• xenforo has sucessfully updated our forum software last night. Howevr, that has returned many templates to stock formats which MAY be missing some previous functionality. It has also fixed some boroken templates Ive taken offline. Reat assured, we are working on getting our templates back to normal, but will take a few days. Im working top down, so best bet is to stick with the default templates as I work thru them.

I picked up a couple of pork roasts from BJ's Warehouse today on a whim as they were under $10.00.. As I am working tonight, I would like to cook them in the morning when I get home. My problem is that this is my first time cooking in my BSKD, and I'm looking for a simple, straight forward recipe for cooking this meat. We also have some chicken, but I'm pretty comfortable with cooking birds. The recipe section was not much help, and I would appreciate any suggestions you might have. I will post pictures of the results tomorrow evening so that you can see how things work out!

Do a search for stuffed pork loin. THere's been lots of conversation about that in the past.
 
Ok, I found a recipe in the files section that looks about what I was thinking. I will marinate the meat overnight in a mixture of homemade italian dressing, wocestershire sauce, salt, pepper, fresh garlic, and cayenne pepper. Then cook at approximately 225 degrees for 45-60 minutes per pound. Does this sound about right?

Marinade sounds good but cook to temperature, not to time, time can always be off because of temp drops or spikes.
 
for a loin I like to check it at the thickest end if one is larger than the other. I know I'm losing some quality moisture, but still have that old paranoia about pork from my youth. Sharp knife, little slit to make sure it is cooked. Then tie the end of with butcher's twine and cooler it, or let it rest before slicing. It's an art rather than a science. But your numbers look like a good place to start. Remember to take time to enjoy it. If you don't, quality Q is just too much work :D
 
Your safe at 160* in the thickest part of the roast. Tent it with foil for 1/2 hour then enjoy.
