ROAST PORK LOIN WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
• In a large ovenproof skillet heat the vegetable oil over high heat. Season the pork loin all over generously with salt and pepper. Sear the meat until golden brown on all sides, about 2 to 3 minutes per side. Transfer the meat to a plate and set it aside.
• Add the onion, carrot, celery, garlic, herb sprigs, and 2 tablespoons of the butter to the skillet. Stir until the vegetables are browned, about 8 minutes. Stir in the sliced apples, then push the mixture to the sides and set the pork loin in the middle of the skillet along with any collected juices on the plate. Transfer the skillet to the oven and roast the loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the meat registers 140 to 150 degrees F, about 30 to 35 minutes. (See Cook's Note.)
• Transfer the pork a cutting board and cover it loosely with foil while you make the sauce. Arrange the apples and vegetables on a serving platter and set aside. Remove and discard the herb sprigs. Return the skillet to a high heat and add the vinegar scraping the bottom with a wooden spoon to loosen up any browned bits. Reduce by half then add the cider and reduce by about half again. Pull the skillet from the heat and whisk in the mustard, and the remaining 2 tablespoons of cold butter. Adjust the seasoning with salt and pepper, to taste.
• Remove the strings from the roast and slice into 1/2-inch thick pieces and arrange over the apple mixture. Drizzle some sauce over meat and serve the rest on the side.
• Cook's Note: Pork cooked this way will be slightly pink. If desired, cook the pork to 160 degrees F, but be aware that this lean cut will not be as moist at the higher temperature.

PORK LOIN STUFFED WITH APPLES

Steps:

• Cook bacon in a large skillet over medium heat until crisp and golden brown, about 8 minutes. Toss apples with sugar in a bowl. Increase heat in skillet to medium-high heat, add apples, and saute until they are golden, about 10 minutes. Season to taste with salt and pepper, then transfer apples to a bowl. In the same skillet, melt butter over medium heat. Add onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until golden, about 20 minutes. Add mushrooms and cook until they begin to brown about 20 minutes. Increase heat to high, add 1/4 cup vinegar, and stir with a wooden spoon until vinegar evaporates, about 1 minute. Add sage and season with salt and pepper. Add mushroom-onion mixture and bacon to apples and allow to cool. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Stand the loin with the bone side facing away from you and make a 3-inch slit, about 1 1/2 inches down the middle of each chop to make a pocket. Spoon about 1/4 cup apple mixture into each pocket. Season stuffed loin with salt and pepper, transfer to a roasting pan and roast for 1 hour. Pour remaining vinegar and 1/4 cup water into pan and scrape browned bits off bottom with a wooden spoon. Scatter remaining apple mixture around loin and continue roasting until the internal temperature of pork reaches 150 degrees (note, internal temperature will rise to 160 after resting), about 1 1/4 hours. Transfer pork to a platter, allow to rest for 15 minutes, then slice into chops and serve with apples.;
