Pork Rub and Sauce Recipe

  American Pork

Ingredients:
2 tablespoons minced garlic
2 tablespoons ground cumin
2 tablespoons chile powder
2 tablespoons dark-brown sugar
3 tablespoons coarse salt
3 tablespoons freshly cracked pepper
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh oregano
1/4 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
6 tablespoons orange juice
2 tablespoons freshly squeezed lime juice (about 1 lime)
4 dashes Tabasco sauce, or more to taste
2 tablespoons olive oil
BARBECUE SAUCE
1/3 cup molasses
1/2 cup ketchup
1/4 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
2 tablespoons ground cumin
1/2 cup roughly chopped fresh cilantro
1 to 3 tablespoons minced fresh chile peppers (optional)

Directions:
In the bowl of a food processor fitted with the steel blade or in the jar of a blender, combine the paste ingredients, and blend until smooth. Dry the pork (eg. 2 three pound racks of ribs) with paper towels then rub them thoroughly with the paste. Slow roast for 3 hours or until tender and juice runs pink. While cooking, combine the sauce ingredients in a small bowl and mix well. After the meat is cooked, there should be a light crust on the surface. Run the ribs under the broiler 3 to 5 minutes per side. Brush the marinade on during the last 30 seconds of broiling. This is a wonderful rub and marinade combination. I have used it for ribs, but it should be excellent for other cuts of pork.
