Has anyone used Chutney of various flavors in roast or poultry? A friend gave me a pint of peach and raisin chutney and it looks like a good fill for a pork loin, or even a lamb roast. Any ideas/recipes I can use for it?

    Char-Woody,
    You have suggested your own recipe in your post. You could simply replace the fillings in Mr. Toad’s Pork Loin with Chutney. Give it a try and let us know.[p]Happy Grilling,

    Char-Woody,[p]I've used different chutneys in Pork Loins quite a bit, in fact I think that there is a recipe I submitted in the submitted recipe section, I'll check here in a bit.[p]I take a pork loin (not tenderlion) and fillet it open like a jellyroll. This takes a bit of doing to get it nice and thin but its worth it. Then, I smear the chutney on teh loin and roll it all back up jelly roll style. I tie it with a few strands of butchers twine to hold it all together and voila, chutney rolled pork loin. I also smear the outside of the loin with some olive oil and sprinkle some misc. spices on it or make a paste of olive oil and spices and rub it onto the loin before cooking.[p]I cook mine direct, seems like indirect just doesnt get a bark on the meat and it seems mushy to me. I like the outer crust a bit firmer. Times escape me now, I would guess about 2 hours at 350, turning occasionally.[p]Good luck with it, chutney in a pork loin is good stuff.[p]Troy[p]PS - link for some apricot chutney is included

    Char-Woody,[p]Why not butterfly a bird, break the two membranes on each side under the skin, and stuff the bird under the skin and against the meat? I've been really enjoying playing with the possibilities of stuffing birds this way.[p]Spin
