Ingredients:

  • 8 cups water
  • 1/4 cup coarse salt
  • 3 tbsp sugar
  • 2 whole cloves
  • 1 cinnamon stick
  • 1 clove garlic , smashed
  • 7 rib pork loin roast (or whatever size your family needs)
  • salt and pepper , to taste.
  • 6 -8 slices bacon (enough slices to cover the top of roast)

Directions:

  1. Bring water, salt and sugar to boil.
  2. Add bay leaves, cloves, cinnamon stick, peppercorns and garlic.
  3. Simmer 5 minutes.
  4. Remove from heat and let cool to room temp.
  5. Pour over pork roast and marinate a minimum of 8 hours or overnight.
  6. Drain.
  7. Pre-heat oven to 250 degrees.
  8. Season meat with salt and pepper.
  9. Place in a roasting pan with meat side down.
  10. Drape bacon slices over the roast so the top and sides are covered with the bacon.
  11. Bake in pre-heated oven until internal temperature of the meat is 140 degrees.
  12. (Approx. 2 hours+ depending on roast size.) Let roast rest about 20 minutes before slicing.
  13. I've found it easiest to cut with an electric knife with the meat down and ribs up- slicing between the rib bones.
