Rosemary Crusted Pork

Another What We're Eating Recipe. This girl knows what she's doing!!! The veggies were amazing. I could have made ameal just of those. My pork loin was perfect on the end, but I ended up putting the center 1/2 in the oven for a bit to get it done enough for us. I thought the mustard sauce was wonderful (although I only had ground mustard, so used that in the place of the whole grain mustard), but Mr. L thought it was too hot/tangy for his taste. Also, she really means it when she says that you don't necessarily need to use all of the salt mixture for the pork - I used every drop, and I that was a little too much.

Bacon, Rosemary & Garlic Roasted Veggies
1 tbsp bacon fat (can substitute any oil to make it vegetarian)
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 tsp fresh rosemary, minced
8 large brussels sprouts, trimmed and cut in half lenghtwise
1 small head cauliflower, cut into florets, stem discarded
2 cups butternut squash, peeled & cut in 1' cubes
1 1/2 tsp kosher salt
1/2 tsp freshly cracked black pepper

Preheat oven to 400 degrees.

Add bacon fat to a large pot over low heat until melted. Add garlic and rosemary; stir. Sweat over low heat for about 1 minute. Remove from heat. Add the brussels sprouts, cauliflower and butternut squash to the pot. Cover the pot with a lid then shake vigorously for about 30 seconds to evenly coat the veggies with the fat. Remove the lid then sprinkle with the kosher salt and freshly cracked black pepper. Replace the lid then once again shake vigorously for about 30 seconds to evenly distribute the seasoning. Pour the seasoned veggies onto a baking sheet in a single layer. Place baking sheet into the preheated oven. Bake for approximately 45 minutes or until well caramelized and tender, tossing the veggies every 15 minutes. Serve immediately and enjoy!

Seared Rosemary Pork Tenderloin
2 tsp fresh rosemary, minced
2 tsp kosher salt
1 tsp freshly cracked black pepper
1 pork tenderloin, trimmed of silver skin
2 tbsp canola oil, or other high-smoking point oil

In a small bowl mix together the rosemary, salt and black pepper. Liberally season all sides of the pork tenderloin with the rosemary salt. You may not need all of the salt mixture.

Preheat a large saute pan with the canola oil over medium-high heat until the oil ripples from the heat but just before it starts smoking. Place the seasoned tenderloin into the pan. Sear the meat over medium-high heat for about 4 minutes until well caramelized then flip the meat a quarter turn. Sear that side for another 4 minutes. Repeat this process two more times until all areas of the pork have a nice sear and the meat is cooked to medium, about 145 degrees. The pork should cook for about a total of 16 minutes. The larger the roast the longer it will need to cook. Let rest for at least ten minutes before slicing, allowing time for the juices to be reabsorbed into the meat. Enjoy!
