The Best Brined Baked BBQ'd Pork Loin
"Brined and slow cooked with a wonderful BBQ sauce/glaze. It comes out perfect every time. Obviously, you need to plan ahead for this, but it is worth it. And, this is a great weekend dinner. I like to serve this with a roasted warm potato salad and slow cooked green beans. It isn't difficult, but as I said, it does take some planning and time to prepare."

Step by Step Method
Step 1
Brine ... In a large pot, add all the ingredients and bring to a boil. Reduce to low and simmer 5 minutes. Remove from the heat and cool completely.
Step 2
Pork ... Rinse the pork off and add to a large ziplock bag or glass bowl, seal or cover with saran wrap and marinate 24 hours.
Step 3
Sauce ... Add all the ingredients to a small sauce pan and bring to a boil. Remove from the heat and cool. You will be basting the pork loin as it cooks.
Step 4
Bake ... Oven set at 325 degrees, middle shelf. Add the pork to a roasting pan on a rack. If you don't have a rack, you can use a couple of carrots or thick onion slices, so it isn't setting directly on the bottom. Baste the pork and put in the oven; continuing to baste every 30 minutes or so as it cooks. It should take approximately 2-2 1/2 hours. Remove the roast when the temperature reaches 150-155; as it rests, the temp will reach 160 degrees.
Step 5
Serve ... Let the roast rest at least 10 minutes before serving covered with foil. Slice and ENJOY!
