Roasted Garlic Pork Supper image

I grow sweet onions and garlic, so they're always on hand when I want to make this roast. I first fixed the recipe for a church retreat, and it was a big hit. Since then, I've prepared it for large groups and family dinners over the years. -Joseph Obbie, Webster, New York
