DRY RUB FOR SMOKED PORK ROAST



Dry Rub for Smoked Pork Roast image

In the several years since I first posted this, I've been playing with balancing the Cayenne against a good quality Hungarian HOT Paprika and dried ground Thai hot chilies. The Cayenne bites the front of the tongue, the Hungarian warms the middle and the Thai glows down the throat. I've changed the original recipe by replacing the sweet paprika with Hot Hungarian and ground Thai. I'm not a fan of blowing the top of your head off, but I do like a WARM GLOW all the way down! This NEW and IMPROVED blend does the job! Pack on as much as will stick to the roast.

DRY-RUB BARBECUE PORK ROAST



Dry-Rub Barbecue Pork Roast image

Sweet, savory and smoky barbecue flavor doesn't have to come out of a bottle, as this recipe proves. Dig around among your spices and condiments, and it's likely you can whip together this dry rub without running to the store. The method is equally easy-just don't skip the butter basting step halfway through. It adds lots of flavor, moisture and helps the roast to brown. Once your roast is cooked, you've got enough pork to feed a full house, whether you want to serve it on a bun, shred it for tacos or just serve it sliced with extra barbecue sauce on the side!

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.

Tips:

  • Use a good quality cut of pork. A well-marbled pork roast will be more tender and flavorful than a leaner cut.
  • Make sure the pork roast is dry before applying the rub. This will help the rub adhere to the meat.
  • Apply the rub evenly to the pork roast, making sure to get into all the nooks and crannies.
  • Let the pork roast rest at room temperature for 30 minutes before cooking. This will help the meat cook more evenly.
  • Roast the pork roast in a preheated oven at 350 degrees Fahrenheit for 1 hour and 15 minutes per pound, or until the internal temperature reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork roast rest for 15 minutes before carving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.
