Stuffed crab loin

Marc from IL

This turned out great! Stuffed with crab meat. I was going use lobster but at the last sec went with crab.
I seared it at 700, 2 min per side then Let egg cool down to 375 then indirect for about 35 min. Perfect.

WOW!! I have to admit, when I saw the topic title, I went in thinking "didn't even know crabs had loins..."

That really looks fantastic..let's call it "Surf IN Turf". YUM.

Awesome! Did you sear top and bottom or was it four sides? Also, how did you get your BGE from 700 down to 375 and how long did it take and where was the meat during this time?

Nice job! Is there anything else is in there beside the crab?

Top and bottom sear then pulled of.I put the plate setter in and with in 5min it was down to 350-400. I though it was going take a while to bring back down, when I put the plate setter in that keep the heat down

That is a good looking piece of meat and looks cooked to perfection. Did the crab meat impart much flavor at all?

Mike, no much at all, the crab meat was great balance with the beef I was suprised how well it worked with beef.

Marc, I was always worried about putting the platesetter in at these cold temps once the egg is up to a temp like you're talking about. Have you ever heard of a platester cracking?

Way to go, Marc! Creative and it looks awesome when served. You did well!

Thanks for the warning. Will keep the PS in the house until I need it. I'm surprised after yesterdays temps it mine didn't crack.
