Categories     main-dish

Time 1h45m

Yield 12 servings

Number Of Ingredients 3

2 tablespoons Jamaican jerk seasoning in a jar (pick a brand with low carbs and sugars)
1/4 cup canola oil
4 pounds boneless pork loin

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees F.
  • Mix jerk seasoning with the oil in a small bowl (this will thin it and cut the heat). Trim any excess fat from the pork loin, leaving a thin-layered wide strip down the center of the top. Evenly rub the entire pork loin with the jerk seasoning mixture. Place pork loin in a shallow greased roasting pan, and bake for 20 minutes. Then reduce the temperature to 300 degrees F and continue baking for about 1 more hour, or until a meat thermometer stuck in the thickest part reads 145 degrees F. Remove from oven and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.

JAMAICAN JERK PORK LOIN

This is a compilation of several recipes for "Jerk Pork" that I've tried. I don't claim that it has any Jamaican authenticity at all, but we really like it. It's important to find a pork loin (not the tenderloin) that has a nice fat layer on top... it really keeps the moisture in and makes for a very nice presentation when it's browned and crisp. I made this for my mother's friend birthday party, for a crew of very discriminating palates and they went nuts. Prior to that, I didn't have a written recipe for this, but I had demands for the recipe so I had to measure as I re-created it! I hope you enjoy.
