Roasted Pork Loin

Tonight we are having a roast that has been marinating in one of our flavored vinegars.

Garlic-Oregano Pork Loin

1 cup garlic-oregano vinegar
1/2 cup olive oil
2 tablespoons cumin
salt and pepper
2 pound pork loin

Mix vinegar, oil, cumin, salt and pepper in a ziplock bag. Place roast in the bag and allow to marinade for 12 hours, making sure to flip occasionally. Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Place pork in a roasting pan (fat side up) and pour remaining marinade over it. Put the roast in the oven. Cook about 40-60 minutes or until the meat registers 150 degrees on a meat thermometer. Roasts vary in sizes and in thickness, consequently the cooking times will vary depending on the shape of your roast. The meat thermometer is the best way to judge the right amount of cooking time. Remove the roast from the oven and set on a cutting board. Let it rest for 5 minutes before slices. This is allow the juices to stay within the roast. Enjoy!
