Bacon Wrapped Pork Roast With Potatoes And Onions Recipes

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
• If pork loin is thick, cut it in half vertically so that there are 2 long, but thinner pieces of meat.
• With a knife, poke small but deep holes all throughout the meat
• Insert sliced garlic pieces into these holes.
• Season meat with salt and pepper.
• Wrap bacon slices all around the meat, making sure that no part of the loin is exposed. Bacon slices should be wrapped closely together. For two pieces of roast, it should take about a pack of bacon.
• Finely chop fresh thyme and sprinkle over meat.
• Sprinkle savory over roast.
• Take a large pan and pour in oil and wine, mixing them together.
• Place roast in pan and cover with aluminum foil (do not poke holes).
• Bake the covered roast for 2 1/2 hours, occasionally lifting cover to check liquid levels. Add water to pan as wine and oil diminishes.
• After 2 1/2 hours, remove aluminum foil from pan and continue to cook roast for an additional 30 minutes. This will cause the bacon to become crispy. Add a little wine or water during the last 30 minutes. The end result will be a crunchy outside, with a tender, juicy inside.
• Slice and serve with mashed potatoes, using the juices from the pan as a gravy.

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.).

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 300 degrees F (150 degrees C).
• Rub the pork loin with olive oil and place in a roasting pan. Drape slices of bacon over the top. Combine the chicken stock, rosemary, thyme, basil, sage and garlic. Pour over the roast. Place onions around the sides. Cover with a lid or aluminum foil.
• Bake for 1 hour and 30 minutes. Remove the lid or foil, and continue to bake for 30 minutes, or until the bacon is browned. Cook to at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Steps:

• Layer onion slices on cut side of two potato halves; top with other potato half. Wrap each potato with two bacon strips. Secure with toothpicks. Place on a lightly greased baking pan. Bake, uncovered, at 325° for 1 hour and 20 minutes or until potato is tender and bacon is crispy. Discard toothpicks.
