CHERRY GLAZED PORK LOIN

There are so many ways to prepare pork loin but I think you will find this recipe will be a favorite at your house as it is at mine. I prefer to cook my pork loin on the grill but you can also cook this in the oven as well. If you are grilling place your pork loin on a disposable pan and place in the center of your grill. Remember to always cook with indirect heat. Never cook over your coals. You will want to cook the pork loin for approximately one hour, depending on the size of the loin, at a temperature of about 325 degrees. Use a meat thermometer to check from time to time. You don't want to over cook your loin. If you are cooking in an oven, preheat your oven to 325 degrees. Your pork loin should be at room temperature when place on the grill or in the oven. Prepare your loin by rubbing on Big Daddy's Superb-Herb Rub before cooking. While your loin is cooking prepare your Cherry Glaze. Below are the ingredients you will need and instructions.

INGREDIENTS:

1/2 cup of NC General Store Brand Cherry Butter
1/2 cup of Balsamic Vinegar
3 tablespoons brown sugar (optional)
4 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil

Place ingredients into a small saucepan. Stir over medium heat but do not boil. You just want everything to blend in. Reduce heat and simmer. Once you pork loin is ready cut slices half way through the loin and pour on your graze. Let stand for about 10 to 15 minutes then finish slicing and serve.
