- 1/2 t. ground cumin
- 1/2 t. salt
- 1/4 t. garlic powder
- 1/4 t. ground cinnamon
- 1/8 t. black pepper
Instructions
Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a bowl, combine spice ingredients; rub over pork. Place pork in a roasting pan. Roast until meat thermometer inserted into thickets part of pork registers 170 degrees (about 1-1/2 – 2 hours).
Brush with wamred jelly during the last 20 minutes of cooking time. Let stand 10 minutes before slicing.
NOTE: Use good quality pepper-jelly (not the stuff with the red dye in it). Use the leftover jelly by spreading some cream cheese on a plate, spread pepper jelly over the top and serve with crackers of your choice.
