Never been a fan, but

Postby bondobill » Sun Nov 19, 2017 8:50 pm

I picked up a 5 lb boneless pork loin yesterday while I was looking for a chuck roast .
Made up a mean pot roast yesterday in the oven, so today it was on to the pork loin.
Plan was to put it on the pellet but Mother Nature had a different idea. It's been blowing around 30 mph all day and started rainy like a sum of a beach around the time I wanted to start the loin.
Ended up putting the loin indirect on the kettle using Kingsford hickory Briguets.

Marinated it in some sort of Jamaican sauce :dont:
Will let you know how it comes out

We buy those and slice them into chops and tenderize for my wifes chicken fried pork chops. Really an economical way to get a good piece of meat for frying. Any other way I tried it it ended up being dry due to the lack of fat content. :dont: :dont: :dont:

It turned out not bad. :D
Cooked the loin to 140 IT.
The sauce went very well with the pork. I was looking to change things up from what sauce I usually use. It was a Caribbean sauce, not a Jamaican. :dont:. A buddy from NC sent me a bottle better then a year ago. Pretty good stuff, would bet it would go really good with yard bird.

Made up a batch of cheesy Scalloped taters to go with the pork.

No Yukon express yet. Did get about a week of cold weather bout 3 weeks ago. Had maybe 3" of snow.
What we got now is the Pineapple Express. Yesterday was around 43 and got a couple inches of rain. Today we got 60 and freezing level going go up to 9000 feet. Lots of snow in the mountains. Going be lots of snow melt and the rivers are just below flood stage without the melt. Glad I live on a hill :cheers:

Exactly what I do with the loin as well, and it's perfect for that. The loin chops already packaged up are pricey and almost good for nothing special. Little bitty lean pork steaks cooked hot and fast to about medium. Pound em, batter and fry em and oh boy, you've got a winner!

BB: this looks wonderful! They can turn out pretty tasty if you go H and F with them. If you're not one of those that believe that all pork need be cooked to death, i.e. well done, pork loin is surprisingly juicy considering the lack of marbling.

**Side note for those that may not know: the danger involved in pork lies on the surface, same as beef. The wee beasties we really need be concerned with are primarily on the surface and are killed fairly easy during cooking, but, this is with all meat.. Internal worry would come from parasites; trichenella. The CDC did a study some time back and in a 4 year span, only 90 cases were reported. Only 22 of those were related to pork. An even smaller number of THOSE were reported as raw or undercooked. Trichinellosis is a reportable illness, just like yellow fever, etc.. In short, chances of nabbing anything eating pork on the medium to med-rare side are just as risky as beef.. :)

Always heard that all the bad guys (wee beasties) were on the surface and they are sent to never never land when cooked so a rare or blue steak is free of the bad guys. But what about when the meat goes through a grinder for something like a hamburger? Are the bad guys mixed in and should the burger be cooked throughout? Serious question because my bride of 44 years, 5 months, 7 days, and 17 hours and I like our burgers medium to medium rare.

I will be 100% honest on this and say that the risk of anything happening with ground meat is increased. However, out of your 44 years, 5 months, 7 days, and 17 hours have you had any problem brought on by eating a medium/med-rare burger?
I will definitely say that if quality control were HALF as good on our regular merchandise items as it is on our food, we wouldn't have to worry about them darn Wal-Mart returns. Lol!
