Personal
Notes: We are conservative on spices, so I eliminated the 1/2 t cumin and changed the smoked paprika to plain paprika. My pork loins were larger, so I cooked the first 35 minutes at 400 and then lowered to 350 for another 30 minutes. I also applied this to the thick pork loin chops from Costco and baked (uncovered) for about 60-90 minutes. I used the juice of one large orange and it made a nice little sauce to spread over the pork loin.
