help! how to cook "pork loin rib end roast"?

[anunez]

So i admit it - meat intimidates me. Also its so confusing as the type listed on the package can often be different than anything in my cookbooks. I wanted to make this tonight for a couple of friends but all of my cookbooks say center rib roast or some other something. Doesnt need to be fancy just need a basic way to cook this sucker. Did I mention I need to do this tonight??? (Never again will I try something new for a weekday dinner party) Thanks!!

The most simple answer I know of is 350 degrees & 30 minutes per pound. Test with a meat thermometer for done temperature of 160 to 175 degrees F.

Ack! No!!! At 160 a pork loin roast will be dry and overdone; at 175 it will be shoe leather. It needs to come out of the oven at 145, max.
