Instructions:
-
Preparation:
- Preheat your oven to 325°F (165°C).
- Take the boneless pork roast and using a pointed knife, make slits around it.
-
-
Infuse with Garlic:
- Slice the garlic cloves thinly.
- Insert the garlic slices into the slits made in the pork roast.
-
Seasoning:
- Rub the entire surface of the roast with salt and pepper, ensuring it’s evenly distributed.
-
Roasting:
- Place the seasoned pork roast in a roasting pan, ensuring it fits comfortably.
- Put the roasting pan in the preheated oven.
-
Slow Roasting:
- Let the pork roast cook at 325°F (165°C) for approximately 3 hours, or until it reaches an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium, measured with a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the roast without touching the bone.
-
Resting:
- Once cooked, remove the roast from the oven and let it stand for a few minutes. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, ensuring it stays moist and flavorful.
-
Preparing the Sauce:
- While the roast is resting, transfer the roasting pan to a stovetop burner.
- Set the burner to high heat.
- Skim off any excess fat from the pan drippings.
-
Deglazing:
- Add water and cooking wine to the pan drippings.
- Stir well to incorporate any browned bits from the bottom of the pan into the liquid.
- Let the mixture simmer until it reduces by half, intensifying the flavors.
-
Serving:
- Slice the rested pork roast into thin slices.
- Serve the slices of pork roast drizzled with the flavorful pan sauce.
