Preheat oven to 350 degrees.

Stir together maple syrup, mustard, and soy sauce, and brush over entire roast. In shallow roasting pan, pour remaining sauce heavily over roast and drizzle over carrots and potatoes.

Roast in oven, basting meat and vegetables with pan juices at 20 minute intervals, until internal temperature of pork via meat thermometer reaches 155-160 degrees, and vegetables are tender (approx. 1 - 1 1/4 hrs). Remove, slice roast, and serve with vegetables.

Use drippings to make a delicious gravy or serve au jus.

Note: Any cut of pork roast can be used for this recipe, but remember to adjust cooking time for increased weight.

Turkey Roasting Tips:

Do NOT test the bird by poking it with a fork! This will allow the precious juices to escape. To test for doneness, try moving the wings or legs. If the legs or wings of the cooked bird remove easily, the turkey is done.

Roast a fully thawed turkey, thawing per package instructions. Roast slowly in a 325 degree oven, as higher temperatures will result in a dry bird.

A very large, thawed turkey can take 8 hours or more to cook thoroughly. NEVER serve undercooked poultry, as it can cause illness for adults, and severe illness for children. Follow turkey package cooking instructions for best results.
