A delightful pork roast recipe featuring a tangy cranberry and pineapple glaze, perfect for family dinners or special occasions.
Preheat your oven to 350°F (175°C).
Preheating ensures even cooking from the start.
Pierce the pork roast with a knife in several places to allow the flavors to penetrate.
Piercing the meat helps the seasoning and glaze infuse deeply.
Mix the seasoning salt, black pepper, garlic powder, and onion powder together in a small bowl.
Combine the spices thoroughly for an even flavor distribution.
Rub the spice mixture all over the pork roast, ensuring it is evenly coated.
Massage the spices into the meat for better adherence.
Place the sliced onion at the bottom of a roasting pan and position the pork roast on top.
The onions act as a natural rack and add flavor to the drippings.
In a bowl, mix the cranberry sauce and pineapple chunks together.
Mix thoroughly to combine the flavors of the cranberry and pineapple.
Pour the glaze over the pork roast, covering it evenly.
Ensure the glaze covers the roast completely for maximum flavor.
Cover the roasting pan with aluminum foil and bake in the preheated oven for 1 to 1.5 hours, or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 155°F (68°C).
Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature accurately.
Remove the roast from the oven and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the meat tender and juicy.
Slice the pork roast and serve with the remaining glaze and your favorite sides.
Garnish with fresh herbs for a touch of color and flavor.
