TOTAL TIME
1
Combine 1/2 cup olive oil and 10 garlic cloves in a large resealable bag. Gently mash with a blunt object to release the garlic flavor into the oil.
2
Butterfly the pork loin roast and place in the bag. Seal the bag, ensure the roast is evenly coated, and marinate in the fridge for 4 hours.
3
Place remaining 12 garlic cloves in a skillet and toast over medium heat until lightly browned and fragrant (about 8 minutes), then set aside to cool.
4
Mince 10 of the cooled, toasted garlic cloves and combine with red pepper flakes, dried thyme, 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper. Mash together to form a paste.
5
Preheat the oven to 325 degrees F. Remove the pork from the marinade, pat dry with paper towels, and then smear the garlic-thyme paste inside the butterfly cut, leaving a one-inch border.
6
Using cooking twine, tie the roast securely. Season the outside of the pork with the remaining 1/2 teaspoon of salt and 1/4 teaspoon of black pepper.
7
In the same skillet you used for the garlic, sear the pork roast on all sides over medium-high heat until browned (about 10 minutes).
8
Transfer the pork to a wire rack set on a rimmed baking sheet and roast in the preheated oven for 60-70 minutes, or until the thickest portion registers 145 degrees Fahrenheit on a meat thermometer.
9
While the pork is roasting, mince the remaining 2 toasted garlic cloves and combine with unsalted butter and sugar in a small saucepan. Heat on low until the butter is melted and the garlic is golden.
10
After removing the pork from the oven, immediately brush with the garlic butter, then cover and let rest for 20 minutes to allow the juices to redistribute.
11
Slice the rested pork roast and serve warm.
