  • 1 large pork loin trimmed of excessive fat
  • 1 ounce per pound of:
    Red Creek All-Purpose Marinade or
    Red Creek Bold & Spicy All Purpose Marinade (for a "spicer" pork loin)
  • Honey or Brown Sugar
  • Corn starch or Arrowroot
  • Apricots, pineapple or cherries
Score fat side of loin and using 1 oz. (2 tablespoons) marinade per pound of pork loin, marinate whole loin in two-gallon size plastic zip-lock bag for one hour - longer if preferred. After marinating, place loin on rack, scored side up, in roasting pan in low to moderate oven and roast until done, basting occasionally with marinade or a mixture of marinade and pan drippings. During last 15 minutes, mix honey (or brown sugar) with pan drippings, and baste until loin is browned and glazed. Thicken the sweetened pan drippings with small amount of arrowroot or cornstarch and add apricots, pineapple, cherries, or a mixture of the three, for warm compote topping to serve over loin slices. **Loin can be baked in foil until nearly done and removed to rack for basting and browning during last 15 - 30 minutes.

This recipe works well out on the grill, too!
