Honey-Baked Pork Roast

A honey-baked pork roast is juicy and full of flavor. Its perfect for BBQs. As the pork bakes, the sweet and savory marinade turns into a glaze that makes your mouth water.

Ingredients:

• 1 boneless pork roast approximately 3 lbs
• 1/2 cup honey
• 1/4 cup soy sauce
• 2 cloves garlic, minced
• 1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
• 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
• 1/2 teaspoon paprika
• 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
• 1 tablespoon olive oil

Instructions:

Preheat your oven to 350F 175C

In a small bowl, mix together honey, soy sauce, minced garlic, Dijon mustard, black pepper, paprika, cayenne pepper, and olive oil to create the marinade

Place the pork roast in a large resealable plastic bag and pour half of the marinade over the meat

Seal the bag and refrigerate for at least 2 hours or overnight for best results

Remove the pork from the refrigerator and let it come to room temperature for about 30 minutes

Place the marinated pork roast in a roasting pan, reserving the marinade for basting

Bake in the preheated oven for 30 minutes, then baste with the reserved marinade

Continue baking, basting every 15 minutes, until the internal temperature reaches 145F 63C, or until the pork is cooked to your liking

Once done, let the pork rest for 10 minutes before slicing

Serve the honey-baked pork roast slices with any remaining sauce from the roasting pan
