DAD'S BASIC MOIST PORK ROAST



Dad's Basic Moist Pork Roast image

This is the best and most basic way to ensure a juicy, perfectly-cooked pork roast every time. This recipe really requires a good thermometer -- either a $10 instant-read type or, even better, the type that pierces the meat and stays in place while connected to an outside-the-oven monitor. If you can swing that, then try your favorite marinade or rub on this recipe. Use your imagination on the rubs and marinades, but ensure you bring your roast directly from the fridge to the roasting pan -- Dad's recipe works best that way.

SIMPLY SAVORY PORK LOIN



Simply Savory Pork Loin image

This is a simple roast, seasoned with savory. I brown and bake this in my cast iron dutch oven. It makes great gravy and very tasty sandwiches. I want to thank SnoopyCooks for her suggestion to thicken the gravy with cornstarch, as I forgot that step.

Provided by Deely

Categories     Pork

Time 1h10m

Yield 4-6 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 10

2 lbs boneless pork loin roast
1/2 teaspoon savory
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon black pepper (coarsely cracked)
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1/2 teaspoon Old Bay Seasoning
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 tablespoon olive oil
1 tablespoon bacon grease
1 1/4 cups chicken broth

Steps:

  • Combine all spices and rub into pork.
  • Brown pork in oil and bacon grease.
  • Add water and chicken broth, scraping up all the brown bits.
  • Cover tightly with foil and a lid.
  • Bake at 325* for 45 minute to 1 hour or until temperature reaches 150*.

Tips:

  • Use a pork shoulder or butt roast for the best results; these cuts are well-marbled and will become tender and flavorful when cooked slowly.
  • Sear the pork roast before braising it; this will help to develop a rich, caramelized crust and lock in the juices.
  • Use a variety of aromatics and spices in the braising liquid; this will add depth of flavor to the pork roast. Some good options include garlic, onion, carrots, celery, thyme, rosemary, and bay leaves.
  • Braise the pork roast for at least 2 hours, or until it is fall-apart tender. The longer you braise it, the more tender it will be.
  • Serve the pork roast with a variety of sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple green salad.

Conclusion:

This simple savory pork roast is a delicious and easy-to-make meal that is perfect for a weeknight dinner or a special occasion.
