Categories     Pork

Time 1h5m

Yield 4 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 1/2 lbs boneless pork loin
salt
black pepper
1/4 lb hickory smoked bacon
5 sprigs fresh rosemary
1/3 cup extra virgin olive oil
5 garlic cloves, crushed
2 lbs boiling potatoes, cut in chunks

Steps:

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Season the pork with salt and pepper. Wrap the bacon around the pork and tie with string. Tuck the rosemary here and there under the string.
  • Heat the oil in a large, heavy casserole dish over medium heat. Add the roast and brown it lightly on all sides, about 4 minutes. (Keep turning the meat so the rosemary won't burn.) When the roast has a golden color, turn the heat off and add the potatoes and garlic. Mix the potatoes, garlic, and oil well. Season the potatoes with salt and pepper.
  • Put the casserole dish in the oven and bake for 45 minutes. Baste the roast with pan juices while cooking. Check the roast for doneness by piercing with a knife. The roast is done when the juices that come out are clear and NOT pink.
  • Take the roast out of the oven, remove the string, slice the meat, and serve with potatoes and some pan juice. (I like mine with a salad and baked sweet potatoes.).
