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.

DAD'S BASIC MOIST PORK ROAST
This is the best and most basic way to ensure a juicy, perfectly-cooked pork roast every time. This recipe really requires a good thermometer -- either a $10 instant-read type or, even better, the type that pierces the meat and stays in place while connected to an outside-the-oven monitor. If you can swing that, then try your favorite marinade or rub on this recipe. Use your imagination on the rubs and marinades, but ensure you bring your roast directly from the fridge to the roasting pan -- Dad's recipe works best that way.

PORK ROAST WITH CRISPY PORK CRACKLING
Recipe video above. This is how to make a pork roast with tender juicy flesh, with a crazy-crispy crackling! The crackle is bubbly and puffy from edge to edge as it should be, rather than an impenetratable rock hard flat sheet of skin or worse still, littered with rubbery patches.And the gravy is to die for, thanks to the flavour loaded roasting pan juices!KEY STEPS: Use pork shoulder, dry skin, no need to score (but if it's already scored, that's ok), salt the skin evenly, slow roast low uncovered, keep the skin surface level using foil balls, and blast it for crispy skin! Read the post for extra tips, step photos, and why this recipe works!

Steps:
- Dry skin: Pat the skin dry with paper towels. If time permits, leave in the fridge uncovered overnight (even 1 hr helps). If not, pat extra well.
- Preheat oven to 220°C/430°F (200°C fan).
- Season flesh: Sprinkle pork flesh with 1 1/2 tsp salt, all the pepper and all fennel seeds and 1 tbsp olive oil. Rub into flesh, right into all the crevices and cracks.
- Salt skin: Flip pork, drizzle skin with 1 tsp oil, then rub all over with fingers. Sprinkle all over with remaining 1 1/2 tsp salt, taking care to get even coverage. Un-salted patches will not become bubbly crackling, it will be a hard flat sheet.
- Garlic & onion bed: Place halved garlic bulbs and onion in roasting pan. Place pork skin side up on top of them.
- Wine: Carefully pour wine into the pan, being sure not to wet the skin. Transfer to oven.
- Lower oven: Immediately turn oven down to 160°C/320°F (140°C fan).
- Slow roast: Roast for 2 1/2 hours.
- Level at 1 1/2 hours: Check pork after 1 1/2 hours to see if the pork is warped and the skin's overall surface is significantly unlevelled. If so, adjust to make the skin surface as level as possible using balls of foil and moving large dislodged pork pieces to the side (key tip for crispy crackling, Note 3). Then return to oven for the remaining 1 hour.
- Check pan & salt on skin: If pan is drying out, add some water. If there are bald patches on the skin without salt (eg it fell off), spray lightly with oil spray (or brush lightly with oil) then sprinkle with salt. (Remember, salt = bubbly skin!)
- Increase heat: Turn oven up to 250°C/485°F (all oven types), or as high as it will go if your oven won't go this high.
- Make skin crisp: Return pork to oven for 30 minutes, rotating pan as needed, until skin is crisp and bubbly all over. If needed, use foil patches, secured with water soaked toothpicks, to cover parts that are done and keep crisping up remaining patches.
- Rest: Transfer pork to serving platter, tent loosely with foil (don't worry, crackling stays super-crisp) and rest for 20 minutes (stays warm up to 1 hour). Then slice using a serrated knife.
- Serve with gravy. Don't pour gravy over crackling - pour it off to the side! See note for reheating.

Steps:
- Make some deep incisions in the pork, close to the bone. Mix together the garlic, chopped rosemary and 1 teaspoon salt. Rub into the cuts, spreading any extra over the meat. Set aside for 20 minutes. Meanwhile, preheat the oven to 220C/gas 7/fan 200C.
- Scatter the onion and a few sprigs of rosemary into a roasting tin. Put the pork on top, skinned side up, cover tightly with foil and roast with the rind for 30 minutes.
- Turn down the heat to 190C/gas 5/fan 170C and cook the rind for a further 30 minutes and the roast for a further hour.
- Remove the foil and roast uncovered for 20 minutes.
- Meanwhile, prepare the apples. In a pan melt the butter and cook the onion gently until soft but not browned, about 10 minutes. Off the heat, add the lemon zest, breadcrumbs and rosemary. Season well. Core the apples. Cut a line through the skin all round the waist of each. Fill each apple with onion stuffing. Mix the vinegar and redcurrant jelly for the glaze.
- Remove the pork from the oven. Turn the heat to 200C/gas 6/fan 180C. Stand the apples around the pork, brush the pork with a little glaze and drizzle a little over the apples. Return to the oven and roast with the rind also in the oven, uncovered, for a further 20-25 minutes. Baste the pork twice with the juices and brush once with any remaining glaze. Test the pork by piercing in the centre with a skewer. The juices should run clear, not pink. If in doubt, remove the apples, keep warm, cover the pork with foil and cook for 10-15 minutes more.
- Put the pork and apples on a warmed plate, cover with foil and leave in a warm place for 15 minutes. Spoon off the excess fat from the tin and put the tin on the stove over a medium-high heat. Pour in the stock. Boil vigorously for 5-6 minutes. Taste and season, adding a little jelly and/or cider vinegar to taste. Strain into a gravy boat. Serve the pork and apples with the crackling, garnished with rosemary.

