Pecan Encrusted Pork Loin w/Cornbread Stuffing

[lcruzen]

Having a few folks over tonite for food, drinks, billiards, and hockey. Decided to get a little creative and stuff a pork loin with corn bread stuffing and a pecan crust.

First a roll cut to the pork loin.



Then hit the inside with rub and parm cheese.



Then the stuffing that consists of cornbread, scallions, roasted corn, rub, sage and chicken stock. I made it pretty stiff so I will hold up when absorbing the pork juices.



Then rolled and tied,



I hit the outside with more rub, parm, dijon mustard and chopped pecan. It is ready for the Weber Kettle. Gonna use lump with some hickory.



I'll get some finished pics when its done. Gonna do some ABT's and potato skins for appetizers also.

Couldn't get the finished pics posted last night with a house full but here they are.

On the Weber Kettle with lump and hickory.



The larger piece was enough to feed everyone and sent a nice hunk home with everyone also. Fresh off the Weber.



Sliced up and ready to serve. Stuffing held up real nice. No blow out at all and real moist.



And a final shot after plating. Served with garlic mashed and veggies. I ended up just making a country gravy for the mashed and tried it on the pork also.



Everyone loved it. Most ate it without the gravy and was nice and moist. Internal temp got up to 160o on me but wasn't a problem.

Thanx for looking!
