you mentioned in an earlier post that you had done a stuffed pork loin. I have a 4 lb pork roast and was looking for a idea on stuffing, maybe carving it out flat and rolling it back up, any ideas for the stuffing?
I assume it would have to be thin, Mrs. rye wondered if pepperoni and cheese would be good inside??????

    howdy Slyrye!
    You might find if you ask the forum instead of one person, you will get a wide variety of answers. Offering suggestions before Fidel answers might be considered bad karma...

    Beers to you!

    Nah dude, I don't care. Chime in, I'm no expert, I've never even stayed in a Holiday Inn Express.

    I've done a few of them - your imagination is really the limit to the stuffing.

    I just do a simple butterfly, split it about 75% of the way through like a sub roll. If I am putting in a heavy stuffing I may carve out a sliver of meat, then stuff it and tie it up.

    Some others have done the fancy knife work and done them more like a jelly roll. I lack the patience to do one that looks pretty.

    I personally think pepperoni and cheese would be great.

    I usually do some sort of cheese and or sausage. I've never done one with a bread based stuffing, though that sounds good as well.

    By the way, I checked UPS and it appears a box full of flavor departed Chantilly yesterday and is headed for my doorstep in the morning.

    Thanks for the quick service (as usual).

    heee!
    Cheers to you mang.

    Not the kind of reminder I had in mind!!
    Come on in. The rubs are fresh...all ground within the past two weeks!

    Anyways, I like caramelized onions/garlic, mushrooms and cheese as a stuffing. Maybe a little bread as a binder, but not critical. The pepperoni wouldn't be bad, but might overwhelm the subtle taste of the pork.

    Have fun! Oh....if you have a long filet knife, you can often cut a slit through the center of the roast (from one end but not coming all the way out the other) without laying the whole thing open, then just shove the stuffing in and "stretch" the roast out with it.

    See wum sayin??
    Have a blast! I have a pork roast on tap too....but I think I'll get lazy and cut it into chops.
    Beers!
