Apple Cider Balsamic Glazed Pork Loin

Prep time: 10-15 minutes

Cook time: 45-60 minutes

Servings: 6
  • 1 Coleman Pork Loin (4 pounds)
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • 1 tablespoon olive oil


Glaze:
  • 1 cup apple cider vinegar glaze
  • 6 tablespoons whole-grain mustard
  • 4 teaspoons balsamic vinegar
  • 1 teaspoon minced rosemary
  • 1 teaspoon minced sage
  • 1 teaspoon minced thyme
  • 2 teaspoons minced garlic
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil
  • 4-6 sliced apples


Preheat oven to 350 F and line sheet pan with parchment paper. Set aside.

Remove pork from the packaging and pat dry with a paper towel. Season all sides with salt and pepper, to taste.

To make the glaze: In a bowl, whisk apple cider vinegar glaze, mustard, balsamic vinegar, rosemary, sage, thyme and garlic. Add salt and pepper, to taste. In a steady stream, slowly add olive oil to emulsify while whisking.

In a large skillet, heat oil over medium-high heat. Sear pork loin for 2-3 minutes on each side.

Move pork to a lined baking sheet and brush on about half the glaze. Roast for 30 minutes.

Remove the pork from the oven and spread sliced apples around the pork loin. Brush the remaining glaze over the pork and apples. Bake 20-30 minutes, or until internal temperature reaches 150 F.

Let pork loin rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing.



Stuffing-Filled Pork Chops

Prep time: 10-15 minutes

Cook time: 30-45 minutes

Servings: 6

Stuffing:
  • 1 small box biscuit mix
  • 1 stick butter
  • 2-3 stalks finely diced celery
  • 1 finely diced onion
  • 1 teaspoon poultry seasoning
  • 1-2 cups chicken broth
  • 1 bag cornbread stuffing mix
  • 2 eggs, beaten
  • salt, to taste
  • pepper, to taste
  • 6 Coleman Natural bone-in or boneless pork chops
  • oil
  • 1 teaspoon minced garlic
  • 1 teaspoon minced sage
  • 1 teaspoon minced thyme
  • 1 teaspoon minced rosemary


To make stuffing: Bake biscuits according to package directions 1 day ahead. Dry biscuits will absorb more broth.

Preheat oven to 350 F.

In skillet, melt butter then add celery and onions. Saute until onions are translucent then add poultry seasoning and half the broth. Set aside to cool.

In a bowl, combine stuffing mix, crumbled biscuits, and eggs.

Add onion mix to bowl and mix well. Add leftover broth if the mixture is too dry. Set aside.

Slit each chop on a rounded side, cutting almost through to the bone, to create deep pockets for stuffing.

Season chops with garlic, sage, thyme and rosemary. Fill each chop with stuffing mixture. Use toothpicks to keep chops closed.

Preheat skillet with oil over medium-high heat and sear each chop 2-3 minutes on each side.

Once chops are seared, add the remaining stuffing to the pan, cover with foil, and bake for 30-45 minutes until chops reach 140 F in the center. Remove foil for the last 10 minutes to brown the top of the stuffing, if desired.
