Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- In a large saute pan over medium heat, saute the sausage until no longer pink. Remove the sausage (leave in the fat), and set aside. To the pan, add the onion, celery, and apple and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Cook until the apple is no longer crisp, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook an additional couple of minutes. Remove from the heat, stir the sausage back in and set aside.
- In a food processor, pulse the bread with the sage, rosemary, and thyme into coarse crumbs.
- Heat the butter in a medium saute pan and cook the crumbs over medium-high heat until coated with butter and lightly toasted, about 3 minutes (be careful not to burn). Mix the breadcrumbs into the sausage mixture.
- Prepare the roast as if making a jellyroll. Place the roast with the short side toward you, and fat facing down toward the counter or cutting board. Use a sharp knife to slice the roast open at about 1/2-inch from the bottom of the roast (parallel to the cutting board), being careful not to cut all the way through. Continue cutting, unrolling the roast as you work until you have a large, thin piece of meat. Place the rolled out piece of meat between 2 sheets of waxed or parchment paper, and lightly pound with meat mallet to increase the meat surface area by 10 to 20 percent. Be careful not to pound through the meat. Salt and pepper the pork and top with the filling, spreading evenly across the pork, leaving a 1-inch margin around the perimeter.
- Starting with the short side, roll up tightly jellyroll style, and secure the roast with kitchen twine.
- Heat a large saute pan over medium heat and add oil. Add the roast and brown on all sides. Place in a roasting pan fitted with a rack and add the wine in the bottom of the pan (to keep the juices from burning), and bake for 45 minutes to 1 hour, or until the internal temperature hits 145 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove the roast from the oven and allow to rest for a full 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

PORK CHOPS WITH SAVORY APPLE STUFFING
This is an easy and delicious way to serve pork chops--another of my favorite warm and hearty comfort foods. The pork chops turn out juicy and are complimented by the stuffing flavored with apples, garlic, onions and savory seasonings. In my opinion, homemade stuffing rivals any store-bought mix. The stuffing under the pork chops is moistened and flavored by the meat juices while the stuffing on the surface is crispy and buttery--my favorite part! If you desire all of your stuffing to be moist, cover the baking pan with aluminum foil while in the oven. Enjoy!

BACON-WRAPPED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH APPLE STUFFING
This small roast gets the star treatment with an apple and onion stuffing, and it's rolled up in bacon, for even more flavor. Perfect for a weeknight dinner because it bakes in about 20 minutes with a short resting time. We liked this with steamed broccoli and home fries.

Tips:
- For the best results, choose a pork sirloin roast that is at least 3 pounds in weight.
- To make the stuffing, use a variety of apples, such as Granny Smith, Honeycrisp, and Braeburn. This will give the stuffing a complex flavor.
- Be sure to cook the pork roast until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit. This will ensure that the pork is cooked through but still juicy.
- Let the pork roast rest for at least 15 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
