This simple roast recipe was taught to me by the late Ida Lippi Pike back when I was a teenager. She was born in Fiesole, Italy and came to America after the war. Her stash of old world recipes was vast. Every time I cook this, it’s a hit. Garlic, bacon, salt, pepper, and olive oil are the only ingredients aside from the pork roast. I have used pork loins, Boston butts, and even a beef shoulder in the past. Whatever you use it will fill the house with a mouth watering aroma. Enjoy!
