Pork Loin Rib

Instructions

1. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat, around 375-400°F (190-200°C). If you prefer to use the oven, preheat it to 350°F (180°C) and prepare a baking sheet lined with aluminum foil.

2. In a small bowl, combine the paprika, garlic powder, onion powder, cayenne pepper, salt, and pepper. Mix well to create a dry rub for the ribs.

3. Place the rack of pork loin ribs on a clean surface and pat them dry with paper towels. This helps the dry rub adhere better to the meat.

4. Coat the ribs evenly with the dry rub, making sure to massage it into the meat on both sides. Allow the ribs to sit with the rub for at least 15-20 minutes to let the flavors meld together.

5. If you're grilling the ribs, place them on the preheated grill over indirect heat. Close the lid and cook for about 2 hours, turning occasionally, until the meat is tender and pulls away from the bone easily.

6. For oven cooking, place the seasoned ribs on the prepared baking sheet and cover them tightly with aluminum foil. Roast in the oven for 2.5-3 hours until the meat is fork-tender.

7. Once the ribs are cooked, remove them from the grill or oven and brush them generously with barbecue sauce. Return them to the heat source for an additional 15-20 minutes, allowing the sauce to caramelize slightly.

8. Remove the ribs from the grill or oven and let them rest for a few minutes before slicing them into individual portions. Serve hot with additional barbecue sauce on the side for dipping.
