For a three-pound cut of meat, which easily feeds our family of five, we only pay about $10. That is a great value for a dinner that works perfectly as a weeknight meal, a holiday main dish, or for entertaining! Here is a brief overview of how to make an oven-roasted pork loin. For the full measurements and cooking time, scroll to the recipe card at the bottom of the post. Your cooking time will vary depending on your cooking method and the size of your pork loin roast. If you are making your pork roast in the oven, it will take approximately one hour. Please note that the time here is for a pork roast that is about 3 inches thick when raw. The thickness is just as important as the weight when considering cooking time. I highly recommend that you get a thermometer that you can leave in the pork loin inside your hot oven. This will keep you from overcooking your pork, something that is easy to do and results in meat that is very white and dry. You can find my recommendation below.
