Pork Rib Roast
One of the best things about this pork rib roast is its versatility. While it's certainly delicious on its own, it also pairs well with a variety of paleo, AIP, and keto-friendly side dishes. Consider serving it alongside roasted Brussels sprouts, creamed spinach, or a fresh salad. You could even use the leftover meat in a stir-fry or salad for a quick and easy lunch option.
If you're worried about keeping your pork tender, there are a few tips you can follow to ensure that it comes out perfectly every time. First, be sure to let the meat rest at room temperature and marinade in the herbs before cooking. This helps to bring the meat to an even temperature, which can help it cook more evenly. Additionally, be sure to use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the meat as it cooks, and remove it from the oven once it reaches 145°F.
