Honey Garlic Pork Loin Recipe


Honey Garlic Pork Loin Recipe


Ingredients
1 Pork loin in the bag
3 large garlic cloves- sliced
Approx. 6 oz. of Honey (a full bottle is about 12 oz.)
1/2 of a large onion
1/2 cup brown sugar
Seasonings:
Dried Rosemary, Dried Thyme, Dried dill, celery salt, salt, and pepper.



Directions:
  1. Preheat oven to 425 degrees & place pork loin in a 13x9 baking dish.
  2. Season the pork loin to taste.
  3. Cut slits in the meat and stick the garlic slices all the way inside the meat. Even stick some slices on the sides!
  4. Pour half of the honey (approx. 3 oz or 1/4 of a full bottle) all over the loin, making sure to get it inside the slits with garlic.
  5. Add the onions to the top of the loin.
  6. Sprinkle the brown sugar onto the onions.
  7. Add the rest of the honey. (approx. 3 oz more)
  8. Place loin into the oven (uncovered) and bake for approx. 1 hour and 30 minutes. *begin checking meat after one hour. Meat should be white. Overcooking will dry out the meat.
  9. Before serving, spoon the left over juices from the pan all over the meat.
  10. ENJOY!

  1. This was delicious, but the cooking time was significantly shorter for me. It was probably that my pork tenderloin was smaller. The question I had was, how do you prevent the honey from burning? The honey at the bottom of the pan started burning and smoke filled my kitchen about 20 minutes into baking! It was horrible! Would covering it solve that problem? Thanks!!

    PS I've used so many of your recipes and they are delicious!!
