Coca-Cola Pork Loin by

Ingredients

1/4 cup soy sauce
1 cup Coca-Cola
1/2 cup brown sugar
2 Tablespoons Dijon mustard
3 Tablespoons oil
2 Tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
1/3 cup ketchup
2 cloves garlic, minced
2 Tablespoons rice wine vinegar
5 pounds pork loin roast

Glaze
1 cup brown sugar
1 Tablespoon cornstarch
2 Tablespoons butter
1/3 cup rice wine vinegar
2/3 cup Coca-Cola
salt and ground pepper

Instructions

Combine all the ingredients except for the meat, to form a marinade. Set the pork roast in a plastic bag with a zip-type seal, pour in the marinade and seal the bag. Set the plastic bag in a serving bowl large enough to steady the roast and keep the marinade ingredients from spreading away from the roast. Let stand for 24 hours or overnight in the refrigerator, patting and turning the bag every few hours to ensure the meat marinates evenly. This helps the roast absorb the marinating liquids and creates a tender, juicy and flavorful roast. Remove roast from marinade and discard the marinade. Place roast, fat side up, on rack in roasting pan. Do not add water. Do not cover. Roast at 325*F until meat thermometer reads 175*F. Allow 30 to 40 minutes per pound for roasting, so for a 5 pound loin roast, you would be roasting for about 2-1/2 to 3 hours. During last 1/2 hour of cooking time, brush on the glaze. If you prefer, you can just as easily cook on the grill or in the smoker. Remove from the oven and out of the pan onto a platter; cover with foil tent to seal steam and rest the meat 15 minutes before slicing and this results in a much juicier roast.

Glaze:
Mix together all ingredients in sauce pan; simmer and stir to thicken. Brush or spoon glaze on meat frequently during cooking. You can also serve any remaining sauce with the sliced pork if you like.
