Thanks to @Cen Tex's postings here I got some meat glue awhile back. Finally got a chance to try it out. I brined a couple pork tenderloins, then let them dry overnight. This morning I glued them together, head to tail, wrapped in plastic wrap, and back in the fridge. Did a rub of some sort we had in the pantry. Turned out really nice, cooked evenly throughout. Hard to tell from a cross-section cut that it was 2 pieces of meat originally. 
I needed a bit more glue along the edges, but for a first try I was pretty happy with it.



Also did some pizzas as well. We were celebrating my big guy's 10 year birthday and pulled pork pizzas were at his request.

Also including a shot of him with tickets to tomorrow night's Phillies game. He's pretty excited about getting to go out on a school night. And I'm looking forward to it as well. It's just me and him going.

    I like the picture of your big guy the best (my oldest is 11 :) ) The completed tenderloin pic is pretty sweet, too!

    @DMW

    As always your food looks outstanding and is in a league of its own my friend. Hope you and the big guy have a great time. Its always nice to see folks spending quality time with the young ones. Hope that little fellow enjoys the game and has a very Happy Birthday.

    Thank you brother. I try hard to treat every one with respect and kindness. I find that by doing so that it is returned to me in kind. Again thank you my friend.

    That's cool.  Thanks for sharing.  Was in Philly visiting two weeks ago visiting friends, Wilmington, DE actually.  Went to the Nutter Museum and John's Roast Pork.
    I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

    Your boy looks pumped! I played ball with Marlon Byrd! The guy in the pic right above your boys head. Good looking tenderloin. I'm going to try some of this meat glue.
