How long to cook a 11 pound pork roast?

Answer 1

It is a very difficult question to answer. The problem is that every size and shape of a pork loin is different, which is the major factor in determining how long to cook it. Also, the temperature of the roast going into the oven matters - is it straight out of the fridge or has it been sitting out for fifteen minutes during the seasoning/prepping process? To avoid all of these factors, simply buy an instant read thermometer and roast at 400* until you reach an internal temperature of 135*. This will achieve a nice medium-well temperature that will be nice and juicy. Don't believe the hype that you have to cook pork to well done, there has not been a case of trichinosis reported in this country in almost 50 years. I happen to eat my pork medium-rare. I am a professional chef, btw...

Answer 2

Cook until the internal temperature reads at least 140 degrees. This will vary in time depending on cooking temperature and the specific cut of the roast.
