Ingredients

5 pounds pork roast, trimmed
3 cloves garlic, sliced
1 teaspoon salt
½ tablespoon ground black pepper
3 bay leaves
½ cup cider vinegar
1 teaspoon dried thyme

Directions

Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
Pierce top of roast with a small knife. Force garlic slices into the cuts. Sprinkle roast with salt and pepper.
Place bay leaves in the bottom of a roasting pan. Set roast, fat-side up, on top of bay leaves. Mix cider vinegar and thyme in a small bowl; pour over top of roast.
Bake in the preheated oven until an internal temperature of 145 degrees F (63 degrees C) is reached, about 3 hours. Using a baster or spoon, baste drippings over roast frequently while it cooks.
Let roast rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
