Steps:
- For the sauce: In a heavy medium saucepan, combine the first 6 ingredients. Boil over medium-high heat until reduced by half, about 30 minutes. Discard the herb sprigs and cinnamon sticks (some of the rosemary leaves will remain in the port mixture). Transfer the port mixture to a blender and puree until smooth. Blend in the butter. Season the sauce, to taste, with salt and pepper. (The sauce can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and refrigerate. Rewarm over medium heat before using.)
- For the pork: Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F.
- Stir the oil, rosemary, 1 tablespoon salt and 1 1/2 teaspoons pepper in a small bowl to blend. Place the pork loin in a heavy roasting pan. Spread the oil mixture over the pork to coat completely. Roast until an instant read meat thermometer inserted into the center of the pork registers 145 degrees F, turning the pork every 15 minutes to ensure even browning, about 45 minutes total.
- Transfer the pork to a cutting board and tent with foil to keep warm. Let the pork rest 15 minutes. Meanwhile, stir the chicken broth into the roasting pan. Place the pan over medium heat, and scrape the bottom of the pan to remove any browned bits. Bring the pan juices to a simmer. Season with salt and pepper, to taste.
- Using a large sharp knife, cut the pork crosswise into 1/4-inch-thick slices. Arrange the pork slices on plates. Spoon the jus over. Drizzle the warm fig sauce around and serve immediately.
GRILLED RACK OF LAMB WITH A PORT WINE FIG SAUCE
This was a recipe I got from a fellow chef at a food show many years ago. And I admit, it has evolved quite a bit over the years, but still has the same flavor. I love to use fresh figs and rosemary which to me are the key. Most Whole Foods or a gourmet market usually have fresh figs. You can use dried figs, but the fresh really take it over the top. Now I have a Sams Club by me, so anyone else who does ... check out their rack of lamb. I get 2 racks 9 each monthly for a very reasonable price, half the butcher or grocery store. This makes having a elegant dinner for friends very affordable.

Steps:
- Marinade -- Mix all the ingredients and rub over the lamb well. Put in 1 or 2 large baggies and seal and just let marinade over night. 24 hours plus is fine for this.
- Fig Sauce -- Take 1/2 of the fresh figs and cut them up in quarters. In a small sauce pan on medium heat add the olive oil and then add the shallots, garlic, rosemary and figs. Cook five minutes until the figs are soft. Add the port wine and chicken broth. Simmer until reduced by about half on low/medium heat. About 10 minutes, the sauce with thicken on it's own.
- Lamb -- I like to grill the lamb until nice and brown with good crusting on each side, about 5 minutes per side and then flip. Then I move to indirect heat to finish cooking. They don't take long. Another 5 minutes on the indirect heat and they should be done. Make sure you have a meat thermometer which is very important when cooking this. I like to remove my lamb at about 120 degrees and cover with foil. It will come up to 125 which is medium rare. You can remove it a bit earlier if you like it more rare. 125 seems to work perfect for me each time. Remove and cover with foil to let set 10-15 minutes before carving.
- Sauce -- Add the fresh figs to the reduced sauce to heat up, the butter and a dash of the balsamic vinegar.
- Serve and Enjoy -- I like to serve 2-3 chops per plate and I love to serve this over a mix of mashed parsnips and potatoes or even some roasted spuds. Then drizzle the fig sauce over the lamb and some on the potatoes.
- Fresh sauteed kale is wonderful with this or some roasted brussels sprouts with a walnut butter. (Walnut butter -- just fine grind walnuts and mix with butter, melt and serve over green beans roasted brussels sprouts, and grilled cabbage or cauliflower). Very easy and very flavorful.

AMAZING SIMPLE RACK OF LAMB WITH CABERNET SAUCE
This is a recipe that I have been working on/perfecting for some time. Inspired by the Rack of Lamb at Outback. I found a seasoning recipe online a few years ago that was similar to mine. The most laborious part is mixing the seasonings. The seasoning is incredible, great for any meat really. The Cabernet sauce is a variation the outback one and is great too. I served this recently with mashed red potatoes. Sometimes I'll do 1 teaspoon kosher salt and 1/2 teaspoon granulated salt, to make the saltiness more uniform.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 425.
- Mix together seasoning ingredients in a bowl.
- Heat Olive Oil in large skillet to medium.
- If you like you can trim some fat from the racks. You also can slice them in half for smaller racks.(I usually do whole 8 bone racks) Sprinkle seasoning on each rack.
- Sear each rack on all sides until browned(2-4 minutes tops) Put racks into roasting pan and bake for 15 minutes to 130 degrees (for medium).Or 20 mins for a light pink med well. When lamb is done take it out of the oven and cover pan with foil and let lamb sit for 10 minutes.
- While lamb is cooking, make cabernet sauce by melting butter in the searing skillet ( Do NOT wash out skillet -- you want the cooked bits of lamb or "fond" in there for flavor ). When melted add flour and cook for a minute or so. Stir in other ingriedents starting with the Wine and Beef Broth, then simmer for a bit to reduce the liquid. You can add a bit of cornstarch if you want it thicker(My wife likes it to be more like gravy).
- When everything is ready you can cut the racks into 2 bone chops or leave it whole depending on your presention. Serve with Cab sauce on the side. The Cab Sauce is also great on mashed pototoes. Enjoy!
