Texan, The best place to post that thread is in the "Caterings and Large Group Gathering" Forum. Shoot if it warrants it, I'll even make it a sticky post.
Going to try this tonight/tomorrow...what is the best temp to try and keep the smoker at? (and about how long should it take?) I have the same, a 9 lb loin.
Between 225* and 250*. 225* would be better though. Don't worry about the time, worry about temperature. Smoke to 155* and foil.
If time is a big deal though a ball park idea is 4 to 6 hours.
I know I said in an earlyer post I wasent going to cook this weekend, well, this recipie has been stuck in my mind since I joined. I followed Dutches recipie and cooking methods to a tee and this really was outstanding! Especially that sauce!
The only thing I did different was pull the meat off at 155. My questions are:
What does Dutch mean by "Tent the meat with foil"?
I pulled the meat off the smoker at 155. I let it rest for 10 min and when I checked it again it was 145. I thought the meat temp rises after it sits.?
That's too funny. Sauce sounds awsome. Not too strange really, have used jams and jellies for sweet 'n' sour sauces before. Definitely want to try this. Thanks Dutch.
I know Dutch's recipe's for pork loin, sausage stuffed and the one with Mahogany sauce have been on here for quite a while with spectacular results. We finally tried both out, with 2 butts and a few slabs of ribs. Dutch....the whole neighborhood thanks you. Here are some pics of the cook.
I use both in mine, but I'll let you in on my little secret (already disclosed in the rub topic). Sumac. When you use sumac, it mellows out both of those ingredients. It seems to complement both powders because it's on the sweet side but still has similarities to the flavor profiles of both of them.
It worked great for my Boston butt.
If you PM me with your address, I'll send you some for you to try. I'd be interested in an outside opinion.
