ingredients
- 1 3 pound pork loin
- 1 pounds Applewood smoked bacon
- 1/3 cup prepared barbeque sauce
directions
Step One
Heat oven to 375 degrees F. Line a 13"X9" baking pan with no-stick aluminum foil. Set aside.
Step Two
Trim some of the fat from the pork loin and poke about 8-10 holes in the top of the roast, being careful not to go through to the bottom. Twist knife slightly to make small "holes".
Step Three
Pour the barbeque sauce over the roast and, with your fingers, work some of it into the holes in the roast. Rub remaining sauce over entire roast. Place in prepared roasting pan.
Step Four
Place a large piece of aluminum foil on a flat working surface. Lay 6-7 slices of bacon side-by-side on the foil. With 6-7 more slices, "weave" into the slices laying on the foil to make a "basket weave" design.
Step Five
Pick up foil with bacon on it and flip it over onto the pork loin in the roasting pan. Center the "sheet" of woven bacon on the roast and tuck edges under roast. The entire roast should be covered in bacon.
Step Six
Place in oven and roast for 1 hour 30 minutes. Remove from oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Serve with extra BBQ sauce or pan drippings if desired.
