| Step | Description |
|---|---|
| 1 | Start by preheating your oven to 325Β°F (160Β°C). |
| 2 | Prepare the Roast: Rub the loin of pork roast generously with salt and pepper on all sides. |
| 3 | Add Flavor: Sprinkle fresh rosemary over the roast, pressing it gently into the meat to ensure it sticks. |
| 4 | Brown the Roast: In a heavy skillet (oven-proof), heat oil over medium-high heat. Once hot, add the pork roast and sear it until it’s golden brown on all sides, creating a flavorful crust. |
| 5 | Add Liquid: Pour water into the skillet, around the roast. This will help keep the meat moist and tender during the cooking process. |
| 6 | Cover and Bake: Cover the skillet tightly with foil, ensuring it’s sealed well to trap the moisture inside. Place the skillet in the preheated oven and bake for 4-5 hours, or until the pork is tender and easily pulls apart with a fork. |
| 7 | Serve and Enjoy: Once done, remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for a few minutes before slicing. Serve hot with your favorite sides and enjoy the tender, flavorful goodness of this succulent pork roast! |
Notes:
- For added convenience, consider using a slow cooker instead of the oven. Simply follow the same steps, browning the roast in a skillet before transferring it to the slow cooker. Cook on low for 6-8 hours or on high for 4-5 hours until the meat is tender.
- Feel free to customize the seasoning according to your taste preferences. You can add garlic, thyme, or other herbs to enhance the flavor profile of the dish.
- Leftovers can be stored in an airtight container in the refrigerator for up to 3-4 days or frozen for longer-term storage. Simply reheat before serving for a quick and satisfying meal.
