Ingredients
- 3 pounds pork loin
- 0.25 cup Dijon mustard
- 2 tablespoons whole grain mustard
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons olive oil
- 3 cloves garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon rosemary, chopped
- 1 teaspoon thyme, chopped
- 1.5 teaspoons salt
- 1 teaspoon black pepper
Directions
Step 1
Preheat your oven to 375°F (190°C).
Step 2
Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels and season it all over with 1 teaspoon of salt and 1 teaspoon of black pepper.
Step 3
In a small bowl, whisk together Dijon mustard, whole grain mustard, honey, olive oil, minced garlic, chopped rosemary, and chopped thyme to create the glaze.
Step 4
Place the seasoned pork loin on a roasting rack set over a baking dish or pan.
Step 5
Brush the mustard glaze evenly over the pork loin, ensuring all sides are coated.
Step 6
Insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the pork loin. This will help you monitor doneness during cooking.
Step 7
Transfer the pork loin to the oven and roast for about 50-60 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C).
Step 8
Every 20 minutes, baste the pork loin with the juices that accumulate in the pan to keep it moist.
Step 9
Once the pork loin has reached the desired temperature, remove it from the oven and tent it loosely with foil. Let it rest for 10-15 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
Step 10
Slice the pork loin into thick, even portions and serve warm with your favorite sides. Enjoy!
