ROAST PORK WITH CHIPOTLE-GLAZED APPLES
I did my best to pattern this recipe after a delicious dish that I had at a hotel in Puerto Vallarta, Mexico. The chef was very secretive but the waiter was more than willing to whisper a lot of tips in my ear! (It was he that got the big tip!) I always brine pork (all cuts) before I prepare it but that is a personal choice. If you want to brine, there is a good basic brine recipe on this site. If you brine, start this recipe 2 days before serving. The process to brine and marinade only takes a few minutes each, so this is not as time consumming as it may seem. Remember to rinse the pork well after taking it out of the brine.
