Hi all, I looked at the archives, but really didn't help. I have a 10.5lb crown roast for Christmas day. The only recipe I found was in Smoke-n-Spice (creole crown roast), looks good but any other comments/suggestions/whatever is greatly appreciated. Thanks to all and have a great and safe Christmas and New Year Holiday.[p]Keep smokin, Dana

    YB,[p]Hi Larry, I know your crown roast's very well from Eggtoberfest's (very, very good). I purchased a 10.5lb roast. My wife is making the stuffing in the oven from Giadia De Laurentiis (Everday Italian). Question: should I egg indirect with plate-setter/drip-pan at 300? I will have no stuffing inside, so I'm a little concerned. Thanks for all the help, and have a great holiday![p]Keep smokin, Dana

    BGE Pit Crew,
    Indirect with plate-setter/drip-pan at 300 is the way to do it.Dana the main thing is to take it of the egg when the thick part of the roast reaches 145.

    BGE Pit Crew,
    You are missing an important aspect of cooking a crown pork roast. The center filler is very important to the overall taste of the roast.[p]Either the pork adds taste to the filler or the filler adds taste to the roast.[p]We have tried most fillers to include, rice, stuffing, cornbread, Italian sausage, etc.[p]Our family prefers hot Italian sausage. It gives a distinct taste to the pork.[p]Good luck & let us know how it turns out.