Steps:
- If you have time, rub salt in the pork skin 2 hours before cooking and leave it uncovered in the fridge. Heat the oven to 230C/210C fan/gas 8. Turn the pork rind-side down and with a small knife make about 6 deep incisions along the meat. Poke a sliver of garlic, a piece of rosemary and bay in each incision and turn the pork the right way up. If you didn't salt the pork earlier salt the skin now.
- Mix the carrot, onion and apple and scatter along the middle of a shallow roasting tray to make a bed for the pork to sit on. Sit the pork on the vegetables and rub the skin with the oil. Place the pork in the oven and leave for 15 mins then turn the heat down to 180C/160C fan/gas 4 and continue to roast for 1hr 30 mins. If after this time you don't have brilliant crackling turn the heat up again and check every 5 mins until the skin has crackled.
- Remove the pork from the roasting tray to a board to rest and pour off all but about 2 tbsp of fat from the tray. If your tray is robust enough to go on the heat then do so, if not scrape the contents into a shallow saucepan and place on the heat. Stir the flour in with the veg and cook until you have a mushy, dark amber paste then splash in the cider and bubble down to a thick paste again. Pour in the stock and simmer everything for 8-10 mins until you have thickened gravy. Strain the sauce into another saucepan pushing as much puréed apple as you can through the sieve. Simmer again and season to taste.
- Carve the pork loin with crackling attached into slices using a serrated knife and serve with your favourite vegetables and the apple and cider gravy.

Apple orchard pork roast is a perfect dish for chilly autumn nights. It combines the sweetness of apple with the savory flavor of pork to give a delightful taste that will leave your taste buds craving for more. Here are some valuable tips on how to make a perfect apple orchard pork roast recipe.
1. Choose the Right Cut of Pork
When making apple orchard pork roast, it's essential to choose the right cut of pork. Pork loin roast or pork tenderloin are both great choices for this recipe. They're both lean cuts of pork with little to no fat, which makes them easy to cook and absorb the flavors of the marinade easily.
2. Marinating the Pork
Marinating the pork is essential when making an apple orchard pork roast. It infuses flavor into the meat, tenderizing it, and giving it that distinctive taste. The best marinade for apple orchard pork roast is an apple cider marinade. You can make this marinade by mixing apple cider, brown sugar, garlic, rosemary, salt, and pepper in a bowl.
3. Preparing the Apples
The apples are the star of this dish, and it's crucial to prepare them correctly. Choose sweet apples such as Honeycrisp or Fuji for the best results. Core and slice the apples into wedges or cubes, depending on how you want them in the dish. The apple cubes should be big enough to give texture to the dish without overpowering the pork.
4. The Right Temperature and Time
The right temperature and time are essential for a perfect apple orchard pork roast recipe. Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C) and place the marinated pork in the oven for 25-30 minutes. After that, add the apples to the dish, drizzle some additional marinade over them, and return it to the oven. Cook for another 15-20 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
5. Resting the Pork
After taking the apple orchard pork roast out of the oven, allow it to rest for at least ten minutes before slicing. This will enable the juices to settle and redistribute evenly in the meat, giving a tender and juicy pork roast.
6. Serving Suggestions
There are several ways of serving apple orchard pork roast. You can serve it with mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a green salad. Apples also pair well with walnuts and blue cheese, making it an excellent addition to the dish.
7. Storing and Reheating
If you have leftover apple orchard pork roast, store it in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to three days. To reheat, place it in an oven preheated to 350°F (175°C) for about 15 minutes or until heated through.
8. Experiment with Spices and Herbs
Don't be afraid to experiment with different spices and herbs when making apple orchard pork roast. Rosemary and thyme are great choices, and you can also add a touch of nutmeg for more depth of flavor.
9. Vary the Apples
While we recommended honeycrisp or fuji apples, you can also try using other apples for a different flavor. Granny smith apples, for instance, add a tart and tangy flavor to the dish, making it perfect for people who love the sour taste.
10. Use High-Quality Ingredients
Lastly, when making apple orchard pork roast, always use high-quality ingredients. High-quality apples and pork will give a mouthwatering, delicious taste to your dish.
Conclusion
Apple orchard pork roast is an easy-to-make and delicious dish that's perfect for the autumn season. Season the pork with an apple cider marinade, add sweet apples, and cook in the oven to perfection. By following these valuable tips, you'll create a delightful apple orchard pork roast that will leave your taste buds craving for more.
