Roast Pork Loin with Honey Mustard Sauce



I bought a pork loin the kind with the bone in, kinda looks like lamb chops. I wanted to do something a little different. I didn't have any Thyme or Rosemary so I improvised and used Poultry Seasoning. What Poultry seasoning? Well i figured Pork is the other white meat so why not try it.

Ingredients: 1 pork loin bone-in or bone out (whatever size you need)
2Tbsps poultry seasoning
salt&pepper
1/2 cup honey
1/3 cup mustard
2 tsp vinegar

Rub the pork loin with the poultry seasoning, add some salt & pepper. Put in roasting pan or a roaster whatever you have. Put in a 425 degree oven for about 1 hour. Take out, mix honey, mustard, and vinegar together spread on top of pork loin. Put foil on top and lower temp to 350 degrees, cook another hour or so until done and juices run clear. I think on pork the internal temperature should be 170. But I am ghetto i just use the old nose to tell me when it's done, haven't poisoned any one yet. Well at least not on purpose, jk!! I served with some rice pilaf and green beans.
