Stuffed.... Tenderloin!

[pignit]

I've been away from my computer and haven't been able to upload any pics for the forum so I'm going to do a little catching up. This is one of my favorite things to do with a tenderloin. Stuff it. This is a tenderloin and not a loin...... There are two to a pack and you can't see the mark down price in the pic... it was 5 bucks. What a deal.

Lay it open......

This thing was so funny. I didn't have anything to tie it up with so Red made me up some twist ties with foil. Worked great and looked like a caterpillar. I laid a piece of bacon over the seam before I tied it up... or I guess I should say... twisted it up.

Out of the smoker at 155 internal.....

O man.... I love these things. Stuffed it with provolone, baby spinach... black olives... and what really sets it off when it hits the ol taste buds... feta cheese.

For those of you who think a tenderloin is too small to stuff..... think again. These things are awesome. Give it a try.


Thanks for checkin out my QVIEW!

And then I think I gave you credit atleast to the wife about stuffing a loin with baby spinach and some feta cheese. They ingrediance do work really well together but the main ingrediant that you missed on was the rub you needed the Gates Rub from Jay "The Dude" gave me. But it really tasted good to.

[dirt guy]

How'd I miss this earlier? Awesome job!

 

[mama's smoke]

So you pulled it out at 155 internal. At what temp did you smoke it and approx. how long did it take? Looks wonderful

 

[pignit]

I smoke these things between 225 and 250. Start checkin temp in an hour and a half. They usually take right at 2 hours.

 

[pineywoods]

I missed this the first time around it looks awesome and like something I need to try

 

[pignit]

This was right up there with my favorites. They smoke up really fast and you can put whatever you want in them. The feta and provolone along with the black olives and baby spinach is my favorite. The feta does it with the pork. I have some raspberry chipotle sauce that is just a tad sweet with a bite to it that is really good with it. If you haven't tried these things you need to.

That looks sooooo delicious! I might just have to pull one of my pork tenderloins out of the freezer now and do something like that!!! *Drool*
