Preparation

Step 1

Combine the ground mustard, garlic powder, allspice, 2 teaspoons salt, black pepper, balsamic vinegar and light olive oil in a resealable plastic bag. Add pork and shake to distribute the marinade. Squeeze out air and seal bag. Refrigerate and marinate for at least 2 and up to 24 hours or overnight.
Preheat oven to 350°F. Place marinated pork into a glass baking dish along with the marinade. Bake while basting 3-4 times until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145°F; about 1 hour.
While the pork is cooking prepare the cauliflower. In a large bowl, toss the cauliflower with the extra virgin olive oil, rosemary and 1/2 teaspoon salt until well coated. Arrange on baking sheet in a single layer. Bake along with the pork for 40-50 minutes until lightly browned and tender.
Allow the pork to rest 5-10 minutes before serving with the cauliflower.
