  • Combine the dry rub ingredients.
  • When ready to cook, remove from refrigerator and rub liberally with the dry rub.
  • Thread the rotisserie spit through the meat lengthwise.
  • Spit roast until the internal temperature of the pork loin reaches 135F Remove from your BBQ and let rest 15-20 minutes.

Notes

If you don't like my dry rub use yours. Just make sure you don't use more salt. It will be well seasoned from the dry brine. If you didn't have time to dry brine use whatever you want. You are in control here!
Cook the pork to an internal temperature of 135F. The temperature will rise another 5 degrees or so while the roast rests. This follows health guidelines. The days of cooking pork to 160F are gone. Google it!
