Preparation

  1. Step 1

    Place the pork roast in a glass bowl. Combine the remaining ingredients and pour over the roast to coat thoroughly. Refrigerate, covered, at least 12 hours.

  2. Step 2

    Forty-five minutes before cooking, light the charcoal fire.

  3. Step 3

    When the coals are medium-hot, remove the roast from the marinade (reserve the marinade), dry with paper towels and grill, turning frequently, for 10 minutes. Cover the grill with its hood or a makeshift lid of tin foil and roast for 20 minutes, basting frequently, or until a thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the loin reads 110 degrees.

  4. Step 4

    Remove the roast from the grill. Cut into one-inch-thick slices. Coat the slices with the remaining marinade. Grill uncovered four to five minutes on each side, until cooked but still juicy. Serve immediately.
