Grilled Pork with Pear Salsa
SUBMITTED BY:
Suzan Ward
"My husband, Dave, and I have been in a dinner group with three other couples for a few years. We often share our recipes. The pork was served by one of the couples, and I decided to 'pear' it with this fabulous salsa."

Excellent and easy dish. I used a 4 pound pork loin and kept it whole. I tripled the marinade, using only one tablespoon of oregano, and adding a little extra cumin and some Adobo seasoning. I marinated the roast overnight in a covered roaster and turned it once. I grilled it for one and a half hours over direct heat, at approximately 400 degrees. The only change I made to the pear salsa was a sprinkling of kosher salt. The pork roast was flavorful, juicy and will make great leftovers. While two of my three kids steered clear of the salsa, my 13 year-old, my husband and I loved it. This is a keeper - I will make it one of my party staples, because it is so easy to prepare ahead.

Yum. This was great and pretty easy to make. I did not marinate the meat overnight (maybe two hours), and it was very well flavored. I think it might get too acidic if you marinate it that long. Maybe add a bit of water to the marinade if you plan marinating it for 24 hours. The salsa was very interesting. I did not have any pears, so I used apples (nothin' wrong with pork chops & applesauce). It was very tasty, but the pears are probably better since the fruit is softer. I can imagine this with cilantro instead of the mint too. Thank you for such a nice summery way to make pork loin. It was wonderful. My picky kids even ate it (sans salsa).
