  • Honey: Local honey is best or a sweet honey to add that sweetness.
  • Soy Sauce: Low sodium is the soy sauce I usually
  • Dried Basil: Adds a rustic and dry seasoning to this sweet sauce.
  • Minced Garlic: Garlic is always a favorite. Minced fresh or already in a marinated jar.
  • Olive Oil: This adds to the flavoring as well as coats the pork roast.
  • Salt: Just a pinch to taste.
  • Cornstarch: This cornstarch helps at the end to thicken the sauce making it a savory thick gravy sauce.

Cooking Temperatures for Pork:

Knowing when pork is at its tender best is easier than you think. All you need is a meat thermometer. Because for most pork cuts, an internal temperature of 145˚F ensures that you’ll have perfectly cooked pork that is tender and juicy, and not dry. Take a look at this video and you’ll learn that just like steak, it’s okay if your pork is pink on the inside. The National Pork Board recommends cooking chops, roasts, loins, and tenderloin to an internal temperature of 145° F, followed by a three-minute rest.

  • Rare to Medium: 145 to 150 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Medium: 150 to 155 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Medium to Well: 155 to 160 degrees Fahrenheit
  • Well: 160 degrees Fahrenheit
