Tips

Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork reaches 145°F (63°C).
Let the meat rest for 5-10 minutes after removing from the oven.
Go by temperature, not by time.
Marinating or brining the meat beforehand is recommended but optional.
Remove silver skin if present but not necessary.
Try other herbs & spices to customize flavors.
