Pork Recipe Needed

TXMichelle · 10-31-2008

I have a 4 pound boneless pork loin defrosted in the fridge.

What would you do with it? Crockpot? Roast it? Rotisserie? What seasonings?

I'd like to use some of it, if not all of it, for shredded pork tacos...

I'd roast it with an apricot glaze!

get a couple pounds of lard and boil the pork in the lard until it's golden brown (on medium heat). Serve with corn tortillas, chopped cilantro and onions and a salsa verde.

Isn't a pork loin an awfully good piece of meat to be used in recipes that generally use cheaper cuts? Seems like a bit of a waste. Why not keep it simple. Bit of salt and pepper and roast it. Maybe a glaze at the end, like the apricot as suggested, or orange marmalade, or the like.

sctx usually spices it and then throws it on the smoker for a few hours. Smoke a little pineapple and assorted veggies and your done and it is easy!
