Directions
Apple-Buttered Pork Loin,This recipe comes from the Better Homes and Gardens ‘so good with FRUIT’ cookbook, & was originally meant to be roasted on a spit, over charcoal. I’ve adapted it for oven cooking since I have no spit! The finished roast should have a crisp jacket of peanut & apple butters with a tangy orange accent.,How do you think this recipe would work for smoking instead of putting it in the oven? I would smoked it for about 6 hrs at 250 degrees. I would think it should be as long as I reach the correct internal temp.,Great flavor – the apple butter/peanut butter/orange flavors produce something different and delicious. I added some cayenne for a little more zip.
