It weighed 3.13 pounds.  The directions said to cook it at 425\u00b0 until it gets to 145\u00b0 in the thickest part.  Alas, it didn&#8217;t give a time reference.  I took a look at my meat cookbook.  It recommended 450\u00b0 for 20 minutes and then some other behavior I ignored.<\/p>\n<p>So I guesstimated 30 minutes.  Checked.  Not close.  40 minutes?  Closer.  I took about 45 minutes before it got to about 135\u00b0, which is when I removed it.  Then I let it rest for 15 minutes to let it finish cooking and redistribute the juices.<\/p>\n<p>I&#8217;ll have to reconsider the time.  I haven&#8217;t eaten enough of the roast yet to figure out whether the middle was too raw, but I think next time 40 minutes for a similar size roast would be good enough.<\/p>\n<p>[image:2:]<\/p>\n<p>2014-11-21:  I&#8217;ve been eating the roast for several days now.  It actually turned out really, really good.  The middle has a bit of pink left.  Very tasty.  It rocks.  I bet 40 minutes without interruption would work great for this weight.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>None<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-1137","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-uncategorized"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1137","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1137"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1137\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1137"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1137"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"http:\/\/shininghappypeople.net\/blogs\/intentional-eating\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1137"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
