Name: Boneless Pork Loin Roast with Herbed Pepper Rub
Ingredients:
Herbed Pepper Rub:
Instructions:
Comments: 5 minutes prep, 90 minutes cook.
11/2/2010 - I followed the directions on the meat package,
and roasted the meat at 325ºF for 25 min/lb. The roast weighed 2.61 lbs
so the total roasting time was about 66 minutes.
5/08/2011 - The roast weighed 2.42 lbs. I cooked it 20 min/lb at 350ºF;
after 48 min I used the meat thermometer to find the internal temperature was 180ºF.
I used the amount of spices for a 3 lb roast & cracked 2 tablespoons
peppercorns with the motor&pestle; that might have been too much pepper.
11/28/2016 - I started with a 3-pound roast. I modified the seasonings
by using 4 teaspoons of plain black pepper, just 1 teaspoon of rosemary,
a full teaspoon of garlic & herb seasoning and, of course, no salt.
The recipe gave about twice as much rub as
I needed. I put a meat thermometer in the roast at the beginning and cooked it
about 73 minutes before it reached 150ºF. I removed the roast from the oven,
but the internal temperature did not go up to 160ºF, so I put it back in
the oven again for about 10 minutes. I think the roast turned out well.
2/9/2020 - I purchased four pre-seasoned pork loin roasts. They were small: two of
18 oz and two of 22 oz. The directions were put two into a pan, 2 to 3 inches apart,
cover them with aluminum foil, and bake at 375ºF for 30 minutes. Then, remove the
foil and continue baking for 10 more minutes. At the end of the time, the internal
temperature was supposed to be 145ºF, but I found it was considerably higher.
They weren't too tough, so I guess it was okay.
