Maple Glazed Roast Loin Of Pork With Apple Puree Food

ROAST MAPLE PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Season the pork loin with 1 tablespoon of salt and a generous amount of black pepper. Chop the garlic and sage together to make a coarse rub for the pork. Rub it into the pork loin. Cover with plastic and refrigerate for a few hours, preferably overnight. Remove it from the refrigerator 30 minutes before you're going to cook. (Note: Please allow 8 hours for overnight marinating.)
• Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Set a medium sauté pan over medium-high heat. Add the bacon to the pan, and fry until crisp and fully rendered. Transfer the bacon to a paper towel-lined plate with a slotted spoon. Return the pan to the heat.
• Add the orange juice, maple syrup, apple cider vinegar, and chili powder to the sauté pan with the rendered bacon fat. Simmer the glaze until it thickens and becomes syrupy, about 2-3 minutes. Once the glaze has thickened, drizzle in a tablespoon of olive oil, for added body and glossiness. Set aside.
• Trim, clean, and halve the Brussels sprouts. Spread them out on a rimmed baking sheet. Set aside.
• Peel and cut the butternut squash into quarter-moon shapes, ¼-inch thick. Spread out on a second rimmed baking sheet. Set aside.
• Remove the plastic wrap from the rested pork loin, and discard. Brush the sage/garlic mixture off and place the loin, fat side up, on the third rimmed baking sheet. Drizzle half of the cooled glaze over the pork loin, smearing it in with your hands. Coat the vegetables in the remaining olive oil, scatter a few sprigs of thyme on the trays, and season with salt. Toss with the remaining glaze. Place the trays in the oven and set a timer for 10 minutes.
• Check the vegetables after 10 minutes; remove from the oven once they're golden brown and slightly soft in the middle. Drop the oven's temperature to 375 F and continue roasting the pork loin until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest end reads 140 degrees F, about 20-30 minutes. Remove from the oven and let rest.
• Spread the roasted vegetables on a large serving platter. Slice half of the pork loin, and arrange on top of the vegetables. Garnish with the cooked bacon and lemon wedges. Serve immediately.

MAPLE BAKED PORK LOIN ROAST

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Heat the oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat until smoking. Meanwhile, season the pork roast with salt and pepper, then dredge in flour, and shake off excess. Sear in hot oil until browned on all sides, about 1 minute per side.
• Place onto a large sheet of aluminum foil set on top of a baking sheet; set aside. Stir together the maple syrup, ketchup, water, and garlic. Pour 3/4 of this sauce over the pork. Fold the foil over the pork, and seal to form a packet.
• Bake in preheated oven until the internal temperature reaches 170 degrees F (75 degrees C), about 2 hours. Carefully open up the foil packet, and broil for a few minutes until the sauce glazes the meat. Serve with remaining sauce.

MAPLE-GLAZED ROAST LOIN OF PORK WITH APPLE PUREE

Steps:

• Preheat the oven to 450 degrees.
• Place the pork on a platter and dredge well with the cornstarch. Sprinkle with salt and pepper to taste.
• Place in a roasting pan, ribs down, and set in the oven. After 10 minutes, reduce heat to 325 degrees and brush the loin liberally with the maple syrup; reserve remaining syrup. Continue roasting, basting every 7 minutes, until the loin reaches an internal temperature of 155 degrees, about 1 1/4 hours, or until desired degree of doneness.
• Meanwhile, wash, quarter and core the apples (do not peel). Place in a nonaluminum pan with 3 tablespoons of the remaining syrup. Cover and simmer over medium heat until apples burst and are soft, about 15 minutes. Process through a food mill or sieve and set aside.
• When the loin is done, remove from the oven and set aside on a platter. Drain the fat from the pan and pour in the broth and cider. Reduce over medium heat by half. Strain into a sauce boat.
• Serve the roast with the sauce and apple puree on the side.

CHILE MAPLE GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a saucepan on medium heat, add all ingredients for the Chile Maple Glaze and reduce by half. Be careful not to allow to boil over.
• Preheat oven to 450 degrees F.
• Season tenderloin with salt and pepper. Sear tenderloin in a saute pan, roast in a hot oven until medium rare, and then brush with glaze and cook another couple minutes. Caribou should be served rare because of its leanness, veal medium rare, and pork medium. Transfer meat from the pan to a cutting board and add the glaze to pan with veal stock and butter. Reduce until thickened and season with salt and pepper. Serve with Braised Red Cabbage and Sweet Potato Puree.
• In a heavy-bottomed pot on medium heat, melt the butter in the oil. Add the bacon and onions and cook for 2 to 3 minutes. Add the remaining ingredients and cover. Turn down the heat to low. Cook for 20 minutes, stirring every few minutes. When cabbage is tender, season with salt and pepper.
• Place all ingredients into a large pot, bring to a simmer, and cook for 30 minutes. Strain off excess liquid, puree, and season.
