who’s ready for bold, bright summer flavors?! let’s dive in!
Jerk Rubbed Pork Loin
Every time I make pork that little commercial with “Pork the Other White Meat” slogan comes to mind. It’s more like “Poohharrkkk, the Otha White Meat!!!”. Lol, know what I’m talking about?
All randomness aside, pork is pretty underrated in my humble little opinion. It’s very versatile, pairs well with a variety of flavors, and plays very well with both white and red wines. Playing well with wine is key my friends. I mean, I play well with wine. LOL.
Anyway, spring makes me all giddy for summer which has me craving bold & smokey flavors, and alas this recipe for Jerk Rubbed Pork Loin was born. You can thank me later (I’m in a very punchy mood today, can you tell?!) Anyway…
Let’s get to it!
WHAT YOU’LL NEED (measurements below):
Pork Loin
Garlic powder
Cayenne
Paprika
Coconut sugar (or brown sugar)
Thyme
Nutmeg
Cinnamon
WHAT YOU’LL DO:
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. Pull your pork loin out of the fridge and let it come to room temp. Combine all spices, salt and coconut sugar into a ramekin and mix well.
Trim the fat off of the pork, pat it dry with a paper towel and liberally rub with 2.5 tablespoons of the jerk seasoning. You can save the remaining seasoning for whatever you like. Place the pork onto a cookie sheet lined with a wire rack and roast in the oven for 80-90 minutes. Low & slow, friends. A thermometer should read 145 degrees and there should be no pink in the middle. Let this rest for 10 minutes for serving, slice up and dig in!
