After that reduce the temp to 250 degrees and cook an additional 1 hour and 40 min. Note: 20 minutes per pound. With a meat thermometer, the temp should reach 120 degrees in the center part of the roast, if you like it pink. If you like it medium cook internal temp to 130 degrees.
• Remove from the oven and let rest 10 minutes. Remove the salt, it will form a hard crust and easy to get off.
• Remove the bacon and rosemary, try and get off as much of the salt that you can. Take a very thin slice off the end in case it may be too salty then slice and serve!
