APL Crown Roast of Pork

Options
I have been waiting for an occasion to try this recipe.  Currently on the egg, with a mixture of hickory and oak.  It brined for a few hours before going on.  Quite curious how this is going to turn out.  The cuts are filled with fresh Thyme.

    We usually do one on Thanksgiving. They turn out pretty darn good in my opinion. The biggest trick is don't over cook them or they wil be dry. Looking good thus far. Standing by for the finale.

    The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out.

    APL has some great methods. I really like the herb brush and board sauce for steaks. This cook looks fantastic!  Nice work :plus_one:

    Sorry about the poor focus on one of these.  This was a huge hit.  The glazed exterior was awesome.  Pulled at 140, to make sure it was not overcooked.  

    Bonus picture.  From last weekend.  Tea smoked mallard ducks.  Guy at work shot them, and I used the Raichlan recipe.  Turned out well.  Used cherry wood, and a smoking pouch with black tea, orange peel, rice, cinnamon sticks and star anise.
