APPLE STUFFED ROAST PORK LOIN

Steps:

• Trim as much fat and "silverskin" off of the pork as possible.
• With a good center cut there shouldn't be much besides the bottom.
• Then, using a boning knife cut the pork lengthwise at a 45 degree angle about an inch to an inch-and-a-half from the outside edge.
• Do this on both sides creating a wide V shape in the center of the pork, so that you can pull the chunk out.
• Take this piece that you removed and slice it into 1/4-inch to 1/2-inch strips, lengthwise so that you have about 4 to 5 cuts, set aside.
• Set the oven to preheat at 325 degrees.
• In a large mixing bowl, mix together the bread cubes, butter, milk, spices and apple until mixed well.
• The mixture shouldn't be too soft and might not clump as much as you might think.
• Stuff the mixture on top of the pork, rounding out the top.
• Don't be afraid to "overstuff" the top of the pork.
• Take the strips of pork we cut earlier and lay them out across the width of the pork loin on top of the stuffing.
• Spread them out evenly to create a pattern.
• Place the pork loin in a good-sized baking dish with extra room.
• Place any remaining stuffing around the pork to fill the pan, if possible.
• Pour the apple juice over the pork loin and the stuffing.
• Bake the pork loin at 325 degrees for up to 60 minutes.
• Check it with a meat thermometer, and when the internal temperature of the pork reaches 160 degrees, it is finished.
• If you prefer your pork well done, let it reach 170 degrees.
• This might add an additional 10 to 15 minutes cooking time.
