    Arkansas Egghound,
    Check out the link below for Ravenhaus method of doing pork loin. I have used this twice with wonderful results. The last two times I cooked a loin I left out the preserves all together and just covered with bacon and Dizzy Dust and used lots of apple wood for smoke. These, too, were excellent.[p]http://homepage.mac.com/ravnhaus/BBQ/4.24.02ploin.html

    Arkansas Egghound, another alternative is to go the stffed route (ala Mr. Toad) but use coarse grain mustard, spianch and feta cheese as the stuffing.

    I do the Mr. Toads recipe very often, except I make the following changes. I use fig perserves on the bottom loin, Orange marmalade on the second layer, soak the fruit in rum, and a rub called sweet sensations from the Smoke and Spice cookbook(new one) on page 81.
    This will take your taste bud's for a ride, and I serve a Pinot Noir to serve with it.

    Arkansas Egghound,[p]Is this a bone-in roast? Looking like a row of pork chops all attached? If so, some of the recipes below might not be appropriate - one that IS a fantastic cut but which I haven't been able to find often around here any more.[p]Lee

    Arkansas Egghound,
    I have cooked pork loin several times and have never had a failure. Pork loin seems to be made to be cooked on an egg. I tried Mr Toads recipe and variations of that recipe. Your can't go wrong. I have gotten lazy a few times and put the pork loin in the egg without doing anything special except add some wood to give it a smoked taste. These come out great also. The trick is to cook it to an internal temp between 140 and 150. 160 seems to dry out the meat. Hope this helps.

    Arkansas Egghound,[p]I'm probably too late if you did it yesterday, but this was one we did not long ago and it turned out GREAT! The sauce is particularly interesting...the lemons really give it a wonderful flavor and quite a zing![p]QBabe
