Pork Loin In Yogurt Recipes

ROASTED PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).
• Crush garlic with rosemary, salt and pepper, making a paste. Pierce meat with a sharp knife in several places and press the garlic paste into the openings. Rub the meat with the remaining garlic mixture and olive oil.
• Place pork loin into oven, turning and basting with pan liquids. Cook until the pork is no longer pink in the center, about 1 hour. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove roast to a platter. Heat the wine in the pan and stir to loosen browned bits of food on the bottom. Serve with pan juices.

PORK LOIN WITH CREAMY DIJON YOGURT SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat oven to 375°F Place pork in small roasting pan. Sprinkle with herbs, garlic, salt and pepper. Cover tightly and bake about 1 hour or until inside is 160 degrees (*Or place all previous ingredients in a foil pack and grill for about 30 minutes or until inside is 160 degrees ).
• While pork cooks, whisk together all sauce ingredients in a small bowl; allow to come to about room temperature. When pork is done, slice and top with sauce. Garnish with more dill, if desired.

PORK LOIN IN YOGURT

Steps:

• Combine the yogurt, garlic, 1 teaspoon of the salt and pepper in a small bowl. Place the pork loin in a shallow baking dish and coat well with the yogurt, salt/pepper mixture. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for several hrs or overnight. When ready let the loin set at room temp for 1 hr before cooking. Pre heat your "BGE" to 300F-350F degrees and stabilized. (Ave. 325F) Use a HD rib rack or roasting rack above a drip pan (FB is a option) FB = Firebrick or pizza stone over the grill with drip pan and rack. Wipe the yogurt marinade from the loin and place it on the rib rack sitting in the drip pan. Combine sugar and mustard seeds and coat the loin with the mixture. Sprinkle the loin with some additional kosher salt lightly. Put in the Egg and roast for approximately 1 hour and a half at 300F-350F degrees, and then raise the temperature in the egg to 450 degrees by opening the vents wider, especially the bottom vent. Continue roasting (approximately ½ hour longer) until you reach 145F-150F degrees on the internal thermometer. This will give a crispy outer crusting. Remove from the Egg, let stand 15 minutes, (I would wrap in aluminum foil for this period), and then slice and serve with your favorite sauce or sides. Notes: Add smoking woods, ie, hickory, apple, etc, to the charcoal in the "BGE" after lighting just before inserting your meats. It will take a few minutes for the "BGE" to come back to your set temperature. Wait for a while before adjusting vents any further to be sure of stability. Insert the Polder thermometer in the thickest portion of the meat parallel to the bone if a bone in loin. Remember to remove the polder when crisping the outer layer of the loin at 450F degrees. A limit of 375F is tops for the Polder and cable. Crisping is only a option..and can be excluded. Just add a bit more time and wait for the proper internal temperature of 145F-150F
