Pork, Pineapple, and Pumpkin

in Pork
I got home a bit early today so I fired up the eggs. I cleaned a pie pumpkin and added a filling of 1/2 cup cream, 1/2 cup brown sugar, a bit of grated ginger, some cinnamon, S&P, and a few scrapes of fresh nutmeg. I put this on the egg at 375 and let it roll for about an hour (I didn't keep up). When it was tender I brought it in and scraped it all into a bowl and hit it with a stick blender. I adjusted the seasoning, then pit it back in some clay cookware and back on the egg. I wanted to let it rock along while I cooked my pork. 
The pork was simple - DP rub and grilled to IT of 150. I grilled the pineapple right along with it. The wife said she liked the pumkin - it wasn't too sweet.




Thanks for looking.

Large BGE & Mini Max for the wok. A few old camp Dutch ovens and a wood fired oven. LSG 24” cabinet offset smoker. There are a few paella pans and a Patagonia cross in the barn. A curing chamber for bacterial transformation of meats...
"Bourbon slushies. Sure you can cook on the BGE without them, but why would you?"
