Rack of pork

Was at my local Costco yesterday and noticed something new in the meat department. They had 5 or 6 bone racks of pork. Guess it's basically the equivalent of a beef standing rib roast.

I was intrigued by this cut. I guess it would be good to smoke? Or would it be better grilled?
 
I have never smoked one but I did grill one a few weeks ago. It was good as pork roasts go but you have to cook them to medium unlike beef which I like rare.

Make sure the chine bone has been cut.

this helps when cutting it into chops later.

my preferred method is to brine the whole roast, rub and smoke to 135*, rest and cut into chops, grill and glaze.

the chop in the top center of this picture was done using this method with a jerk dry rub and glaze.
 
Dang J,

What did you eat first on that plate? Be honest... even if it was a chip.

I think I would freeze up, not knowing what to do first.

Great job... Gotta try that technique for the chops.

its a bit involved but I developed it after trying some "double smoked" chops out at a restaurant that I really enjoyed. I haven't played with the technique much (once or twice), however I trust it for producing consistent results.

if you want to try the jerk glaze the recipe is here

don't recall, but I'm sure the last thing I ate would have been the rice
