Servings: servings
Instructions
- In a small bowl, mix brown sugar, garlic, dried rosemary, salt and pepper. Season pork loin with this mixture, rubbing on all sides.
- Heat vegetable oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Brown pork loin on all sides by searing for about 2-3 minutes per side.
- Let pork loin cool for a few minutes while you make the glaze. To make glaze, mix the fig jam, mustards and orange zest in a small bowl.
- Wrap pork loin with bacon by laying one slice at a time crosswise over the top of the pork, tucking ends underneath the pork loin if able. Overlap edges of bacon slices partially. Continue until loin is fully covered with bacon.
- Place bacon-wrapped loin in a slow cooker and top with fig glaze. Cover and cook on low for 3-4 hours, or until thoroughly cooked through with an internal temperature of 140 degrees F.
