Brown Sugar Dijon Crusted Pork Roast This is such a quick and easy dinner that it definitely deserves to be called a ‘go-to’ recipe!

See USDA food safety guidelines.Pork roasts should be cooked in the oven at a minimum temperature of 350ºF (175ºC).It is generally 20 minutes per pound of pork roast when cooking at 350ºF. I am cooking at a slightly higher temperature and allowing the roast to finish cooking while resting.Since the Brown Sugar Dijon Crusted Pork Roast was removed from the oven at the lowest safe internal temperature, it had a pink interior.
