Add a photoTake a vacation from the ordinary marinated pork loin. This exciting blend of island flavors makes an extraordinary roast.
This recipe used a rolled roast, composed of 2 boneless loins tied together. If a single loin roast is used, the cooking time will be about 25 minutes per pound.
Heavy, resealable, plastic food-storage bags are great for marinating meats and vegetables. They can be used in most recipes that call for marinating food in glass or plastic bowl. Just be sure to place the bag in a dish, in case it leaks.
