2 minced cloves of garlic
½ c. dark brown sugar
3 tbsp oil
2 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
2 tbsp Dijon mustard
1/3 c. ketchup
1 tbsp dry mustard
1 tsp ginger
1 c. Coca-Cola
2 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tsp crushed thyme

HOW TO MAKE OLD-SOUTH COCA-COLA PORK LOIN
Step 1: Prepare the oven. Preheat it to 325 degrees F.
Step 2: Whisk the pork roast marinade ingredients until well combined. In a ziplock bag, place the pork roast and the marinade. Seal the bag.
Step 3: In a large bowl, place the Ziploc bag and keep it in the fridge, making sure that the marinade is evenly distributed.
Step 4: Remove the bag from the fridge after 24 hours and take the roast out of the bag. Discard the marinade.
Step 5: In a roasting pan, place the roast, fatty side upwards. Put in the preheated oven and slowly roast until the internal temperature of the pork loin reaches about 175 degrees. Note that each pound of roast takes 30 minutes to bake. Roast for about 2-1/2 to 3 hours if roasting a 5-pound loin roast.
Step 6: Remove from the oven when done and transfer the roast on a platter. Tent with foil to allow to rest for about 15 minutes. Then, slice.
To make the Coca-Cola Sauce: In a saucepan, whisk all the sauce ingredients. Simmer over low heat, stirring and simmering until the sauce has thickened. Glaze the roast with the sauce while cooking. Serve the meat with the extra Coca-Cola sauce.
Tips:
You can slowly roast it at 250 to 275 degrees for more tender meat.
