The way I cook a Pork Loin is to rub it down with a top secret rub and let it sit for a few hours. (I'll normally rub one out in the morning so it's ready when I'm back from work). When I get home from work I brown all sides in the skillet, pour water in the skillet, cover the skillet with foil and cook on 350 for about 35 minutes. After removing the pork I'll add some corn starch and make a really tasty gravy to go with mashed potatoes or rice.

Anyways, it is a very simple and easy to make dish and is surprisingly good. I'm wondering what other meats I might be able to try this technique with, and if any of you have any recipes for interesting gravies as well.

You're braising the pork loin, which I do all the time in my dutch oven and which you can do with tons of different meats. Replace the water in your skillet with white wine or a dry cider and you've got yourself an even better gravy. Add in carrots, onions, and cubed potatoes to your skillet/dutch oven and you've got a nice one-pot meal.

I'm curious as to why you don't just use a lid. You're 'top secret rub' can GFItself.

Is it tender when done? 35 minutes seems like a short amount of time to cook it to its proper tenderness

We share recipes here. Nothing is top secret. What's the rub recipe?
