Fresh herb pork cap/spinalis+loin(?) and Smashed Baby Potatoes

[InstinCure]

Pork loin was $1.40 yesterday and today, small 8.25lb/$11.55 will make a bunch of meals. I like brining tenderloins (or sized pieces) for a quick meal I can cook anywhere and with anything.

I'm used to bigger ones with more of everything attached.

Fresh lemon thyme, marjoram, rosemary, oregano mostly. A tiny bit of lavender and tarragon. Salt, pepper, 1/8tsp prague #1. Shouldve thrown garlic in the skillet at the end.

Seared in cast iron, transfered to thin baking dish and went into a 400* oven on "convection roast"

Potatoes were fully boiled, smashed a little, salted , then threw some butter and a rosemary branch and potatoes into the cast iron and into the oven. Sorry for no pics other than my plate.

Satisfactory, for sure

Sure was man, thanks!!

I'll miss growing peppers, tomatoes, etc. til I start again someday; herbs are so very low maintenance.

Looks like a very nice meal, I am all about some potatoes with my meal.

Looks good! Can't beat a meat and potatoes meal!

Only if you add some gravy Ryan , But I would eat that meal either way.

Maybe a little white wine lemon butter gravy with the cast iron+potato pan. Horseradish sounds good too. Maybe next time..
