Pork loin is a wonderful cut of meat for the budget cook. Large pork loins lend themselves to making lots of tender meat at once to feed a family for a few days, or to cook and freeze for later meals. When it's on sale, it's an even better buy. And it's regularly on sale at most grocery stores because it's a less well-known cut of meat compared to pork chops or pork tenderloin.

It's comforting and crowd-pleasing, with a hint of mouth-warming spice.
