I wish my mother wasn't so stubborn..

Ugh... my mom just invited us over for Sunday dinner. She's making a pork loin. Somehow, she got it into her head that pork loin has to cook for 2 hours, no matter what. I've tried to show her she should cook it to an interior temperature. Her pork loin is always WAY overcooked and like chewing on leather.

Make one, one day and invite her over!! She’ll notice the difference and hopefully you can go from there. My mom only cooks on major holidays. We’re never invited over for dinner.

@Winenot Oh, I've done that plenty of times. She'll say "isn't this a little underdone?" In the meantime, my dad's wolfing down third and fourth helpings! lol....

@lilcountrygrl Oh no! “Old dog” no new tricks, I guess. Sorry. Eat before you over. 😁
