MEXICAN SPICE RUBBED PORK ROAST



Mexican Spice Rubbed Pork Roast image

Provided by Mary Younkin

Number Of Ingredients 12

1.5 - 2 lb sirloin tip pork roast
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons kosher salt
2 teaspoons chili powder
1 1/2 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon smoked paprika
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon granulated garlic or garlic powder
1/2 teaspoon onion powder
1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
3 tablespoons olive oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Combine all the spices in a small bowl.
  • Add the olive oil and stir well to combine. It will be a thick, paste-like consistency. Allow this mixture
  • to rest for 15 minutes.
  • Line a small baking sheet with foil and place a wire rack over it. Rinse
  • the roast and pat dry. Rub the spice mixture all over the roast,
  • completely covering all sides with spices.
  • Roast 1 - 1.5 hours in the preheated oven. The cooking time really will vary that much, if you have an internal thermometer, this is the time to use it. Otherwise, keep an eye on the roast and check the temperature every few minutes as it gets close to done. Remove from the oven when
  • the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145-150 degrees. Let sit 15
  • minutes before slicing. Enjoy!
  • A couple of side notes: I cooked this pork roast for about an hour and a half. I set it on the counter to warm a bit before putting it in the oven. It was 44 degrees when I put it into the oven. Also, in the summertime (aka, warmer house days) I try to remove the
  • roast from the oven between 142 - 145 degrees. Depending on the temperature of your house, the meat might increase in temperature by as much as ten degrees. So, be careful not to overcook it and dry out the roast. When I cooked this roast, my house was much cooler and it only increased one degree while resting before the temperature started to drop.

Tips and Conclusion

To achieve the best results with these Mexican pork recipes, here are some tips to keep in mind:

  • Choose high-quality pork: Opt for pork shoulder or loin cuts, as they are flavorful and suitable for slow cooking.
  • Use fresh and flavorful spices: Mexican cuisine is known for its bold flavors. Make sure to use fresh herbs and spices like cumin, oregano, chili powder, and paprika.
  • Marinate the pork: Marinating the pork helps infuse it with flavor and tenderize it. Allow the pork to marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
