place in a non-reactive pan and let marinade overnight. I heat the leftover marinade up (to kill off bacteria) and serve with the food as a sauce.

Options: I sometimes add apple juice to get more sauce.

You can smoke it, I only smoke it for about an hour, then finish it on the grill so I get a good crispy outside. Go for that internal 145. I like to smoke this over fruit wood of some sort.

Hope that helps. Comments are mandatory whenever I post a recipe.

Good q'in on 'ya

Smokin
Smokin',I've used your recipe and then injected.I cut your marinade 50/50 with apple juice and inject 1 to 1.5 oz. per lb. all over the loin and let it set overnight.I don't know if it is better,but it seems to give a little more moisture at carving.I also only bring it to 140� internal and hard sear it on the grill.This raises the internal a few degrees and foiling it while resting seems to raise the internal a little.

Good Q 2 Ya,Tom.
