Equipment

  • Sous Vide
  • Large Stock Pot

Ingredients

  • 4 lb. Pork Loin Roast (boneless)
  • 2 Tbsp Avocado Oil (rub it all over)
  • Kosher Salt and Black Ground Pepper (to taste- season the entire roast)
  • 1 Onion (roughly chopped)(added to sous vide bag)

Spice Rub Ingredients:

  • ¼ Cup Brown Sugar
  • 2 Tsp Garlic Powder
  • 1 Tsp Onion Powder
  • 1 Tsp Ground Cumin
  • 1 Tsp Dry Mustard Powder
  • 1 Tsp Thyme (dried)
  • ½ Tsp Ground Ginger
  • 1 Tsp Smoked Paprika
  • ½ Tsp Red Pepper Flakes

Instructions

  • Prepare the Pork Loin: Rub the pork loin roast (4 lbs.) with 2 tablespoons of avocado oil, ensuring an even coating. Generously season the entire roast with kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper.
  • Make the Spice Rub: In a small bowl, mix together thoroughly rub this spice blend all over the pork loin, pressing it into the surface to create a flavorful crust.
  • Prepare the Sous Vide Bag: Place the seasoned pork loin into a vacuum-sealable bag or a large, resealable freezer bag. Add 1 roughly chopped onion to the bag for added flavor. Seal the bag using a vacuum sealer or the water displacement method if using a freezer bag.
  • Cook Sous Vide: Preheat the sous vide water bath to 140°F (60°C) for medium doneness or 135°F (57°C) for medium-rare. Submerge the sealed bag in the water bath and cook for 2.5 to 3.5 hours.
  • Sear the Pork Loin: Once cooked, remove the pork from the bag and pat it dry with paper towels. Reserve the juices for a sauce if desired. Heat a large skillet over high heat and add a small amount of oil. Sear the pork loin on all sides for 1-2 minutes per side until a golden crust forms. Other options to accomplish a crispy crust is to us the broiler in your oven or to throw it on your gas grill for a few minutes.
  • Rest and Serve: Let the pork loin rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing to lock in the juices. Slice and serve with your favorite sides, or drizzle with a sauce made from the reserved juices for extra flavor. Enjoy!
  • **See the notes below for instructions on making sauce using the pork loin juices left in the bag.

Notes

Pork Loin Sauce
Ingredients:
3/4 Cup Pork Loin Juices ( I was able to collect about 3/4 cup of juices from my sous vide bag)
1 Cup Water
2 Tbsp Unsalted Butter
1 Tbsp Flour
Salt and Black Ground Pepper (to taste)
Instructions:
Start the Sauce:  Melt the butter in a small saucepan over medium heat. Once melted, whisk in the flour until smooth and slightly bubbly.
Add the Liquid:  Slowly pour in the reserved juices and water, whisking constantly to avoid lumps. Continue whisking until the mixture is smooth and starts to thicken.
Season and Finish: Taste the sauce and adjust with more salt and black pepper, if needed. Serve warm over the pork loin or on the side.
