Before I met Curt I had never cooked a pork loin. That soon changed and now I think I have it down solid. So much so that Curt made my sister had to follow my recipe or not be allowed to roast the loins for our wedding celebration. She did a great job :o) ! This is so easy, you just can't mess it up!

- Keep an eye on water level and don't let it run dry.
- Loin should be done between Three and Four Hours depending on size of Loin.
- Juices running clear and a spot check for pinkness should let you know if its ready or not.
- During the last twenty mins you should uncover loin, flip fat side up and let loin cook rest of the way uncovered.
- For Crisper Fat Trimmings slide under broiler for a minute or two.
- You can really let this loin cook by its self for at least the first two hours then checking every so often for water level.

- Wash it down with Mulled Wine or Cider and you've got yourself a Medieval Feast!
