Best Tips
Your best friend while making this pork loin recipe is going to be the thermometer to make sure that the meat is not raw and not overcooked. We want it to be “just right” as Goldilocks would say, which in this case is 145 degrees.
Do not skip the resting step to assure that your roasted pork loin will continue to absorb the juices and stay more tender.
Make sure to have a steady cutting board so that you won’t get cut slicing the meat with of your cutting board sliding around on the counter. The best thing to get in the habit of doing is anchor your board down better by placing a damp, flat towel under it.
Use a sharp knife. This will ensure you get the best, straight slices by making sure that you are cutting the roast with a sharp knife.
Buy a large pork loin and cut it into boneless pork chops. It will save a lot of money doing it yourself.
Making Oven Baked Pork Roast Ahead of Time
When you are pressed for time for dinner, preparing the pork loin in advance will help.
Just season the meat and marinate at this point if you are going to do that, and then wrap it up and place it in the refrigerator, for an hour or even overnight.
Then when you are ready to cook it, just simply follow the directions for preparing to bake.
Do You Cook a Pork Loin Fat Side Up or Down?
Pork loin roast and any other meat with fat on one side should always be cooked with the fat side up.
In this manner, the fat drips over the meat to keep it tender and flavorful while also achieving the desired oven-crisp top that we all enjoy eating.
