topcook.tomathouse.com

Ingredients:

  • 1 pork loin on the bone weighing 2.7-3.5 kg.
  • Olive oil for greasing
  • 1/3 cup Dijon mustard
  • 1/4 cup chili powder
  • 2 tbsp. l. ground cumin
  • 2 tbsp garlic powder
  • 2 tbsp smoked or hot Hungarian paprika
  • 2 tbsp onion powder
  • 2 tablespoons ground turmeric
  • 1 tbsp coarse salt
  • 2 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 1 cup of warm water
  • 0.5 cups of sugar
  • 1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice

Preparation:

  1. Preheat grill to 220°C for indirect heat.
  2. Brush the pork loin with oil on all sides and grill over direct heat for about 15 minutes. Let it cool slightly until you can handle it, then brush it with mustard on all sides.
  3. In a medium bowl, combine chili powder, cumin, garlic powder, paprika, onion powder, turmeric, salt, and black pepper. Rub the spice mixture evenly over the pork on all sides.
  4. Place the pork, ribs side down, in the indirect heat of the grill. Reduce grill temperature to 175°C.
  5. In a small bowl, combine warm water, sugar, and lime juice until the sugar is completely dissolved. Using a brush or spray bottle, brush or spray the pork throughout the roasting process, starting after 20 minutes and continuing every 15 minutes until done.
  6. Remove from the grill when a thermometer inserted into the center of the meat (away from the bone) reads 145-150°F (63-65°C), about 1.5 hours total. Remove the pork from the grill, cover loosely with foil, and let rest for 15-20 minutes before slicing and serving.
