Dijon-Rubbed Pork with Rhubarb Sauce Recipe
  • Prep: 15 min. Bake: 1 hour + standing
  • Yield: 12 Servings
15 60 75

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless pork loin roast (3 pounds)
  • 1/4 cup Dijon mustard
  • 6 garlic cloves, minced
  • 1 tablespoon minced fresh rosemary or 1 teaspoon dried rosemary, crushed
  • 3/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/2 teaspoon pepper
  • SAUCE:
  • 3 cups sliced fresh or frozen rhubarb
  • 1/3 cup orange juice
  • 1/3 cup sugar
  • 1 tablespoon cider vinegar

Directions

  • Score the surface of the pork, making diamond shapes 1/4 in. deep. In a small bowl, combine the mustard, garlic, rosemary, salt and pepper; rub over pork.
  • Coat a roasting pan and rack with cooking spray; place pork on rack in pan. Bake, uncovered, at 350° for 1 hour or until a thermometer reads 145°. Let stand for 10 minutes before slicing.
  • In a small saucepan, bring the sauce ingredients to a boil. Reduce heat; cover and simmer for 8-12 minutes or until rhubarb is tender. Serve warm with pork. Yield: 12 servings (1-1/2 cups sauce).

Editor's Note: If using frozen rhubarb, measure rhubarb while still frozen, then thaw completely. Drain in a colander, but do not press liquid out.

Made this a yr. or so ago and we loved it. Went hunting for it this yr. & have now saved it to my recipe box. I also froze rhubarb this yr. for the sole purpose of making this recipe throughout the winter.

This is the second time I reached for this recipe. Definately a keeper. I'm using it for the Rhubarb Sauce this time, but I have fond memories of the time I used it with the Pork Tenderloin.

This was real tasty. I used minced garlic out of a jar, next time I will use FRESH. I wasn't sure if my husband and kids would go for the rhubarb sauce but they did.
