Garlic Roasted Pork Loin Sweet Potatoes With Raspberry Chipotle Glaze Recipes

GARLIC ROASTED PORK LOIN & SWEET POTATOES WITH RASPBERRY CHIPOTLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
• In a food processor or blender, puree the garlic cloves, Italian seasoning, & enough olive oil to make a spreadable paste.
• Mix 1/4 of the garlic oil mixture in a small bowl with 1/2 cup of the raspberry chipotle sauce. In a large bowl, combine the sweet potatoes with the sauce mixture. Set aside.
• Season the pork roast with salt & pepper; sear quickly on all sides in a hot pan. Place in a 9x13 baking pan & rub the remaining garlic oil mixture all over it. Pour the sweet potatoes around the pork roast. Spread the remaining 1/2 cup of raspberry chipotle sauce on top of the pork roast.
• Bake uncovered - until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees, about 1 hour. Let rest 10 minutes before slicing.

SMOKED PORK LOIN WITH RASPBERRY CHIPOTLE GLAZE

Steps:

• Preheat stovetop or outdoor smoker to approximately 230 degrees F.
• Trim the white "silver skin" from the pork loin and lightly coat the entire loin with olive oil. Sprinkle the rub liberally on all sides of the loin.
• Place pork in the smoker and smoke until internal temperature or pork reaches 150 degrees F, about 1 1/2 to 2 hours. Remove pork from smoker and wrap lightly in aluminum foil.
• Meanwhile, preheat broiler.
• Place the jam in a medium bowl and stir in about 1/3 of the chipotle sauce. Mix well, adding more chipotle sauce until the heat and taste reach your personal preference.
• Unwrap the pork and cover with the glaze. Place on a broiler pan and broil until glaze is bubbling, about 3 minutes. Slice pork against the grain and serve.
