BONE IN SIRLOIN PORK ROAST RECIPES RECIPES

Steps:

• Have butcher cut the chine bone in between each rib of the pork roast to make carving easier.
• Leave the fat cap on for added moisture and flavor.
• Line a large stockpot or bucket with a plastic bag (I use a paint bucket I purchased from a paint store specifically for brining).
• Pour water in and dissolve the salt and brown sugar.
• Add peppercorns and a few thyme sprigs.
• Place the pork roast in the brine and if using a bag, tie the bag closed so the pork is submerged.
• Refrigerate (I surround with ice) for 6 hours.
• Remove pork from the brine and dry thoroughly with paper towels.
• Preheat oven to 400°F.
• Lay thyme sprigs all over the roast, season with salt and pepper, then secure with butcher's twine to help hold the shape.
• Coat a roasting pan with olive oil and set on 2 burners over high heat until almost smoking.
• Sear the pork, fat side down, until caramelized.
• Turn the roast to brown all sides, about 10 minutes.
• To flavor the pork drippings, scatter carrots, garlic, onion, shallots and more thyme sprigs in the pan, and then transfer the roast to the oven.
• Roast until a meat thermometer, inserted in the thickest part of the roast registers 150°F-- about 1 hour.
• Remove the pork to a cutting board to rest while preparing the pan sauce.
• Discard the aromatic vegetables and set the pan on 2 burners over high heat.
• Deglaze the pan with apple juice, scraping up the yummy bits off the bottom.
• Reduce by a third, season with salt& pepper, and whisk in the butter to smooth out.
• Serve.
• Enjoy!
