Rosemary Pork Roast

Submitted by MsPia

"From Food & Wine 1992. It was part of a Christmas menu buffet style. After taking the roast from the pan, Judy used to add 1 can of beef broth to it mixing it well with the pan juices and reducing it just a little. Then serve the pork thinly sliced over a split flaky biscuits and drip with the juice. Fantastic!!!!"

I used 2 pounds of pork and cut the sauce to 1/3. It was good but didn't make me swoon (it is Valentine's Day after all :)). I definitely want to make this again and use more sauce. Thanks for sharing. Made for Best 0f 2013 tag.

WOW! A Keeper! Serving only 2 people, I cooked a 1-lb. pork tenderloin, which still took the same amount of time (although I believe in using an instant-read meat thermometer to stay on top of things). DH made me promise that I would cook the other pork tenderloin (in our purchase) the very same way. I kept the amounts of the rest of the ingredients the same as called for in the recipe.
