Maple-Bacon Roasted Pork Loin image

I had seen a recipe for pork roast wrapped in bacon a good while back and made a mental note to try it. I finally got around to it this week and wowza! It was AMAZING! But, then, what's not to love, right?? There were lots of bacon/pork roast recipes to be found on the web, but in the end, I just did my own thing with inspiration...

Time 1h15m

Number Of Ingredients 8

3 Tbsp maple syrup, divided
2 tsp rubbed sage
1 tsp garlic powder
1 tsp onion powder
1 tsp black pepper
1 tsp salt
1 pork loin roast(around 3 lbs.)
12 slices thick cut bacon

Steps:

  • 1. Preheat oven to 350F
  • 2. Mix 2T of the maple syrup, the sage, garlic, onion pwdr, pepper and salt to form a paste.
  • 3. Rub the roast all over with the paste.
  • 4. Lay the strips of bacon, overlapping slightly over the top of the roast and tuck the ends underneath.
  • 5. Roast the pork for about an hour(for medium doneness. I like it a bit more done, so I adjust the time accordingly. Feel free to roast to your taste.) Remove from oven, brush the bacon with the remaining 1T of syrup. Return to oven and roast 10-15 min. more.
  • 6. Remove roast from pan and allow to rest for about 10 min. then slice and serve!
