How to Make 7 Up Pork Roast With Glaze

1. Pat a 3-4 lb pork loin dry with paper towels.
2. Place the pork loin in a large resealable plastic bag.
3. In a bowl, whisk together 1 cup 7 Up, 1/4 cup soy sauce, 1/2 cup chopped red bell pepper, 1/4 cup chopped onion, and 2 cloves minced garlic.
4. Pour the marinade over the pork loin in the bag.
5. Seal the bag, removing as much air as possible, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight.
6. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
7. Place the bag (unsealed) in a large roasting pan.
8. Make 6-8 slits in the top of the bag to allow steam to escape.
9. Roast for 1 hour 45 minutes to 2 hours, or until a meat thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F (63°C).
10. Remove the pork roast from the bag and set aside to rest for 10 minutes before slicing.
11. Discard the vegetables from the roasting pan.
12. In a microwave-safe bowl, whisk together 2 tbsp all-purpose flour and 2 tbsp cold water until smooth.
13. Stir in 2 tbsp sweet and sour sauce and 1/2 cup of the pan juices.
14. Microwave on high for 2-3 minutes, or until thickened, stirring halfway through. If needed, microwave in 30-second intervals until desired consistency is reached.
15. Slice the pork roast and serve generously drizzled with the glaze.
