Instructions

  1. Make the stuffing

    Brown the crumbled sausage. Sauté the onion, celery, and jalapeños until softened, then add garlic, rosemary, and thyme. Mix in the parsley, cornbread crumbs, chicken broth, smoked paprika, salt, and pepper. Cool completely.

  2. Butterfly the pork

    Slice the loin lengthwise like a book, stopping ½ inch from the far edge, and pound to about ½ inch thick.

  3. Stuff & roll

    Season the inside lightly, spread the stuffing evenly, and roll up tightly.

  4. Bacon wrap

    Lay the bacon slices overlapping and roll the stuffed loin in the bacon. Tie with twine if needed.

  5. Sear

    Season the outside and sear in olive oil over medium-high heat until the bacon is crispy on all sides, 8–10 minutes.

  6. Oven finish

    Bake at 375°F until internal temp reaches 138–140°F. Remove and rest 10–15 minutes — it will carry over to about 145°F.

  7. Make the gravy

    In the same pan, whisk in the flour and cook 1–2 minutes. Add the beef broth and Worcestershire, and simmer until thickened. Season with black pepper and salt.

  8. Slice & serve

    Remove the twine if used, slice into rounds, and spoon the gravy over the top.
