Cooking Techniques
The Ninja Foodi makes cooking pork roast super easy! The Bake/Roast setting at 390°F creates a lovely outer crust while keeping the inside juicy. The flip halfway through is a simple but smart move – it helps the roast cook evenly on all sides. Want to nail the perfect doneness? A meat thermometer is your best friend here. That 145°F reading gives you tender, slightly pink meat that’s both safe and delicious.
Storage Tips
Got leftovers? Lucky you! Let your pork roast cool completely, then wrap it tightly in foil or pop it in an airtight container. It’ll stay fresh in the fridge for 3-4 days. For longer storage, slice it up and freeze it for up to 3 months. When you’re ready to enjoy it again, thaw it overnight in the fridge. Quick tip: save any juices from the roast – they’re packed with flavor and perfect for reheating!
Serving Suggestions
This tasty pork roast loves simple sides! Try it with roasted potatoes and carrots, or keep it light with a fresh green salad. The seasoning blend makes it perfect for sandwiches too – just slice it thin and pile it on your favorite bread with some mayo or mustard. Want to make it a complete meal? Add some steamed vegetables and maybe a dinner roll to soak up those wonderful juices.
