Instant Read ThermometerThis thermometer is great because it can be left in your meat while it cooks. You can even set an alarm so you know exactly when the roast reaches 140 degrees.
You will notice that in this recipe we are taking a helping hand from carry over cooking. The premise behind carry over cooking is that meat continues to cook even when removed from the heat source. So while you need your pork to reach 145 degrees for food safety, we are taking it out of the oven at 140 degrees. It is then tented and in the time it needs to rest, it will reach 145 degrees, in about 5 to 10 minutes. You can even leave your thermometer in the pork and watch this happen.
