Stuffed Cinderella Pumpkin

[TexasMuskrat]

Good evening y'all. I am smoking a first for me. I took some beef otalian sausage i made and browned it up 1lb worth, a yellow and red onion, mushrooms, carrot, chayote, wild rice, spinach, and sautéed them all up after browning the meat. I then added chicken stock and half and half and a cup of sharp cheddar. I did fresh sage, thyme, rosemary chopped and sautéed in butter. Mixed it all in a bowl. Gutted the pumpkin, hit with salt and pepper on the flesh and then stuffed everything inside. I capped it with another half cup of sharp cheddar and put the lid on it. I have the smoke rolling on the pellet pooper at 275. Going to smoke until the flesh is tender.

Kicked it up to 350. It's took a bit longer then I thought it would. I should have cooked the rice all the way through or cooked it longer. Otherwise it is tasty.

I forgot that I also put chopped pecans and dried cranberries into it as well

Thank you! It is a first for me but I now want to try to cook different things in a pumpkin on the smoker.

I like it , but you know me I am all about smoking / cooking a little strange outside the box.

Sounds and looks like a great blend of items,
