What to do with a 4lb pork roast?

[DIRTYBIRDZ]

Looking for suggestions about cooking a 4lb rib in pork roast. Should I put in a brine before cooking? Should I sear it and then cook it indirect for awhile? Maybe smoke it? Marinade or rub it down?

Thanks for any tips and suggestions. Will be cooking on my Performer. :help:

If I had a pork roast just laying around, I would buy some chicken to go with it and make a big pot of brunswick stew.

No... but seriously, I would do a mild brine on that, using lots and lots of fennel and garlic and salt and pepper. Slow smoke to start with some apple wood on the WSM for a very long time, and then maybe a quick sear on the performer with fresh lump and a good 20 minute rest after that.

Some of Guerry's Slaw would go well with that!

Cheers!

I second that operation. At the very minimum, brine it overnight.
