Ingredients for the Pork Roast Best Rub
- ½ cup brown sugar
- 1 tablespoon coarsely ground black pepper
- 1 tablespoon kosher salt
- 1½ teaspoons garlic powder
- 1 teaspoon dry mustard powder
- ½ teaspoon ground ginger

Instructions for Making the Pork Roast Best Rub
- In a bowl, combine the brown sugar, coarsely ground black pepper, kosher salt, garlic powder, dry mustard powder, ground ginger, onion powder, red pepper flakes, cayenne pepper, ground cumin, smoked paprika, and dried thyme leaves. Mix thoroughly.
- Rub the mixture evenly over the pork loin roast, ensuring it is well-coated. Cover and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, allowing the flavors to penetrate the meat thoroughly.
- Preheat the oven to 375°F (190°C). Place the marinated pork loin roast in a roasting pan.
- Roast the pork in the oven for 50 minutes or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C). This is crucial for ensuring the pork is cooked to perfection while retaining its juiciness.
- Let the roast rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. This step helps the juices redistribute within the meat, ensuring a tender and flavorful meal.
- Slice and serve the pork roast drizzled with any pan juices for added flavor.
Healthier Cooking Option (Optional)
For a healthier twist, consider using an air fryer to cook the pork roast. This method can result in a lower fat content by eliminating excess oil during cooking, and it can help you achieve the same crispy, caramelized exterior.
