Pork loin with bone

Description

Unlike beef or lamb, pork loin will be much more affordable. It's very important to cook the meat properly—without drying it out, yet ensuring it's well done. Pork pairs well with various spices and herbs. Serve the cooked pork loin with vegetables, mashed potatoes, or green peas. This is a meal suitable for a large gathering.
