Ingredients

Quantity Ingredient
4 lbs pork loin, butterflied and pounded 3/4-inch thick
2 Tbsp Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Chicken Base
2 Tbsp ground mustard
2 tsp cracked black pepper
1 lb ground sausage
1 Tbsp freshly chopped rosemary
2 Tbsp freshly chopped sage
2 Tbsp freshly chopped thyme
1 Tbsp minced garlic
2 tsp Better Than Bouillon® Roasted Garlic Base
1 cup small peeled and diced Fuji apples
¼ cup olive oil
6 oz thinly sliced prosciutto
1 cup apple cider

Directions

  • 1

    Preheat the Big Green Egg® to 400°F and set up for indirect cooking with the place setter and the porcelain grid.

  • 2

    Lay the pork loin cut side up onto a cutting board. Mix the Roasted Chicken Base, mustard, and black pepper together in a small bowl. Rub the cut side of the pork loin evenly with the mixture.

    Add the sausage to a large sauté pan over medium-high heat. Using a spoon break the sausage while it is cooking. Cook until no longer pink, 5-6 minutes. Add the rosemary, sage, thyme, garlic, Roasted Garlic Base, and apples to the pan, stir and cook for 1-2 minutes more.

    Spread the dressing mixture onto the pork loin leaving 1-inch border on all sides. Carefully roll the pork loin lengthwise into a cylinder. Rub the outside of the pork with the olive oil. Place slices of the prosciutto onto the outside of the pork loin overlapping slightly. Using butchers twine, tie the roast every 1-2 inches. Transfer the pork loin to a 2-3 inch deep grill-proof pan.

  • 5

    Pour the apple cider into the bottom of the pan. Place the pan directly onto the porcelain grid and roast for 1 hour and 40 minutes or until the internal temperature reads 145°F when checked with an instant read thermometer.

    Carefully remove the pork loin from the grill and baste with the juices in the bottom of the pan. Let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
