Ingredients

1 teaspoon rubbed sage
½ teaspoon salt
¼ teaspoon pepper
1 clove garlic, crushed
1 (5 pound) boneless pork loin
½ cup sugar
1 tablespoon cornstarch
¼ cup vinegar
¼ cup water
2 tablespoons soy sauce

Steps:

Preheat oven to 325 degrees F (165 degrees C).
In a bowl, combine sage, salt, pepper, and garlic. Rub thoroughly all over pork. Place pork in an uncovered roasting pan on the middle oven rack.
Bake in the preheated oven approximately 3 hours, or until the internal temperature reaches at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C), depending upon your desired doneness.
Meanwhile, place sugar, cornstarch, vinegar, water, and soy sauce in a small saucepan. Heat, stirring occasionally, until mixture begins to bubble and thicken slightly. Brush roast with glaze 3 or 4 times during the last 1/2 hour of cooking. Pour remaining glaze over roast, and serve.
