Start by slicing and opening up until a long piece of meat (3–4 lb) folds out.
For the stuffing, to a large bowl add chopped garlic (3 cloves), finely chopped poblano pepper (1), zest of a lemon (1 lemon), chopped parsley (½ bunch), and season to taste with salt and pepper. Drizzle in olive oil (¼ cup) and mix to combine.
Spread all across the unrolled pork roast (3–4 lb) then roll the roast up. Tie at four even spaced intervals with butcher's twine.
Place on a wire rack over a foil lined baking sheet. Season generously with salt and pepper.
Place in a 450°F oven for 15 minutes.
Lower immediately to 325°F and roast an additional 45-60 minutes. Our internal temperature reaches 145°F.
