I did sub dijon mustard for the grainy mustard, as that was what was open in the fridge. I felt the garlic was a bit much. (Maybe my garlic cloves were oversized?) Otherwise it was OK. It was very easy, but I wasn't too impressed with the taste. Just baking with some seasoning and tons of garlic would have been about the same. Also, the drips on the bottom of the broiler pan that I used were very stubborn to clean. I'd recommend lining the pan with foil if you use a broiler pan as I did.

This made a tender pork loin. The garlic overpowered the other flavors in mine, but that's my fault (used dehydrated garlic and didn't measure). I did find that my 3 1/2 pound loin cooked in an hour and a half at 350*, much quicker than the recipe suggested. I'm using the leftovers tonight in Recipe #186121 Quick N'Dirty Ranch Style Beans...should be yummy!

really good! I marinaded the pork loin with this recipe overnight and cooked in the crockpot.

Wow! What a great recipe! We loved this! I made the recipe exactly as written, with a small pork loin roast.This gave me a chance to implement two swap items that I have received lately. Maple syrup, from a Northern American partner, and a great mustard from a French partner. I had excellent results. A very tasty outer glaze, and a perfectly tender and juicy inside. I am impressed. This is one of the very best ways that I have ever had a pork loin! Incredibly good. Thanks, for sharing this recipe! Made for Zaar World Tour.

Very good and sweet. I use recipe #187993 to brine the pork and this marinade on pork kabobs. Because I was making my Recipe #229276 and my DH doesn`t enjoy tequilla (go figure) I made this recipe for him. I did sneak a taste and they were delish. The only change was dijon for grain mustard. Thanks.
