How Many Minutes Per Pound Do You Cook Pork Loin?
Cooking time for pork loin depends on the weight of the meat. As a general rule of thumb, pork loin should be cooked for 25-30 minutes per pound at a temperature of 350°F (175°C) until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). It is important to use a meat thermometer to ensure that the meat has reached the proper temperature and to avoid overcooking. Resting for a few minutes before slicing will help the juices to redistribute and ensure a juicier, more flavorful pork loin.
