In a small food

scraping down the sides of the bowl occasionally, until
the garlic is minced. |

Untie the pork roast
to separate the two pork loins. Sprinkle the pork
generously with salt and pepper. Arrange the pancetta
slices on a work surface, overlapping slightly to form a
rectangle. Spread a fourth of the garlic mixture over
the flat side of one pork loin, then top with the
remaining pork loin, flat side down, to reform the pork
roast. Using kitchen twine, tie the pork roast to secure
the loins in place. Spread the remaining garlic mixture
over the surface of the pork and place it on top of the
pancetta. Wrap the pancetta slices around the pork to
cover as completely as possible. Place the pork in a
roasting pan. Cover and refrigerate for at least 1 hour
and up to 24 hours. |

Preheat oven to
450°F. Pour ¾ cup of the broth and ¾ cup of the wine
into the roasting pan. Roast the pork, adding more broth
and wine to the pan juices every 20 minutes, until a
meat thermometer inserted into the center registers
135°F. for medium rare (155°F. for medium), about 1 hour
and 15 to 30 minutes. Transfer the pork to a cutting
board. Tent with aluminum foil and let stand for 10
minutes. Pour the pan drippings into a glass measuring
cup and spoon off any fat that rises to the top. |

Using a large sharp
carving knife, cut the pork into ¼-inch slices, then
serve with the pan juices. |
