Description

When I was a kid I thought the name of this dish was “Can-Time” Pork, when it was really “Canton Pork.” Since we made it with home-canned peaches, it made perfect sense. No matter the name, it’s heavenly and happy and a great way to celebrate peach season.

Ingredients

  • 2 pounds Pork Loin Roast (or Any Cut Of Pork You Have)
  • 2 Tablespoons Vegetable Oil
  • 1 Tablespoon Butter
  • 2 cloves Garlic, Chopped
  • 3 cups Fresh Or Frozen Peaches, Sliced
  • 1 teaspoon Cayenne Pepper
  • ¼ teaspoons Vanilla
  • ¼ cups Brown Sugar
  • 1 teaspoon Cinnamon
  • Salt And Pepper

Preparation

Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Season pork on one side with salt and pepper. Heat a stainless steel or cast iron pan with vegetable oil to medium high heat. Sear the seasoned side of the meat first. While that side is searing, season the opposite side. When the meat is brown and caramelized on both sides, remove from pan and put into a shallow casserole dish. Let the pan cool slightly and turn the heat to low-medium (about 3). Melt the butter and add the garlic. Cook for one minute. Then add peaches, cayenne, vanilla, sugar, and cinnamon. Cook the sauce just to get the juices flowing out of the peaches and to pick up the yummy bits from the pan. Pour over the roast and then cover with foil. Cook for about an hour or until the roast is cooked through. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing.

I do that all of the time! In my defense, I was all of 3 years old when I first thought this but I still don’t think I figured it out until I was 6 or 7.

Sounds divine, and thanks for the laugh. I am bad about misunderstanding the words in songs and then finding out years later I was wrong :-)

I would give this recipe 10 mitts if I could!

I made this last night for my first ever dinner party. Doubled the recipe (I had a 5 lb loin) and it came out perfectly! It was so good, in fact, I had to go up to the office and print it out for five of our guests!

This is AWESOME and thanks for sharing!!!

Yum. I adapted this for pork chops cooked on the stove top as it was too hot to turn on the oven. Delicious!

WOW !!! This is my current favorite recipe. Could not be easier and really yummy. Might use a little less cayenne pepper if you don’t prefer hot food, but we like it spicy so it was just right.

Made this the other night and both my boyfriend and I LOVED it! We added a little more spice than the recipe calls for, just because I know we’re both spice people, and it was divine. The peaches were the perfect contrast to the spice. We served it with a spinach salad and mashed potatoes. Amazing…thank you!!!
