Yield:
1 pork loin roast

Ingredients

  • ½ cup soy sauce

  • ½ cup dry sherry

  • 2 tablespoons mustard powder

  • 2 teaspoons dried thyme leaves

  • 2 cloves garlic, minced

  • 1 teaspoon ground ginger

  • 1 (4.5 pound) boneless pork loin roast - trimmed, rolled, and tied

  • 1 (10 ounce) jar apricot preserves

  • 2 tablespoons dry sherry

  • 1 teaspoon soy sauce

Directions

  1. Stir 1/2 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup sherry, mustard powder, thyme, garlic, and ginger together in a large, shallow bowl. Place pork roast into marinade and cover; refrigerate at least 4 hours or overnight for best flavor, turning occasionally.

  2. Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).

  3. Place marinated pork roast onto a rack set into a roasting pan; discard the used marinade. Insert a probe-type meat thermometer into thickest part of the roast.

  4. Roast pork loin until thermometer reads 170 degrees F (75 degrees C), 2 1/2 to 3 hours.

  5. Combine apricot preserves, 2 tablespoons sherry, and 1 teaspoon soy sauce in a small saucepan over low heat. Stir until preserves melt. Serve apricot sauce with sliced pork roast.
