Milk-Braised Pork

Milk-Braised Pork
Serves 4

2.5lbs pork loin roast, whole
2 cloves garlic
~3 cups Whole Milk
Thyme
Salt and Pepper

Brown pork well in a dutch oven, and remove.
Add the garlic and thyme for 10 seconds, and deglaze with 2 cups of the
milk. Let simmer 20 minutes.
Add the pork and more milk to get to 2/3 up the meat, and braise until
thermometer reads 140F.
Remove and let rest. Cook down the milk (add slurry or beurre maniere if
needed) to a sauce - nut brown if possible. Blend the sauce to make it
uniform.
Served with roasted brussels sprouts and potatoes.
