Grilled Pork Loin Recipes, Hints & Videos

Print

Pork bills itself as "The Other White Meat", but everyone knows it's much more flavorful and satisfying than chicken or fish. And although chops are fine, nothing tastes better; no matter what the season, than a grilled pork loin. The loin is a cut of meat from the top of the rib cage and is very popular in the US. It is also the most tender cut of pork available.

As far as the nutritional value of pork loin goes, it is a good source of Vitamin B6 and Phosphorus as well as a very good source of Protein, Thiamin, Niacin and Selenium. And although pork in general tends to be high in fat, if you trim as much of the excess off as possible, you can mitigate this problem. As well, grilling allows much of the fat to fall off into the grill and off your roast. With all this in mind, check out Recipe4Living.com's great grilled pork loin recipes the next time you want something tender and delicious.
