How Y'all are!
Since my last bradley adventure turned out so well ( 19+# turkey).
In my world of smoking and grilling "I have done so much, with so little, for so long...I now attempt the impossible, with absolutely nothing".
That was before my OSB, now I have the tools to go beyond and am excited about it.....smoked food every week!
This time I am doing a "bored and stroked" pork loin.
I made a boring tool out of 1/2" copper pipe, one piece 16" long, another 4" long for the handle, and one copper 1/2" T.
Bored the center out of a 1/2 thawed pork loin and have in basic brine of
1/4 cp salt
1/2 cp sugar
1/4 cp vinegar
to 1Qt of water
chopped cilantro and some lime juice.
Will leave overnight
I plan on stuffing the inside of the loin with a compound butter and mushrooms, using a couple of pieces of the "bore" and toothpicks to plug the ends. ( the rest of the plug is for dog treats).
In the morning I will rub (stroke) it down with some salt and pepper with lime zest.
Neat idea! Looking forward to the results... (and pics!)
Interesting! Don't forget to ROLL it on schedule!
Heck, you need to show pics of all that .....
boring and strokin' included.
Ok, I will try to get some pics this time.
It seems like I get in this "focus groove" on the meat and forget all else for a while. ::)
Sounds like a unique way to prepare a pork loin. I may try this.
well, I got er done. ;D
I have pics, but am unable to see any way here to upload to this site. I am not the most pooter literate person.
any help here would be appreciated.
All in all it turned out fabulous.
My only suggestion if you try this is to use a bigger bore, the 1/2" was good, but I would have liked a bit more stuffing room inside. 3/4" next time.
I can see this working well for large cuts of meat as well, just bore a few holes instead of only one.
Try this link for your pics!
