Sous Vide Honey Garlic Pork Loin

One of my favorite ways to cook a Pork Loin is with Sous Vide. Typically it is very easy to overcook Pork if you do it in the oven or smoker. Nothing is worse than spending time and effort only to have a dried out piece of meat that lacks the juiciness and flavor you are looking for.

Cooking the Pork Loin in a Sous Vide bath at a lower temperature for a longer period of time guarantees the Pork will be complete cooked and safe to eat, and as a bonus have a flavor profile that you cannot achieve with any other cooking method.

Top the Pork Loin with a very easy to make Honey and Garlic sauce and you will have a meal that will impress your family and friends. Let me show you how.

Ingredients:

3-5 pound Pork Loin

Kosher Salt

Ground Black Pepper

Garlic Powder

Marinade:

1/3 cup Honey

1/4 cup Apple Cider Vinegar

1 Tablespoon Soy Sauce

Glaze:

4 Tablespoons Butter

4-5 cloves of minced Garlic

1/2 Tablespoon Italian Seasoning

1 1/2 Tablespoons of Corn Starch

Start by seasoning the Pork Loin with Kosher Salt, ground Black Pepper and Garlic Powder. Set aside.

Next prepare the marinade by mixing the Honey, Apple Cider Vinegar and Soy Sauce, Mix well. Place the seasoned Pork Loin in a vacuum sealer bag and add around 3/4 of the marinade. Seal in the bag and set aside.

Heat your Sous Vide bath to 140 degrees. Place the Pork Loin in the Sous Vide bath and cook for 5-6 hours. For rare Sous Vide cook at 135 degrees, or 140 for medium, or 145 for well done.

When done remove from the bath and bag. Make sure to save the liquid from the bag.Dry off completely with paper towels. Set aside while you prepare the Glaze.

Prepare a slurry with a few Tablespoons of the bag liquid with about 1 1/2 Tablespoons of Corn Starch. Stir and set aside.

In a saucepan melt the Butter, minced Garlic and Italian seasoning. Add the remaining liquid from the bag. Simmer and stir. Add the slurry and allow to thicken.

The last step is to sear the Pork Loin over high heat for a few minutes. You can do this on a grill, oven broiler or in a frying pan. Once a nice bark has formed remove and serve. Enjoy!
