Bone-In -Loin smoke. With Q/View

[hemi]

First Bone-in for me. Turned out Moist for a change. I been cookin' them to death. Old School Pork Scare I guess.. Wanted somethin besides turkey this year. Thanks for supplying the free advise. I smoked it with charcoal and oak that my neighbor was kind enough to supply.
Guess I am gonna invite him over to eat dinner .

gettin' a bed of coals


pre-heating the oak blocks


after an hour [about]

forced steam for the last half-hour

and the finished stuff.

The wife has dentures so the bark is a bit tough for her so I made a steam attatchment for her.

Happy Thanksgiving !! Hemi

Man that looks really good and juicy too. I have smoked one of those and they are really good too. You said you made a steamer or forced steam can you explain that please.

Hemi, that looks great!! I do boneless loin all the time and never thought to grab a bone-in loin. Like that pull back on them bones-how did you prep your loin? That loin would look great with some Mahogany Glaze on it!

Thanks for the replys folks . Tommorow I will take a pic of the steamer
box. It is simply a stainless steel box or rather a tank that will hold about 3 qts of water or juice that seals up . It has a ductle stainless or copper tube that plugs into it to carry the steam. I remove a plate just over the
smoke/heat flue from outta the firebox and set the steam box there in it's place. I wrap the meat in foil and stick the tube in with it. Works well but if U overdo it the meat will be about the same as boiled..[as in Hospital food] I ain't got a real good way to clean out the box so I just use water. before every cooking I will boil out the steambox.. Hemi.

I used a real simple rub of dried Jap peppers , Dried tomatoes, Sea salt
and a bit of black pepper. Wife likes it a bit mild so I always doctor it up on my plate. I used mainly oak for smoking with a few chunks of walnut
that I got left over from projects. What is that Mahogony Glase U mentioned? Thanx for askin'.. Hemi..

Thanks for posting! It looks really terrific! I'm cooking two stuffed loins this weekend and my butcher was trying to get me to do a "bone-in" instead...might have to try this with Dutch's Mahogany sauce in rasberry flavor.
