BBQ Pork Loin with Coca Cola BBQ Gravy

A few years spent in North Carolina introduced us to a number of different ingredients to use in recipes such as potato chips and Coca Cola.  So as I was pondering what to do with the pork loin last night I thought back to that time and came up with this BBQ gravy that came out quite nice.

Coca Cola BBQ Gravy

Ingredients

1. 1 cup ketchup
2. ½ cup Coca Cola
3. ½ cup brown sugar
4. 2 Tbs Lea & Perrins Worcestershire Sauce
5. 1 shallot finely diced
6. 1 clove of garlic finely diced
7. 2 -3 dashes Tabasco sauce

In a sauce pot place all the ingredients and bring to a boil, stirring to keep sugar from burning.  Once a boil is reached remove from the heat and set aside.

BBQ Pork Loin

1. 4-5 pound Pork loin
2. 2 Tbs Flour
3.  2 Tbs 1/2 & 1/2
4. Lawry’s seasoning salt and pepper

Take a pork loin season lightly with Lawry’s seasoning salt, and pepper on all sides.  Brown lightly on all sides.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Once browned, place in the slow cooker and pour the BBQ sauce over it, turn to cover, place lid on and cook for about 4 hours basting the top with the sauce every 15 minutes or so.  Just before serving, remove the roast from the pot turn heat up to high, and in a small container or bowl take 2 tablespoons of flour and 2 tablespoons of ½ & ½ and mix thoroughly and pour into the BBQ Sauce in the slow cooker  and stir to combine and thicken.  Slice the roast thin and serve the gravy on the side
