Savory Pork Roast

Some may think that pork roast is reserved for Sunday dinners. There’s a misconception on how long it takes to make this savory pork roast. There is minimal involvement in the baking so it’s the perfect dish to make on those distant learning days when you want something a little more homecooked. So let’s break you out of that dinner time rut!

To make this savory pork roast you will need the following –

2 medium Onions, chopped
1 bag Baby Carrots
1 Celery Rib, chopped
4 tbsp Flour
1 Bay Leaf, crushed
1/2 tsp Dried Thyme
1 1/4 tsp Salt
1 1/4 tsp Pepper
3 to 4 lb Boneless Pork Loin Roast
1/3 C Brown Sugar

This recipe does take a while to cook, a little under 2 hours, but it really is easy. It’s pretty much like a slow cooker recipe where you place it all in and forget about it.

First, take your roasting pan out and preheat the oven to 325F.

Next, place your chopped onions, baby carrot, and celery in the bottom of the roaster. Try to spread them out as much as you can.

In a small bowl, combine 2 tbsp of flour, crushed bay leaf, thyme, 1 tsp of salt, and 1 tsp of pepper. Stir until it’s well mixed.

Rub the mix all over the pork loin roast.

Place the roast on top of the vegetables in the roasting pan with the fatty side of the roast up.

Add 2 cups of water to the roasting pan. Carefully pour the water in so you do not wash off the seasoning on the pork loin.

Place in the oven, uncovered, for 1 1/2 hours.

Pull the roast out and sprinkle the brown sugar over the roast. Place back in oven and roast another 15-20 minutes. Be sure to check the temp before you pull it out, you want the internal temperature to be 140F.  If it’s not, bake it a little longer.

Place the roast on a platter and tent with tinfoil. Let it sit for about 15 minutes before you slice into it.

You can make gravy, it’s optional. To do that, pour the drippings from the roasting pan into a small saucepan. Add water to bring it up to 1 1/2 c of liquid. Whisk in the remaining flour while bringing the sauce to a boil over medium to high heat. Boil for about 2 minutes or until thickened.
