hoursTurkey Brine Blend is for more than just the holiday bird! It’s a fantastic choice for pork roast. We love how it goes to work this lean cut of protein. Turkey Brine is an excellent way to insure juicy results. Serve it up with rolls and Jay D’s Molasses Mustard for delicious sandwiches.
Ingredients
4 lb Pork Roast
Rolls and Jay D’s Molasses Mustard for serving
Instructions
- Bring 8 cups of water to a full rolling boil. Dissolve the Turkey Brine in the boiling water and turn off heat. Add in 4 cups ice. Once the brine liquid is room temp, move the liquid to a large container that will fit in to your refrigerator – a large, plastic food storage container or jumbo salad bowl works well. Submerge the pork roast in the brine. Brine for 6-8 hours.
- Preheat the oven to 400° F.
- Rinse and dry the pork roast. Rub with Herbes de Provence Extra Virgin Olive Oil and Herbes de Provence. It’s important that a salt-free blend is used for the roast since the Turkey Brine contains salt–this will help avoid over salting the roast.
- Place on a roasting pan with a rack. Roast for 30 minutes at 400° F.
- Lower the heat to 325° F and continue roasting. Check the roast every 20 minutes, using a thermometer inserted into the center of the roast. When the roast registers 145° F, remove from the oven and allow to rest for 30 minutes.
- Carve and serve.
