Hi everyone! Had a little fun today and a tasty dinner!
This is a recipe that I developed from scratch over the last few years though the rub is a recipe from a site called Smoked Meat Sunday.
Chop up a jalapeño pepper and mix it with 6 oz of cream cheese and half a cup of sour cream.
I sliced the pork loin twice horizontally almost the whole way through creating 3 “flaps” connected by a “hinge” at the back.
I then sprinkle rub in between the flaps and spread out the filling.
Fold up the loin and insert toothpicks to keep it from falling open.
I then wrap it with bacon to keep the filling from all cooking out.
On the smoker at 180 with a smoke tube filled with competition blend pellets and cherry wood chips for 2.5 hrs.
After 2.5 hrs I put it in a pan with about 1/4 inch of apple juice in the bottom and cover with tin foil. I then stick it in the oven at 275 until it hits 145 IT.
While it was in the oven I mixed up a batch of Bloomin’ Onion Petals using @gmc2003 recipe from his post Bloomin’ Onion - Kettle Style for the batter.
I then put the loin on the kettle grill at high heat for a few minutes to crisp up the bacon
Slice
And enjoy!
Thanks for looking! God bless…
