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,

I would say "are you out of your gourd", but that would be a really bad pun. A very different approach to pumpkin. Interesting idea. We do no see a lot of examples of smoking vegetables on this site.

Congrats on the spin.....

Thank you CS! It turned out great. After letting it sit for an hour cooling the rice finished cooking.

Thank you Jim. My wife liked your bad pun she said it was gourdeous.

I sure as hell wouldn't say no. Nice

Thank you! It turned out pretty tasty. I did need to add a little extra salt but other then that it was great.

Looks awesome

Thank you!
