Today is the Jounge's chance to pork loin!
Apr 23, 2021, 9:21 AM
|
|
TRDJ scored a pork loin from a freshly butchered piggy. Pork loin is roundish in shape, about the size of a volleyball or maybe a touch smaller. Weight is prolly in the 3-5 lb range, and she has a distinguished fedora of fat on her.
I'm in need of a solid method for cooking it. Whole? Slice her up? Bake? Smoke? Pan fry? Put it in the crock pot with A-1 for several days? Wrap in foil and microwave? Freeze real good and fry in peanut oil?
The best recipe submission will win the following: *A 15 minute phone call with FastChad *A beer on the porch with that tugalooo guy (speaking of pork, lol) but I'm not ATing him in effort to keep him shoo'd off back to the mange *A hearty thumbs up from TRDJ *A signed TRDJ signature sombrero *A youtube link to the Vicente Fernandez greatest hits album

you're thinking of pork tenderloin, which is different, and, um, more tender.

I don't know what TRDJ is talking about. Here's a pork loin next to a pork tenderloin.

It's like the one in your pig but a lopped of section. Maybe like a third or quarter of that.

I'm so ashamed. I'm much more tenderloin sized. But I work it good.

round? you sure you got a loin hombre?

loins are usually long and girthy
I usually inject with Creole butter, rub with salt pepper and smoked paprika get the old CookShack up to 500 deg F and pop that pad boy in there. After 10-15 minutes I drop the temp to 225 deg F and let it waller in good ol pecan smoke until internal temp 140. Wrap and rest at least 20 minutes, slice and enjoy.

I mean, the label on the bag SAYS pork loin.

I don't think it's the whole thang. Looks like a sliced cross section.
My smoker won't even 280, so maybe oven at high temp for sear then smoke?
No concerns about too dry after smoking?

The injection helps
when I pull at 140 it doesn't dry out.
for a small one you might need to tent it or something so the smoke gets in underneath and the moisture is held on top.

That' s lot of meat (TWSS). Hears how I usually cook mine

Get out that iron skillit boy. Rub olive oil all in it and place loin in with the side up you want to be on top. Pan sear that thing for about 3-5 minutes on each side depending on how big the meat is. After it's seared, pop it into the oven you already forgot to turn on while it was searing. I'd say about 375 to 400. Usually bakes for about 25-30 minutes, but keep checking the temp. Internal temp of 145 probably. Times may vary as I've never cooked juan that big.
If you want, you can put some vegetables in there at the bottom before you pop it into the oven.
For flavoring, well, that's different for every person. I'm simple and usually use rosemary & italian seasoning or lemon pepper or some assortment of spices like that cause I'm a simpleton. Sometimes you can breakout da sawces if you want.
All this to say, I now prefer the turkey tenderloin over the pork as it seems to come out more tenda and I like the flavoring better.
If none of that works, just remember, Facebookcoach's wife had to eat his ### so consider that no matter what comes out the oven, it can always be worse.

I've done this once and it was the bomb dot com (granted, I did it b/c it was raining and cold so I didn't want to smoke it outside): - put pork loin in crock pot for few hours...slow and low, all day w/ some messican type seasoning and juices (my gringo ### uses rotel hot) - shred pork loin when she nice and tender - placed shredded pork loin on a big ole baking sheet, and broil it for bout tree minutes - toast your corn taco shells, wrap in tin foil - have a nice pico and cabbbage whatever to go into tacos - boom - shredded pork street tacos
OR
wrap that ##### in bacon and smoke it (normally what I do, +/- bacon)
after it hits 165, wrap in tin foil for a bit to rest and get some juices. slice er up into medallions, and pour the juice from the foil over said medallions. serve up w/ some butter peas and mashed taters.

What you have my amigo is a lion roast. Usually when i get a whole pork loin i will slice off 6-8 good size chops to vac-seal and freeze and what's left from the center is the loin roast. Here is how you prepare it:
Put bacon/garlic/fresh herbs and a little olive oil in a food processor until its kind of a bacon meat paste. You will be tempted to eat this with a spoon based solely on the smell. DO NOT EAT IT.
Slice the lion into a roulade. You slice along the bottom flat-ways maybe one inch thick but do not cut all the way through, then flop the big part off of the flat part you just cut, continue until you have the whole thing laid out in a roughly one inch thick sheet of pork muscle.
Now take your bacon paste and shmear it all over that bad #####. Then roll it back up with the bacon goodness trapped inside of your roulade. Tie with butcher twine.
I usually smoke it to about 10 degrees below desired temp (you could do this in the oven if you want but it won't be as good), sear it on all sides in a ripping hot cast iron pan and then rest it for about minutes.
Slice and serve. You can make an optional pan sauce in the cast iron after you sear and while it rests. Just saute some onion/shallot/garlic/herbs and deglaze with white wine, add chicken stock and reduce. Mount with butter. How much butter you say? Put in however much you think and then double that.
Enjoy.

Bacon is raw. This is what keeps the very lean cut moist by basically basting it from the inside out in bacon grease as it cooks.
When it's rolled back up it should look similar to what you started with but will be kind of pinwheeled on the ends (and when you slice it) with the bacon/herbs spiraling out from the center. See attached
