Don Struble's Puerto Rican Pork Roast recipe

8 servings

3 pounds bone-in pork roast

1 dash hot pepper sauce

2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce

1 (5 ounce) jar stuffed green olives

3 ounces sliced pepperoni sausage

4 cloves garlic, sliced

salt and pepper to taste

3/4 cup water

Rub the roast all over with salt and pepper, hot pepper sauce and Worcestershire sauce.

Let marinate in the refrigerator for 30 minutes.

Preheat oven to 350 degrees F (175 degrees C).

Using a small boning knife, carefully poke holes about 1 inch deep and 1 inch apart all over the roast.

While making each cut twist the knife and insert a drop of hot sauce, wedge of pepperoni, garlic sliver and one olive into each cut.

Place roast in a roasting pan and pour in the water.

Bake at 350 degrees F (175 degrees C) for about 30 minutes per pound or until an internal temperature of 160 degrees F (70 degrees C) is met.

Remove from oven, tent with foil and let roast stand for 10 minutes before carving.
