Pork Loin

Cheddar Grits

Apple and Sunchoke Salad

Method

Preparation of Pork Loin

  1. 1

    Prepare the Marinade

    In a small bowl, mix together the olive oil, garlic powder, onion powder, salt, black pepper, and chopped rosemary.

  2. 2

    Marinate the Pork Loin

    Rub the marinade all over the pork loin and let it sit for at least 30 minutes, or refrigerate for up to 4 hours for more flavor.

Grilling the Pork Loin

  1. 3

    Preheat Grill

    Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 400°F or 200°C).

  2. 4

    Grill the Pork Loin

    Place the marinated pork loin on the grill. Grill for about 20-25 minutes, turning occasionally, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).

  3. 5

    Rest the Pork Loin

    Once done, remove the pork loin from the grill and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.

Preparing Cheddar Grits

  1. 6

    Boil Water

    In a medium saucepan, bring 4 cups of water to a boil.

  2. 7

    Cook Grits

    Once the water is boiling, slowly whisk in the grits. Reduce heat to low and cook for about 20-25 minutes, stirring occasionally.

  3. 8

    Add Cheese and Butter

    When the grits are thick and creamy, stir in the cheddar cheese, butter, and salt. Mix until well combined and cheese is melted.

Apple and Sunchoke Salad Preparation

  1. 9

    Prepare the Salad Ingredients

    Thinly slice the apple and sunchokes. Rinse and dry the dandelion greens.

  2. 10

    Assemble the Salad

    In a bowl, combine the apple slices, sunchokes, and dandelion greens.

  3. 11

    Dress the Salad

    Drizzle with olive oil and lemon juice, then season with salt and black pepper to taste. Toss gently to combine.
