pork loin with mustard and maple glaze

I make pork loin a few different ways but this recipe with mustard and maple glaze is one of my favorite . I usually make it in the oven but it will be delicious on the grill too. As long as you can keep the heat   steady and low enough to cook it slowly. But I must say I am not a grill master I will leave it to you.

Ingredients

3 lbs pock loin ( or any side you need)
1 cup brown sugar
1/3 cup brown sugar
2 tbs mustard
1/2 tsp Cayenne pepper
1/2 cup pure Maple syrup ( no imitation  please )
1 clove garlic
5 slices bacon.
1/2 cup white or more if needed

Instructions

Preheat the oven to 375 F degrees
if there are a lot of sinews on your loin or to much fat,  cut it off with a sharp filet knife
Make small slashes in the meat.
Cut little slivers of garlic and  introduce them  in the slashes in the meat.
Salt and pepper the meat.
put in the oven and cook for about 1 hour cover with foil

make the glaze
in a small mix the brown sugar ,the mustard , the maple syrup and the cayenne pepper.

After about an hour pull the pork out of the oven and take out the foil
brush the meat with the glaze
put back in the oven for about 30 more minutes
you may share for doneness with a meat thermometer.

 let the meat rest for a while and cut some delicious slices
