Aunt Sally's Pork Roast

I don’t want you all to think that I will only be sharing recipes from food network. Now I must admit that I am a huge fan of the shows on there, but there are a number of family recipes that I cherish and would love to share with everyone.

One of those recipes is Aunt Sally’s pork roast. I love this dish. Making it evokes memories of Family Sunday dinners and cool weather. It is what I consider to be one of my comfort foods because I have so many fond memories tied to it, like my father and grandfather arguing over who gets the last piece. Any how, I invite you to try this recipe. I hope that you and your family enjoy it as much as me and mine.

1 5 pound pork roast
2 Peeled garlic cloves
1 yellow onion
1 green pepper
½ cup of apple cider vinegar
1 teaspoon of Salt
1 teaspoon of Pepper
1 teaspoon of Garlic Powder

Pre-heat your oven to 350 degrees. Once you have washed your roast, place it in a roasting pan. With a small knife make small holes on the top and sides of the meat. Take the garlic cloves and cut them into thin strips. Insert the garlic into the holes in the roast. Slice your onion and green pepper and place at the bottom of your roasting pan. Pour the vinegar on your roast allowing it to seep into the garlic filled slices. Finally mix your salt, pepper and garlic powder together to create a rub. Apply this mixture on the top and sites of your roast. Allow your roast to bake for 1 hour and 45 minutes.

Note: The vinegar adds a bite to this dish. If this is not something you enjoy, you may want to use it more conservatively.

Enjoy!
