Sprinkle 1 teaspoon ... spice blend. Pat pork roast dry with paper ... or until internal temperature reaches 160 F. for medium or 170 F. for well done.
Roast the pork at 500Â°F for the first 20 minutes. We start at a high temperature so that the outside of the roast will turn all brown and crispy and delicious. You might see a bit of smoke inside the oven, but that's OK â don't panic! After 20 minutes, lower the heat to 250Â°F and cook for another 2 hours or so.
