Pork should be cooked to an internal temp of 185’F. That usually means 20-25 minutes per pound on a pork roast at 350’F.

I do not know your dish, but I believe it needs to be fully cooked. Good luck.

While beef roasts (rare) can be cooked at 12-15 min per pound, pork takes longer (25 min) and requires higher internal temp to be safe.

It hasn't been recommended in ages to cook your pork to leather sir pball Aug 2019 #5

Generally true, although it depends on the cut, and how you're cooking it. rsdsharp Aug 2019 #14
