Sweet Chipotle Pork Roast

Author: Mrs Happy Homemaker

Ingredients

  • 1 3-5 pound pork roast
  • 1 20oz can of crushed pineapple, 1/2 the juice drained out
  • 1 to 3 chipotle peppers depending on how spicy you want it
  • 1 cup honey
  • 1 tsp fresh grated ginger
  • salt & pepper to taste

Instructions

  • Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
  • Combine the pineapple, chipotle peppers, honey, & ginger together in a small saucepan & bring to a slow boil. Turn the heat to low & simmer for about 15 minutes.
  • Salt & pepper the pork loin to taste. Place the roast on a roasting rack, and pour 3/4 cup of water in the bottom of the pan. Drizzle 1/2 cup of the glaze over the roast. Cover tightly with aluminum foil.
  • Bake until the internal temperature reaches 135 degrees using an internal thermometer. Remove the tinfoil, pour another 1/2 cup of glaze on top and continue cooking until the internal temp reaches 150. Remove from the oven & let rest for 15 minutes. It will continue cooking a little & reach the right temp by then.
  • Slice the roast, and serve with the additional glaze.
