Bought a pork loin at Costco. Wonderful value but not enough fat on
it; it would dry out too quickly. Decided to put the fat inside it so
it would contribute moisture and flavor.

Froze some Italian sausage links for a few hours to firm them.

Cut a piece about a foot long from the loin and pushed a thin-bladed
French chef's knife through it lengthwise down the center. Essentially
made a tube of the piece of loin with a slot all the way through it.
Pushed the sausage links all through the loin. Roasted it at 275F
until the sausage was 145F on my quick-read thermometer.  Let it rest
for 15 minutes and sliced it. Beautiful.

The pork had a circular slice of sausage in the middle of every slice
of the pork and the seasonings had permeated the meat from the inside.
Most of the fat cooked out of the sausage, but enough was there to
give the roast a wonderful sense of moistness.

Easy to do, pretty to serve, tasty to eat.

I've always stuffed loins with forcemeat. The frozen sausage idea
is new to me and a real timesaver. Good one.

I usually slice the loin about 1 1/2 inches thick, rub with olive oil,
garlic, salt and pepper and grill them. Comes out very moist with the
grill flavor. plus at Krogers the meat is on sale alot for around 1.79 a
pound.

Sounds like a fantastic idea using the sausage, can't wait to try it.
I get the same pork loins at Costco and mine don't end up dry.  I got
a recipe from the 30-minute meals show and she said:  rub with olive
oil, balsamic vinegar, garlic salt and pepper.  She cooked 4 pieces
uncovered in a 500 degree oven for 25 minutes.  I do this and cook all
4 at one time, freeze 2, slice the rest and have in salads, main meal,
or just for munchees.  Very moist too.

Cool.

Tonight The Amazing Kid cut slices of the raw loin about 3/4" thick.
We dusted them with protein powder, dipped into egg wash, into
seasoned TVP, back into the egg and again into the TVP. Double-dipped
pork cutlets. She did the hard stuff; pretty cool for a 12-year-old.

Sautéed them in a little butter and olive oil on medium heat until
both sides were golden. Dressed them with a mushroom sauce (poached
the shrooms in cream and reduced it), with a side of nuked broccoli
with salt and lemon juice. Lovely.
