Ingredients
- 1 box (6 ounces) stuffing mix
- 1 boneless, center-cut pork loin roast (about 3 pounds), excess fat trimmed
- 3 tablespoons olive oil
- 1/4 cup all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1/2 teaspoon pepper
- 3 pounds sweet potatoes (about 9), with skins, cut into 1 1/2-inch chunks
Directions
Heat oven to 450 degrees F.
Prepare the stuffing mix according to package instructions in a bowl.
Place roast, fat side up, on a clean surface. With a sharp knife, cut along length of pork loin without cutting all the way through. Open up pork like a book. Spoon stuffing down center of pork. Close pork over stuffing. Tie up loin with kitchen twine, spacing twine about every 1 1/2 inches. Rub pork with 1 tablespoon olive oil. Stir together the flour, salt and pepper in a small bowl. Rub the seasoned flour mixture evenly over the pork loin.
Toss together sweet potato chunks and the remaining 2 tablespoons olive oil in a roasting pan; spread out evenly over bottom of pan. Place the tied pork loin, fat side up, on top of the potatoes in the roasting pan.
Roast in 450 degrees F oven for about 10 minutes. Reduce oven temperature to 350 degrees F. Continue to roast for 55 to 60 minutes or until instant-read meat thermometer inserted into the pork, but not in the stuffing, registers 150 to 155 degrees F and potatoes are fork tender. Let the pork rest for about 15 minutes; temperature of pork should increase to 160 degrees F. Keep the sweet potatoes warm. Remove the twine from the pork loin before slicing. Serve with potatoes.

We loved this. Watch the video, it's very helpful. I used leftover stuffing from Thanksgiving. I roasted to 140 degrees (per Ina, wrapped in foil and rested for 20 minutes. I used white and sweet potatoes (I'm the only roasted sweet eater here - yay, more for me!. One thing, the potatoes underneath the roast need to be small and flat; otherwise, they don't cook through. Pork is really tender. Our granddaughter kept asking how did I find a turkey that looks like this? (She's 4. Wait til next year. Pork is so tender - I cut off all visible fat and put about 1 T of olive oil on it and a bunch of thyme and rosemary tied together on top. I separately roasted brussels sprouts, onions, red bell peppers, and portobello mushrooms. We had Robin Miller's Quick Fix Beer Bread (as muffins. Excellent meal for a chilly night.

I made this recipe exactly as stated. It turned out great! I was worried about no seasoning on the potatoes, but they were fabulous!! I am going to make this for my dinner guests coming next week. This is definitely a great pork recipe that I will make again!
