Description

TIME: Prep: 10 min. + marinating Bake: 50 min. + standing

In Moberly, Missouri, Andrea Schumann relies on honey, white wine and a little lemon juice for a low-carb entree that everyone enjoys. "The marinade has a light, flavorful taste that works well with any cut of pork," she promises.

Directions

In a large resealable plastic bag, combine the first six ingredients; add pork roast. Seal bag and turn to coat; refrigerate for 8 hours or overnight, turning several times.

Preheat oven to 350°.

Drain and discard marinade.

Place roast on a rack in a shallow foil-lined roasting pan. Bake, uncovered, 25 minutes.

In a small bowl, combine the wine or broth, honey and brown sugar.

Brush half over the meat. Bake 15 minutes longer.

Brush with remaining honey mixture. Bake 10-20 minutes longer or until a meat thermometer reads 160°.

Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
