Dutch Oven Pork Roast Recipe
  • Prep: 10 min. Grill: 1 hour + standing
  • Yield: 9 Servings
10 60 70

Ingredients

  • 1 boneless whole pork loin roast (3 to 4 pounds)
  • 1 jar (16 ounces) salsa
  • 1 can (16 ounces) kidney beans, undrained
  • 1/4 teaspoon salt
  • 1/4 teaspoon pepper

Directions

  • Prepare grill or campfire for low heat, using 20-24 charcoal briquettes or large wood chips.
  • Line a Dutch oven with heavy-duty aluminum foil; add pork. Combine the salsa, kidney beans, salt and pepper; pour over pork.
  • Cover Dutch oven. When briquettes or wood chips are covered with white ash, place Dutch oven directly on top of 10-12 of them. Using long-handled tongs, place remaining briquettes on pan cover.
  • Cook for 1 to 1-1/4 hours or until thermometer reads 145°. To check for doneness, use the tongs to carefully lift the cover. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Yield: 9 servings (3 cups sauce).

Tip

Camp Taco Salad

To adapt our favorite taco salad recipe for camping, I cook the ground beef at home until no longer pink. I also combine lettuce, cheese and diced tomatoes in a resealable bag. On site, I simmer the meat with a can of chili beans, then add a packet of taco seasoning with water. Come time to eat, top tortilla chips with the meat/bean mixture and other fixings. —Susan W., Minot AFB, North Dakota

I made this in my stone roaster. Meat was very tender, but it did not have much flavor.

Um.m.m.m.m! Used crock pot instead of grill. Realized after should have used about 1/2 salsa amount-made a great "gravy" with mashed potatoes. Roast was indeed very tender and tasty.
