Tips:

  • Choose high-quality pork: Start with well-marbled pork shoulder or pork loin for the best flavor and texture.
  • Use a flavorful rub: The rub is what gives the pork its incredible flavor, so don't skimp on the ingredients. Combine a blend of spices, herbs, and other seasonings to create a rub that suits your taste.
  • Don't overcook the pork: Pork should be cooked to an internal temperature of 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare, 155°F (68°C) for medium, or 165°F (74°C) for well-done. Overcooking will make the pork dry and tough.
  • Let the pork rest before slicing: When the pork is cooked, let it rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful pork.
  • Serve with your favorite sides: Italian pork pairs well with a variety of sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a fresh salad.

Conclusion:

This Italian pork rub is a delicious and easy way to add tons of flavor to your next pork dish. With a combination of fennel, rosemary, sage, and crushed red pepper, this rub will take your pork to the next level. Whether you're grilling, roasting, or pan-frying, this rub will give your pork an incredible flavor that your family and friends will love.
