Steps:
- Cover the pork with brine in a large container and let it marinate in the fridge for 45 minutes (optional). Pat dry with paper towel. Place the garlic, fennel seeds, herbs, salt and pepper on a cutting board and mix it all together. With a large chef's knife, roughly cop everything together. Pour the olive oil directly on the cutting board over the herb mixture and use the end of your knife to smear it together and form a paste. Preheat the oven to 400 degrees and rub the pork with the spice mixture on all sides. Roast in the oven in a roasting rack in the middle of the oven for about 45 minutes until internal temp reads 125 degrees. Remove from the oven and allow to rest for 15 minutes before slicing. CHERRY-WHISKEY SAUCE DIRECTIONS In a small pot, combine cherries, salt, chipotle powder, vinegar, maple, mustard, water and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Continue to simmer for 3 minutes; then remove from heat. Add whiskey. Can be made a day ahead and refrigerated until ready to use. WILD RICE PILAF DIRECTIONS Combine the wild rice, 1½ cups of the broth, red onion, and bay leaf in a large pot, and bring to a simmer over medium-high heat. Cover the pot and turn the heat to low. Cook the rice-broth mix for about 20 minutes, until the rice soaks up all the liquid, Pull the pot off the heat and let it sit, tightly covered, for 5 minutes. While the rice is cooking, combine the quinoa with the remaining 1½ cups broth in a small pot, and cook it in the same way you cooked the rice: Bring it to a boil, cover, reduce the heat to low, and let it sit. The quinoa will cook faster: it only needs about 10 minutes to soak up all the broth. Put cherries in a bowl and pour the boiling water over them. Add the whiskey and let the mixture steep for 20 minutes until the cherries plump. When the rice is ready, pull the bay leaf out and discard. Add cherries and half their liquid to the rice, add remaining ingredients.
