| Easy Brown Sugar and Dijon Glazed Pork Loin |
This is a very simple recipe for a beautifully glazed pork loin roast. We had this one last night with some country cranberry stuffing, stir fried vegetables and roasted garlic potatoes. I use this method all the time for baked ham but decided to try it with a pork loin roast and it was succulent and delicious. Well worth trying
Trim the fat from the roast, leaving only a quarter inch of fat on top at the most. Season the pork loin with salt and pepper and open roast the pork on a rack in a 425 degree F oven for 1/2 hour.
Brush the entire surface of the roast with a large grain dijon mustard, then press brown sugar into the mustard, all over the roast. Return the roast to the oven, reduce the heat to 375 degrees F. Continue to roast until the internal temperature of the roast hits 175 degrees F on a meat thermometer. Baste the roast in the drippings/sauce several times during the cooking time. Let the roast rest for 10 minutes before carving and serving.

I bought a pork loin last weekend but had NO idea what to do with it. PROBLEM SOLVED. This sounds amazingly easy. Mustard and brown sugar and pork is classic. Can't wait to try this!

Making this for dinner :)
Dinner tonight thanks to you and pinterest!
I am making this now- I think I will cook until internal temp is 145 then let it rest to 150 or so. 175 is a bit high!
I made this last night for our early first christmas dinner , and wow! This was so moist and just the right amount of sweet and tangy. Was a huge hit with my family, that thete were only 4pieces left :).
Thank you for sharing this
This was the most amazing roast I have ever tried....I specifically used Grey Poupon Country Dijon mustard. I changed it up a little bit...basted at the end quite a bit and then broiled for about 6 minutes. When I broiled it, it looked just like the pic and was amazing juicy. I think the broiling at the end really made it amazing!!!
This looks quite tasty! Love the sweet outer crust =)
I made this for dinner tonight only I used pork tenderloin and my entire family said it was amazing! I did place it under the broiler for about 4-5 min. Super easy and super succulent! Thanks for sharing
