  1. I would make this recipe because I would have no idea how else to make it. I looks absolutely delicious! I love Costco too!

  8. My father recently passed away, but right before he did all his kids(5) gathered to say goodbye. This was the first time that all the kids had been together. Since my dad passed the kids have all vowed to have family dinners, this pork recipe would be great to share at our first family dinner.I am so excited to finally have the big family I always wanted =)

    1. So sorry to hear about your dad. How great that you are all getting together though. Family meals are a fantastic way to do that.

  11. I’m going to go buy one tomorrow! do we really need a coupon though? i can’t find it with the link provided

    1. It was on the home page…I’ll check again when I get to my destination. I would hate for you to miss out on the savings.

      1. i see where it says you can get $2.50 off, but it doesn’t look like a typical coupon…am i missing something?

  16. I don’t tweet, or I would certainly tweet about this!!! BUT I am a subscriber by email. I LOVE all the recipes you share!!! Please enter me in the contest! I LOVE Costco! I could easily go broke there. Not because they’re expensive, but because they have so many really NEAT things. It’s hard to have self-restraint sometimes in there. 😀

  20. Hi! I’m an email subscriber. I think this would be great with the Fire Roasted Vegetable Blend with Balsamic Butter Sauce (which just happens to be a Kirkland product from Costco – 3-1 lb bags). Absolutely fabulous. 🙂

  25. This looks awesome and I’d love to try it. Anything with pork, apples and sweet potatoes is great in my book. Costco is one of my favorite places! I’m glad you discovered it!! I’m already a subscriber.

  28. Our family tradition is to serve pork and sauerkraut every New Year’s Day with my mom, dad, sister and her family, my aunt and uncle and my family. My mom, sister and I always like just a little pork with our sauerkraut and mashed potatoes, finding the pork usually too dry, while my husband and son won’t touch the kraut. This recipe might solve the dilemma for both sides: nice, juicy pork that is an equal showstopper to the sauerkraut! I am an e-mail subscriber. Thanks for the contest!

  29. Simple roasting with simple spices like garlic, salt, and pepper. It is so flavorful on its own, it does not need much.

  34. I guess the nearest Costco to me is a little over 100 miles, so I’ll have to request this cut of meat at my local grocery store. How big was the rack you cooked?

  35. Okay, duh. I just read over the entire recipe and saw how big your cut of meat is. Sorry about that – grandkids are here…

  40. We have Friday dinner with our best friends each week. They are phenominal cooks and create almost all of our meals. I will make this recipe to treat them to a delicious meal.I am an email subscriber

  45. I would make a roast pork in the crockpot with potatoes and carrots and then use leftovers for BBQ pork.

  46. Well … I’m vegan so I wouldn’t use pork but … I’d use the Costco gift card to buy a ton of veggies and make a great dinner. Does that count? 🙂 Thanks for the opportunity!

  49. I currently have a rack of pork in my freezer on your recommendation and I was waiting for your recipe since I have no clue how to cook it!

  52. I would make a beautiful rack of pork with roasted potatoes and apples! Sounds wonderful for Sunday dinner.

  57. I’m with Paula. I’d make this recipe, or invite my mom over to ‘help’ cook, because I’ve never cooked this cut of meat before. It looks wonderful though and I do love the meat from Costco. Heck, what’s not to love about most stuff from Costco:)

  59. I don’t know how I would do it, but I love using a dry rub when I roast meat. Probably rosemary and garlic, and roast it with red onion, potatoes, and apples.Your recipe sounds delish!

  63. When my in-laws come for an extended visit over the holidays, it’s not easy to come up with meals that all seven of us will enjoy. However roast pork is one of the few things we all enjoy and the rack of pork would be a great variation to serve them.

  65. I would love to try your recipe. I definetly like pork roast because it is so very tender and your pictures looked awesome.

  67. Apples/applesauce always go well with pork. I would cook the pork in the slow cooker covered in cranberries, apples, and onions.

  68. I LOVE Costco! It is my absolute favorite place to shop 🙂 I have never made a rack of pork so since your recipe sounds AMAZING, I would absolutely try it out. Thanks!

  69. I would use it for the upcoming holiday! I would probably just try your recipe because it looks wonderful!

  71. I am an agriculture and I currently teaching a meats unit. I would smoke it on our traeger and serve it at our “carnivore cookoff”, where each student has to prepare a meat dish and do a poster on the cut of meat, where it comes from on the animal, and different cooking methods for that cut.

  82. I subscribe to OAMM and love your recipes. I would make this for my Son when he comes home from the military (army) on his next leave. I would love the $26 card from Costco.Have a blessed day!

  83. What a beautiful Rack of Pork and a wonderful recipe. This is such an elegant presentation, we would just love this recipe. Thank you so much for sharing with Full Plate Thursday. Hope you are having a great week end and come back soon!

  93. Every year my family has a special dinner (without extended family) Christmas eve. Every year, the menu is different. Last year it was fondue, this year is pork. Normally I would cook a pork loin but a rack of pork? A must try. I might stuff it with a pecan cranberry stuffing and an orange marmalaide glaze over the top…Yummy!!

  96. I would love to make a rack of pork for my family for a Sunday supper. We don’t do those large, delicious Sunday afternoon meals anymore.
    Thanks!

  99. Sounds like a yummy Sunday dinner with the extended family over to visit with the twins! I love Costco!

  102. I’d love to try this recipe with a rack of pork! I hadn’t heard of that cut, either. I do, however, love Costco.
