By charlotteh371

Ingredients

• 3 lbs boneless pork loin
• 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
• 2 tbsp olive oil
• 6 sprigs fresh rosemary (divided)
• 6 sprigs fresh thyme (divided)
• 2 tbsp steak seasoning
• 1 tsp freshly ground black pepper
• 6 cloves garlic (crushed)
• 6 slices bacon

Preparation

Step 1

Pre-heat the oven to 400°.
Brush the pork loin on all sides with the balsamic vinegar and olive oil.
Cut six slits in the loin to make a nice little home for the crushed garlic.
Use a garlic press to crush one clove of garlic into each slit, then push the crushed garlic well into the pork.
After the pork is all garlic-ed up, put the spices together and get ready to rub!
Place the steak seasoning, black pepper, 4 sprigs chopped rosemary and 4 sprigs chopped thyme in a small bowl together.
Rub the spice mixture on to the loins, making sure to cover both sides evenly.
Place 2 sprigs of rosemary and 2 sprigs of thyme on the loin.
Wrap the loin in bacon, making sure to wrap up those sprigs of rosemary and thyme.
Place in the oven to roast.
After 40-45 minutes, place a meat thermometer into the center of the pork.
The pork will register at 165° F when ready.
