I've heard from some ol'timers around here that rubbin' cheap yella mustard over the meat before adding your rub to hold the seasoning to the meat works great. Has anybody done this and if so did you like it or what works best.
 
well, if you heard it from the old timers........then why ask.......

I slather ALL things pork in yellow mustard prior to applying my rub. Havent had an unsatisfied customer yet. Make sure to take some before, during, and after pics of your loin and post em.

As long as we're on the slathering subject, I'll mention the mayo on birds again. I use yellow mustard on all my pork (except bacon) sometimes but not always on beef. And mayo on poultry every time.

I don't bother with it personally. Never had trouble with the rub sticking to the meat and if since it doesn't add flavor, I figure why bother with the extra step.

If you choose to do it and it gives you a product you are happier with than by all means do it.

With all this stuff, try things out and see what works best for you.
 
I did recently did my first pork loin and coated it with yellow mustard before applying the rub. Never tasted the mustard when the meat was done and the rub adhered really well.
 
I add a little beer, usually something not too light like Dos Equis or Killians Red to the mustard, with a little brown sugar, and a touch of cayanne or hot sauce. Not sure if it makes a difference, but I never have leftovers.

Honestly I don't use the mustard on uncured pork, But It can be done with desired results.Give it a shot.

Some like it some don't! Do what works for you.
