Wendell's Herbed Pork Roast


Wendell found the recipe for this pork roast here. Do you see the cut-off portion in the lower left corner? That's the bit I ate and went "OMG, so ono!" and ran to get my camera.

INGREDIENTS

  • 3 garlic cloves, minced
  • 3 tablespoons extra-virgin olive oil
  • 1 tablespoon chopped thyme
  • 1 tablespoon chopped rosemary leaves
  • One 4-pound pork rib roast cut from the loin end, chine bone removed
  • Salt and freshly ground pepper

  • INSTRUCTIONS
  1. In a small bowl, blend the garlic with the olive oil, thyme and rosemary. Rub the herb paste all over the pork roast and let stand at room temperature for 2 hours or refrigerate overnight. 
  2. Preheat the oven to 500°. Set the pork in a small roasting pan and season with salt and pepper. Roast the pork for 15 minutes, then reduce the oven temperature to 325°. Continue roasting the pork for 40 minutes longer, or until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the meat registers 155°. Transfer the pork to a carving board and let stand for about 10 minutes. Cut between the ribs, transfer the chops to plates and serve.

I'm not too much of a meat eater, Susan. With me it's the carbs.
