Pork Roast with Garlic, Mayo and Spices

Yet another pork roast – and it is spicy one. Slow cooking turns meat in this roast tender and juicy and it makes great dinner.

To save some time on preparation you can marinate meat in advance and then just put it to the oven 2-3 hours before it needs to hit the table.

Juices produced while meat was cooking make great addition when poured over the meat or its side dish of potatoes served with it.

  • 6-7 garlic cloves

  • I am confused on cooking time. The top of the page says to cook 2 hours before you eat. The directions say 3 hours for the roast, depending on size. Sounds great, I just want to get it right. Thanks

    • The cooking time will depend on the size of the piece of meat. The best choice is to go by the inner temperature while cooking (if you have a meat thermometer), it should be somewhere in between 150-160F.
