BEST ROAST PORK I'VE EVER EATEN
This really is the best pork roast I've ever eaten. I use fresh rosemary from my herb garden but dried will work. Even though the Marsala is optional, it's just not the same without it, in my opinion.

Tips: Master the Art of Succulent and Flavorful Pork Roasts
- Enhance flavors with herbs and spices: Transform your pork roast into a culinary masterpiece by incorporating a flavorful blend of herbs and spices. Experiment with classic options like garlic, thyme, rosemary, or paprika, or create your own unique rub using a combination of your favorites. - Sear for a golden-brown crust: Elevate the visual appeal and taste of your pork roast by searing it in a hot pan before roasting. This technique caramelizes the outer layer, creating a crispy crust that seals in the juices and adds an extra layer of flavor. - Utilize the right roasting pan: Select a roasting pan that accommodates the size of your pork roast comfortably, ensuring even cooking throughout. Consider using a Dutch oven or a roasting pan with a lid to create a moist and flavorful environment. - Monitor the internal temperature: Achieve perfectly cooked pork roast by using a meat thermometer to monitor its internal temperature. Insert the thermometer into the thickest part of the roast, ensuring it doesn't touch any bones. Aim for an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare, 155 degrees Fahrenheit for medium, or 165 degrees Fahrenheit for well-done. - Allow the roast to rest: After removing the pork roast from the oven, let it rest for a few minutes before carving. This allows the juices to redistribute evenly throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and succulent roast.Conclusion: A Culinary Journey of Pork Roast Delights
