Ingredients

  • 4 lbs Boneless pork loin roast
  • 1 tbsp Kosher Salt
  • 1 tsp Freshly ground black Pepper
  • 2 Fresh Rosemary Sprigs
  • 5 Whole Garlic Cloves divided

Instructions

Prep the pork

  • Remove the pork from the package and pat dry with paper towels.
  • Trim fat cap, if over 1/2″ thick with a sharp knife, leaving 1/4″ layer of fat.
  • Score the fat, using a sharp knife to create a crosshatch pattern.
  • Season the roast liberally on all sides with salt.
  • Place the roast in a vacuum seal bag and add 3 smashed garlic cloves and a sprig of fresh rosemary.
  • Seal the bag by removing all of the air and sealing the bag shut.

Sous Vide the Pork

  • When the water has come to temperature, slowly add the pork roast to the water bath, making sure there are no leaks in the bag.
  • Allow the pork loin to cook in the sous vide water bath for 4 hours then carefully remove the bag.

Sear the pork loin

  • Allow the pork loin to rest 10 minutes in the bag.
  • Remove the pork roast from the bag and pat it dry.

  • When the skillet is just smoking, place the pork, fat side down in the skillet.
  • Brown the fat cap for 5 to 7 minutes, until golden.
  • Add the garlic and rosemary to the pan in the drippings.
  • Using a spoon, ladle the fragrant garlic and rosemary fat drippings over the top of the pork.
  • Then, using long tongs flip the pork and brown all other sides, 3 to 4 minutes.

Serve
