• Salt and pepper
• Olive oil
• Oven

• Meat thermometer

How to Cook a Boneless Pork Roast

1. Place oven rack in middle and preheat oven to 450 degrees F. It is important to have the rack in the middle so the roast will cook evenly.
2. Leave the layer of fat on one side of the boneless pork roast alone. This fat will keep the meat moist, which is just what you want! Place the meat fat layer up. Doing this will allow the grease to drip down over the meat as it cooks. This will ensure the boneless pork roast stays tender and does not dry out.
3. Create a rub with spices, olive oil and a little salt and pepper. Rub the oil on the roast on both sides, giving it a good coating.
4. Place the pork roast in a roasting pan. Make sure you place the fat side up. If you don't have a roasting pan then you may place the roast on some rolled up tin foil to make a rack. Now place the pork roast in a preheated oven at 450 degrees F. Leave the roast at 450 degrees F. for 10 minutes.
5. Turn the oven down to 250 degrees F. Now, cook from 45 minutes to 80 minutes depending on the size of your roast. When the meat thermometer reads 150 degrees F, you know the roast is done. Cover the roast with aluminum foil and set it on the counter to cool for 15 minutes. Then, slice and serve!
