How to tell if a boneless pork loin roast has gone bad

  • A sour smell trapped underneath the netting
  • A slick, sticky surface where the twine sits
  • A gray-brown band running under the fat cap

When in doubt, throw it out.

Leave the fat cap on while it roasts and trim afterwards — it bastes a very lean cut for free.
