OVEN-ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH DRY RUB



Oven-Roasted Pork Loin With Dry Rub image

A highly rated recipe from All Recipes.com/submitted by branchan that I have tweaked just slightly I feel for the better! ---I also use this rub on boneless Boston butt roast that I roast in the oven and then slice, for a pork loin about 1/2 to 3/4 cup of the rub should be enough although you may use more if desired --- the roast needs to marinate for a minimum of 6 hours or up to 24 hours in the fridge, then must sit out at room temperature for a couple hours before roasting, so plan well in advance, make certain to line your pan completely with foil, because of the brown sugar it will be very hard to clean, or use a heavy disposable foil pan.

Time 35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1 teaspoon dried thyme
Salt
1 1/4 pounds pork tenderloin
1 tablespoon olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450 degrees F.
  • In separate bowl mix dry ingredients such as garlic powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, thyme and salt. Stir mixture with a fork until all the ingredients are well combined and they form a seasoning. This will be used as a rub to ensure the pork is well seasoned throughout. Sprinkle the rub over the tenderloin with a dry hand, then rub the pork with the seasoning over both sides of the meat, pressing gently so the seasoning adheres well to the tenderloin.

DRY RUB FOR PORK



Dry Rub for Pork image

Provided by Food Network

Categories     condiment

Yield 2 1/2 cups

Number Of Ingredients 7

1/2 cup ground black pepper
1/2 cup seasoned salt
1 1/4 cups turbinado sugar
1/4 cup brown sugar
1 tablespoon salt
1 tablespoon dry mustard
3/4 tablespoon chili powder

Steps:

  • Mix all dry ingredients. Rub on the outside of pork butt before smoking on grill. Note: Multiply this recipe by four if you are smoking a half of pig.

Tips:

  • Choose the right cut of pork loin: Look for a loin that is at least 1 inch thick and has a good amount of marbling.
  • Make sure your pork loin is trimmed of excess fat: This will help the rub adhere to the meat and prevent it from burning.
  • Pat the pork loin dry with paper towels: This will help the rub stick to the meat.
  • Apply the rub liberally to the pork loin: Make sure to coat all sides of the meat.
  • Let the pork loin rest for at least 30 minutes before cooking: This will allow the rub to penetrate the meat and develop its flavors.
  • Cook the pork loin according to the recipe instructions: Be careful not to overcook the meat, as this will make it dry and tough.
  • Let the pork loin rest for 10 minutes before slicing: This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Pork loin is a versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you are grilling, roasting, or baking it, using a dry rub is a great way to add flavor and moisture to the meat. With the right combination of spices and herbs, you can create a delicious and memorable dish that your family and friends will love.
