1st Pork Loin Crown Roast w/ pics
So I've been chosen to burn meat for my sis-in-law & best friend's anniversary party this saturday.
They've had everything I've ever cooked up so I wanted to try something different. Safeway had pork loin half back sliced on sale for $1.29/lb this week but it looked like the same cut of meat that the crown roast came from, butcher confirmed that but was all cleaned up for the night & told me to come back tomorrow and he'd have 2 ready for me. Well there musta been some sort of mistake cuz when the wife picked em' up it was only $11.93 for BOTH crown roasts! The sticker before club card use said $47! Sweet! Here's what I do'd to em' so far... Made a "cure" of: 4TBS TQ 1TSP Homemade chipotle powder 1TSP dried basil 1/2TSP crushed red pepper 1/2TSP crunched up rosemarry 2TSP chili powder 1TSP garlic granuals Lightly rubbed them and had about 4TBS of rub left Let them sit for 24 hours in the garage... relax, it's about 15* in there, and the hanging deer was gettin' lonely. Meat was @ 32.8* and smelled incredible. My plan was to give these a little bit of time to dry cure and then turn that into a mild brine so that it's not over salted. I dumped the last 4TBS of rub into enough water to cover the racks. Normaly I would bring the brine to a boil and let it steep to bring out the herbal flavors, but I wanted to try it cold and see what results I would get. And there they sit untill tomorow morning, I'll drain and rinse them and let them dry a bit before smoking. Thanks for lookin!

Yeah, it should be fun... It's dumping snow and the wind is supposed to pick up later today.
At least it warmed up from 10* to 20.5*

Alrighty!! It turned out pretty stinking good if I do say so myself!
I did not stuff it with anything for the reason that Landarc mentioned, I don't stuff turkeys either stuffing can't hit temp before the bird is done - over cooking it isn't an option! =) Ron, the TQ did make a difference in it... It gave it a little tiny bit of a ham'ish flavor but not too much, the color came out great too! The brine gave it nice flavor throughout and kept it moist, although if I were to do the same cut again, I would do it as a standing rib roast, it didn't have quite the juices running out that I know would normally be there in a whole uncut loin. Also I was kinda worried about it not hitting temp so I left it on the grill till 155 and then foil'd it and put it in a warmed up cooler with blankets for about 45 min before everything else was ready, that prolly contributed to it not being quite as moist as I wanted it. Here's some prono! Sorry for the crappy pics, everyone thought that I had drank too much eggnog with my picture taking for some BBQ forum... Phssshh! Whatever! They look a bit darker than they were... but the color comes from the spritz I hit em' with during the cook, the little bit of honey & soy sauce browns em' up real nice Thanks fer lookin! And thanks you to those who helped with ideas! I forgot to snap a pic before I dug in!

Nice job on those roasts, looks good. One more thing, if you would prefer the bones look less black, you can always wrap foil over them, lets em stay whiter.
