This will use up a lot of rosemary.....

Split a pork loin most of the way lengthwise and open it up. Rub with
a garlic clove, salt and pepper, and drizzle on a bit of olive oil.
Lay several sprigs of rosemary over the surface and close it back up.
Rub the outside with garlic, salt and pepper, lightly drizzle with
more olive oil. Place sprigs of rosemary completely around the
outside and tie it closed. Grill it slowly over indirect heat,
remove the strings and rosemary, slice and serve.
