The day before, I scored the rind in a diamond shape, then mixed all the ingredients with oil and rubbed it all over the pork. I have a homemade charcoal grill. The heat comes from the side. I grilled it in foil for two hours and then for about two more hours without. The meat was very juicy and tender, and the rub gave it a delicious flavor.
