Steps:
- Place rack in center of oven. Heat oven to 500 degrees. With the point of a paring knife, make 1/2-inch slits toward the center all around the roast. Insert the garlic in the slits, accompanied by a needle of rosemary, if using. Rub roast generously with salt and pepper. Place roast and bones, if available, in a roasting pan just large enough to hold them. Roast for 45 to 50 minutes, or until meat reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees. The meat might still be slightly pink, but this is fine. Don't overcook the roast, or it will be dry and unappealing. Remove roast and bones to a platter. Let meat rest before slicing across. Snip off strings. Juices will collect better in a platter than on a cutting board.

ROSEMARY AND GARLIC SMOKED PORK ROAST
Covering meat with aluminum foil after removing from the grill keeps the surface from cooling off too fast while it stands. The standing time helps it retain its juices so the meat won't be dry. You can use the same method to keep hot-from-the-oven rolls or a hot side dish warm for a short time while waiting for the rest of the meal.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork: For this recipe, a pork shoulder or pork butt is ideal. These cuts are well-marbled and will remain moist and flavorful during the long cooking process.
- Use a good quality olive oil: The olive oil you use will contribute to the flavor of the dish, so choose a good quality extra virgin olive oil.
- Don't be afraid to season the pork: Pork is a meat that can handle a lot of seasoning, so don't be afraid to be generous with the garlic, salt, and pepper. You can also add other herbs and spices to your taste.
- Cook the pork slowly: The key to a tender and flavorful pork roast is to cook it slowly. This will allow the connective tissues in the meat to break down and the flavors to meld together.
- Let the pork rest before carving: Once the pork is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before carving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful roast.
Conclusion:
This garlic pork roast is a simple but flavorful dish that is perfect for a special occasion or a weeknight meal. The combination of garlic, salt, and pepper is classic, and the slow cooking process results in a tender and juicy roast. Serve this pork roast with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
