BBQ Pork Loin

Every now and then, in winter, you plan a roast dinner only to have an unexpectedly sunny day - on those days, I quite like to cook the joint on the barbecue instead.
When cooking a large joint of meat on the barbecue, the aim is to try and avoid direct heat: the joint should be placed over an inactive burner. This is so that it doesn't dry out so quickly - however it also mean that you'll need to make sure you have a suitable drip tray to catch the fat run-off.
Once cooked, the meat can be served with the normal roast trimmings, or with something like air-fried new potatoes and salad
BBQ Rub for Pork

Sometimes, rather than roasting pork, I cook a joint on the barbecue. The best BBQ flavours, though, happen when the pork has first been seasoned with a dry rub.
This rub achiveves a slightly sweet BBQ flavour, though variations can be made by adding things like garlic or chilli poweder to it.
