Company Pork Roast

The title of this recipe says it all! This is without a doubt and 5 star Company Worthy recipe. Not only does this roast possess excellent flavor, it is also succulent to the point that your knife simply glides though the meat. I made this recipe exactly as directed and we enjoyed it so very much. Thanks so much, Garnet for a real keeper!

Wonderful, simply wonderful!! This is very tasty and very tender. It isn't "fall apart" tender, which I dislike. Rather it is "cut with a fork" tender and very juicy! Basting it really makes a difference - I basted every 15 minuites. I served this with oven roasted potatoes and my green bean salad. This is definitely company worthy! Tasty and VERY EASY to prepare! The one thing I wasn't clear on was if it called for white wine or red wine vinegar - I used white wine and it turned out great! Thanks for posting this, its a definite keeper in my books.

This is one of those recipes that I love to prepare, easy and tastes delicious. The piece of pork I used was just over 1 kg. and it cooked in 2 hours. I also basted regularly with the end result a real winner. Thanks for posting.

This was a very nice Pork Roast. I made it with mashed potatoes, roasted root veggies and a spinach salad. It was a very nice Sunday supper, the only complaint I got was from the kids, because there was no gravy for the mashed potatoes. I did add 1/4 cup of real maple sugar to the marinade (a family favourite passed down from my Granny!) But, besides that, I didn't make any changes to the recipe. I will make this again. Oh, by the way, the left-overs were awsome as well!!

This was a wonderful change from our usual pork roast! My DH absolutely loved the sweet taste, and especially the parts of the glaze that carmelized during the browning time. I didn't have red OR white wine vinegar on hand and used cider vinegar instead this first time. VERY good, one I'll fix again and for company. Thanks Garnet!!

I just got done supper and had to come right here to review this. Wow! This was absolutely the best pork loin roast I have ever made. I had a 3lb roast but I still doubled the sauce ingredients. I also added about 1/4 tsp of Emeril Essence and about 1/2 Tsp of Cumin for some smokey flavor. I basted it about every 1/2 hr and uncovered it the last 45 min with also turning the temp up to 350. Before coating the meat with the sauce to put it in the oven I poked holes throughout it so that the sauce could run down into it. It was very tender and moist. I served it with my yam slices sauted with butter, brown sugar, salt and pepper and also with extra fine green beans. Can't wait to have the leftovers for lunch tomorrow. Garnet, thanks for a winner. Won't do my pork roasts any other way.

I used the juice from a jar of sauerkraut instead of the vinegar (try it - you'll LOVE this idea). I also used an enormous amount of honey (8 or 10 tablespoons): I just poured it over the top of the roast. The result was extraordinary. Served with baked red potatoes, sauteed kale, and the rest of the sauerkraut. The kids and adults LOVED it and ask for it all the time. This recipe is really worthy of serving on any special day!

Excellent flavor!!! Made double the sauce and let marinate overnight. Then cook 6 hours in the crockpot. It browned nicely and was very moist. Will be making this recipe again. Thanks for sharing Garnet.

This was excellent! After reading some of the reviews, I marinated my roast in the sauce (using a zip-lock bag) for about 6 hour in the refrigerator. I made a few deep slits in the roast as well. The results were wonderful with plenty of flavor throughout the pork. It was very tender and juicy. I used a 2 lb. roast and cooked it about 1h 45min. The only change I will make next time is to double the amount of delicious sauce. Merci!

I had a 3lb. roast and after reading the other reviews decided to double the other ingredients. Hubby saw me and said (just like someone else's hubby did), why don't we inject some of this into it? Well we did. We followed the other directions, except I used a glass baking dish and reduced the temp 25degrees. After it rested, we sliced it and poured some of the extra sauce over the slices. It was delicious. Moist, juicy and very flavorful. I would describe it as tasting similar to the inside of a Chinese steamed dumpling, only as a nice thick slab of meat. Will definitely make this again. Thanks for the great recipe!

Very tasty. I made it just the way it was. The meat was tender and juicy.

I have made this about 4 times since I came across the recipe in September. My whole family loves it (which includes 2 preschoolers that are picky)! My company loved it. This is one recipe that will remain in my cook book. The leftover sauce is wonderful on top of the pork. It is so very easy to make too. The ingredients seemed to be the ones that I had on my shelf (which I REALLY appreciate).

I am one of those selfish people who always look at the reviews, but never leave one. On this occasion I feel the need to let you all know that this is the tasiest pork I have ever eaten. We're not big pork fans in our house but I managed to pick up a pork leg roast for a bargain price and needed some inspiration regarding what to do with it. I marinaded the leg in the sauce for 24 hours prior to roasting and basted regularly during cooking. I used cider vinegar for the vinegar. Having it again this week, but this time will make double quantity of the sauce. Thanks for posting Garnet!

I made this for dinner tonight for my husband, who isn't really a pork fan, and he raved about it! It was very tasty and so juicy. Next time I will double the sauce and, as someone suggested, poke holes in the roast to get the flavor down into it. The only problem I had was I had a 2 lb roast and expected it to cook in about an hour and a half. After that amount of time, I had to turn my oven up to 350F for an additional 45 minutes before it was cooked through. I'm sure that was my error, not the recipe's. Thanks, Garnet, for a recipe to be used often!

Made this tonight and it was very good! 2 of my 3 little boys liked it, so did my extremely picky husband and I did too! I did mess up and overcook it, my roast was only 2lbs but yet I still cooked it over 2hrs...oops! So it was dried out but actually not all that bad when we used the leftover juices as a sauce. I will make again...just without cooking so long :) I did still double the sauce even though my roast was much smaller

This was ok a little too sweet and overpowered the pork flavor.

It dried out a lot. I'm going to use the leftovers in fried rice.
