Pork Roast with Herb Rub

Posted on October 7, 2012

Ingredients

  • 1.5 - 2 lb sirloin tip pork roast
  • 1 1/4 tablespoons smoked paprika
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
  • 1/2 teaspoon freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 teaspoon garlic powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon onion powder
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried oregano
  • 1/2 teaspoon dried thyme
  • 1 tablespoon kosher salt
  • 2 tablespoons olive oil

Directions

  1. Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. 
  2. Combine all the spices in a small bowl. Add the olive oil and whisk or stir well to combine. Allow this mixture to rest for 15 minutes. It will become a bit thicker and turn into a paste-like consistency.
  3. Rinse the roast and pat dry. Rub the spice mixture all over the roast, completely covering all sides with spices.
  4. Roast 1 - 1.5 hours in the preheated oven. Remove from the oven when the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees. Let sit 15 minutes before slicing.
