What's For Dinner? Italian Pork Roast - with Pictures!

I posted this recipe last year without pictures so I am reposting it now since I remembered to take a couple of pictures this time.

This is a very yummy roast that is fairly simple to make and doesn't take much time.  I highly suggest you give it a try very soon.
2 1/2 to 3 pound Pork Roast
2 tbsp Rosemary - I prefer fresh but dry works as well
4 garlic cloves
1 tsp salt
1 tsp pepper
2 tbsp butter
1small onion
1/4 cup olive oil

Heat oven to 350.

Finely chop rosemary and garlic together.

Make 8 to 10 deep cuts in the roast - about 2 inches apart

Insert small amounts of garlic and rosemary mix in the cuts

Sprinkle with salt and pepper



Melt butter in shallow roasting pan


Place the onion slices on the melted butter

Put pork in pan and drizzle with oil

Roast uncovered 50 to 60 minutes until the internal temp is 155 degrees. If the roast has a bone in it, plan an additional 30 to 45 minutes.


Remove from oven and tent with foil. Let stand for 15 to 20 minutes until the internal temp is 160 degrees.

 

Doesn't that look fantastic?

YUM! Enjoy!!
