OK, I'm getting my Dad an early Father's day gift of a Medium this weekend as a complete surprise to him. I'm informed he has acquired his favorite cut, a boneless rolled pork loin roast, for the holiday meal, which he is planning to do his favorite way, on the rotisserie on his gasser. Any ideas for this cut on his new Egg that will blow the rotisserie away?
He's very set in his ways, but he's been very happy with the products from my Egg when he has visited, so I think he will be a convert : )
Thanks for any help!

    Basscat, I would cook it indirect at approx 325°, minimal smoking wood (pecan, apple), until internal temp reaches 145°(this is open to many interpretations), pull from the Egg and let sit 15-20 minutes before carving/slicing.

    Basscat,
    If you butterfly that (or I call it jelly roll it) you can stuff it. I season the inside of the meat with a rub of your choice, and take port soaked cranberry rasins, spinich, toasted pecans, garlic slivers and add blue cheese crumbles. Rollit it up and ties it off with butchers twine and cook indirect with apple wood to an internal temp of 140* to 145*, take off, wrap in foil and rest for 10 minutes & serve. It's a keeper. Joe

    Basscat,
    I cook these often for sandwich meat. (made one Sunday)[p]Just thinking, your dad probably cooks pork loin roast untill very well done, right? If he gets any slightly pink pork that could turn him off. I propose that you go for 160 internal. The pork roast will still be tender and moist.

    A thousand times better than impaled and gassed.

    Clay Q,
    No, he's a medium to medium rare guy, so we won't have that problem! I think we'll be OK with Rumrunner's 140. Thanks for the help. I'm off to the area Egg dealer in a few minutes : )[p]

    Thanks for the help, guys! I think I'll stick to Rumrunner's simple plan for this time, but that stuffing idea is definitely going on the to-do list! I'm delivering the Egg tomorrow afternoon, I'll report back on results.[p]Basscat[p]
