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

Slow Cooker Pork Roast and Red Cabbage

I just love my slow cooker not just for apple butter but for many great meals.  Some take a little supervision and some like this recipe for pork roast & red cabbage are so simple just start it and forget it.  The only chore is to check the cabbage to make sure the liquid doesn’t all evaporate.

Ingredients for Pork Roast & Red Cabbage serves 1-4 Persons

  1. Pork Roast (just large enough to fit flat into the cooker).
  2. 1-2 jars red cabbage
  3. Salt & Pepper
  4. ¼-½ cup Dry red wine, beef stock or water

Directions for Roast Pork & Red Cabbage

In a frying pan large enough to hold the roast, lightly oil the pan.  Season the fat side of the roast with salt & pepper and brown the roast fat side down in the pan.  In the slow cooker add the red cabbage and once the roast is browned place it on top of the red cabbage, cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours until an internal temperature of at least 145°.  Check occasionally to make sure the liquid in the red cabbage remains.  If it begins to get too dry add ¼ cup of dry red wine or beef stock or water.  Monitor the liquid throughout the cooking process.  Cooking a pork roast this way leaves it moist, tender and very flavorful, I think you’ll love it.  To finish a great meal try this with glazed carrots cooked in the french style and rice and a stuffed tomato.
