Pork Roast With Cippolini Onions And Portobello Mushrooms

The cause of Christ has been hurt more by Sunday-morning benchwarmers who pretend to love Christ, who call Him Lord but do not His commands, than by all the publicans and sinners. They say they are evangelical but not evangelistic. They glory in being… disciples of the Lowest Common Denominator. They traffic in unfelt truth and refuse to get excited over religion. Their ideal service is 'a mild-mannered man standing before a group of mild-mannered people, exhorting everybody to be more mild-mannered'... How many nice, comfortable, lovely people rest smilingly in church pews, their conscience drugged, their wills paralyzed, in self-satisfied stupor, utterly unconscious of their danger while the Lord of the Lampstands warns them, 'I am about to spit you out of My mouth.

INSTRUCTIONS

Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F. Season the pork well with salt and
pepper. Heat 2 tablespoons of the olive oil in a Dutch oven until
smoking, and sear the roast on all sides. Drain the excess fat and
place in an oven and roast for 50 minutes. Toss the onions and
mushrooms with the remaining olive oil and season them with salt and
pepper to taste and add them to the pan. Continue roasting until the
pork reaches an internal temperature of 155-160 F. on an instant read
thermometer.  Remove the roast, onions, and mushrooms to a platter and
cover with  aluminum foil. Degrease the pot and place over high heat on
top of the  stove. Add both wines and reduce by 3/4. Add the stock and
bring to a  boil. In a small bowl mix the flour and butter and slowly
whisk into  the stock, cook until the sauce coats the back of a spoon.
Season  with salt and pepper and add the onions, mushrooms, and thyme
