👨‍🍳 Instructions:

Preheat Oven or Grill:

Oven: 375°F (190°C)

Prepare the Pork:

Butterfly the pork loin and lay it flat.

Season generously on the inside with salt, pepper, garlic powder, cumin, and paprika.

Add the Filling:

Spread the chopped green chiles evenly over the meat.

Sprinkle cheese and oregano on top.

Roll and Wrap:

Roll the loin up tightly like a jelly roll.

Wrap the entire roll with bacon strips, overlapping slightly.

Secure:

Use toothpicks or kitchen twine to hold it all together.

Cook:

Oven: Place in a baking dish or sheet. Bake for 50–60 minutes, or until internal temp reaches 145°F (63°C). Broil the last few minutes to crisp up the bacon.

Grill: Grill over indirect heat for about 1 hour. Finish over direct heat to crisp the bacon.
