Heritage Pork Loin Roast

This Berkshire heritage pork was a special splurge (thanks Wassi's!). It is a tradition to have Pork Roast on New Year's day in my family so we decided to go all out. This is a bone-in roast smoked on my Big Green Egg for about 3 hours at 250 deg F.

Prior to roasting, I scored the fat cap and rubbed in a mixture of olive oil, fresh rosemary, thyme, garlic and salt and pepper and let the roast sit for an hour. I placed the pork fat side up in the 250 deg grill set up for indirect cooking and let it roast until in the internal temperature reached 145 deg F. I basted the pork with red wine about every 30 minutes during the roast.

After removing from the grill, wrap in foil and let rest for at least 30 minutes.

Slice and serve a chop at a time.
