CHEF JOHN'S GARLIC-STUDDED ROAST PORK
Garlic-studded, herb-rubbed pork shoulder is such a great cut of meat. I cooked it in a pan without liquid, without covering it, and without cooking it at a really low temperature. I didn't want it to be falling apart and wet; I wanted it to be solid, chewy and crusty.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
- Cut about 6 holes per side into pork roast with a sharp knife and insert garlic clove halves into the holes. Rub roast with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Season all sides of roast with kosher salt and a generous amount of black pepper, Italian seasoning, rosemary, and cayenne pepper. Place into a roasting pan.
- Roast in the preheated oven for 3 hours. Turn off the oven with roast inside and leave it to rest for 1 hour. Refrigerate meat overnight.
- Cut cold pork into 1/2-inch-thick slices. If any garlic appears on the cut surface of the meat, pick it out so it doesn't burn. Season slices with salt.
- Heat 1 tablespoon olive oil in a heavy skillet over medium-low heat and sear pork slices in the hot oil until browned and crusty, about 10 minutes per side.
- Toss lettuce with tomatoes in a bowl and drizzle with red wine vinegar; toss again to coat.
- Heat beans in a saucepan over low heat. Layer about 1/3 cup white beans into a large, shallow soup plate; top beans with a slice of pork shoulder and about 1/4 cup lettuce mixture.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 400 degrees F.
- Coat the pork with olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper. Arrange the parsley and sage leaves along the top of the roast.

Steps:
- Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F.
- Lay the bacon onto a rimmed baking sheet lined with a baking rack. Bake until the bacon has rendered some of its fat but is still completely flexible and hasn't begun to brown, about 15 minutes. Remove from the oven and let cool 5 minutes. Raise the oven temperature to 450 degrees F.
- Generously sprinkle the tenderloin with salt and black pepper.
- In a small bowl, stir together the mustard, brown sugar, garlic powder and cayenne. Coat the tenderloin all over with the mixture.
- Starting at one end, wrap the bacon strips around the tenderloin, overlapping them slightly so they are shingled.
- Place the tenderloin on the baking rack and roast until 130 degrees F at the thickest point, about 17 minutes. Let rest 5 minutes, then transfer to a cutting board using a long offset spatula and tongs. Slice into 1-inch-thick rounds and serve.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 375 degrees.
- If pork loin is thick, cut it in half vertically so that there are 2 long, but thinner pieces of meat.
- With a knife, poke small but deep holes all throughout the meat
- Insert sliced garlic pieces into these holes.
- Season meat with salt and pepper.
- Wrap bacon slices all around the meat, making sure that no part of the loin is exposed. Bacon slices should be wrapped closely together. For two pieces of roast, it should take about a pack of bacon.
- Finely chop fresh thyme and sprinkle over meat.
- Sprinkle savory over roast.
- Take a large pan and pour in oil and wine, mixing them together.
- Place roast in pan and cover with aluminum foil (do not poke holes).
- Bake the covered roast for 2 1/2 hours, occasionally lifting cover to check liquid levels. Add water to pan as wine and oil diminishes.
- After 2 1/2 hours, remove aluminum foil from pan and continue to cook roast for an additional 30 minutes. This will cause the bacon to become crispy. Add a little wine or water during the last 30 minutes. The end result will be a crunchy outside, with a tender, juicy inside.
- Slice and serve with mashed potatoes, using the juices from the pan as a gravy.
GARLIC-STUFFED PORK ROAST WITH GLAZE
For even more flavor after seasoning the roast cover and refrigerate overnight -- for best results use a meat thermometor for this, stuff the roast with as many cloves as desired, I say the more the better! --- NOTE if you prefer lots of glaze, use 1 cup sugar, 2 tablespoons cornstarch, 1/2 cup vinegar, 1/2 cup water and 1/4 cup soy sauce, cook as directed.

Tips:
- To ensure the pork roast is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, and 165°F (74°C) for well-done.
- For a crispy bacon crust, cook the pork roast in a hot oven (400°F or 200°C) for the first 30 minutes. Then, reduce the heat to 325°F (165°C) to finish cooking.
- If the bacon starts to burn, cover the pork roast with a sheet of aluminum foil.
- Let the pork roast rest for at least 15 minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
- Serve the pork roast with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
