Center Cut Pork Loin
Boneless Pork Roast

There are many ways of cooking boneless pork loin,
This is my recipe for browning it on the stovetop
and then tranfering it into the oven to finish.


Ingredients:
1 boneless Pork Loin
Garlic to taste
salt and black pepper to taste

Directions:
An hour before cooking remove the roast from
the refrigerator to bring to room temperature.
Heat oven to 300 degrees F.,
adjust the oven rack to middle position.
Meanwhile heat a skillet over medium high
heat with 1 tablespoon of vegetable oil.
Sprinkle the roast evenly with salt and pepper
and any of your favorite seasonings or spices.
When skillet is smoking about 4-5 minutes add the roast,
fat side up if a single loin.
Brown the roast on all sides
about 2 minutes per side, fat side last,
lower temperature if the roast is burning.
Transfer roast to roasting pan on
a rack set inside the pan.
Cook until the internal temperature
reaches 145-150 degrees using an
instant read thermometer inserted
into the center of the roast.
Approximately 25-30 minutes per pound
should register about 145-150 degrees.
Remove roast from the oven,
transfer to a cutting board
and tent loosely with foil 15-20 minutes.
The internal temperature will rise
about 5-10 degrees while resting
to a temperature of 155-160 degres F..
For maximum tenderness
do not cook past this temperature.
