Yield:

Ingredients:

  1. 1 (3 lb.) boneless pork roast
  2. 1 cup coarsely chopped parsley
  3. 1/4 cup chopped onion
  4. 6 cloves garlic, coarsley chopped
  5. 1/4 cup lemon juice
  6. 1/4 cup olive oil
  7. 1 teaspoon dried oregano
  8. 1 teaspoon crushed red pepper
  9. 1 teaspoon salt
  10. 1/2 teaspoon black pepper
  11. Lemon slices, for garnish
  12. Lime slices, for garnish
Directions:

Place pork roast in self-sealing plastic bag.

In food processor, place parsley, onion and garlic and pulse until minced. Add remaining ingredients, except garnish, and process to blend. Coat pork in plastic bag with this mixture. Seal bag and refrigerate overnight.

Prepare medium-hot fire in grill. Remove pork from marinade (discard marinade) and place pork roast over drip pan on grill over indirect heat. Close grill cover and cook until internal temperature (measured with a meat thermometer) reads 155 degrees F., about 45 minutes to an hour. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing. Garnish with lemon and lime slices.

This grill recipe is great! Prepare the day before and simply close the cover and let the grill do all the work with no fussing, leaving you time to spend with family and friends. Serve with grill-roasted corn on the cob and freshly made lemonade.
