How to Make Apple Cider Marinated Rack Of Pork Roast

  1. In a medium bowl, whisk together 1 cup apple cider, 1/4 cup olive oil, 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar, 1 tablespoon Dijon mustard, 1 tablespoon brown sugar, 1 teaspoon ground cinnamon, 1 teaspoon ground allspice, 1/2 teaspoon salt, and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper.
  2. Place the rack of pork (approximately 3-4 pounds) in a large resealable gallon bag.
  3. Pour the marinade over the pork, ensuring it's fully coated. Seal the bag, pressing out excess air.
  4. Refrigerate for at least 4 hours, or preferably overnight, turning the bag occasionally to ensure even marinating.
  5. Preheat oven to 325°F (160°C).
  6. Lightly spray a medium roasting pan and a wire rack with nonstick cooking spray. Place the rack in the pan.
  7. Remove the pork from the marinade, reserving the marinade.
  8. Place the pork rack on the prepared wire rack in the roasting pan.
  9. Roast for 15 minutes per pound, basting occasionally with the reserved marinade. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the meat; the pork is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 160°F (71°C). Remove from oven and let rest on a carving board for 10 minutes.
  10. While the pork rests, place the roasting pan on a stove burner over medium heat. Pour in the reserved marinade.
  11. Stir to scrape up any browned bits from the bottom of the pan.
  12. Heat until the marinade and pan juices are hot and slightly thickened.
  13. Slice the roast between the rib bones and serve, drizzling the pan juices over the chops.
