What's Cooking?

What and how did you stuff it.  I have a big ole loin in the fridge awaiting it's final disposition.

[Gavin]

Stuffed with porcini, onion, Apple, spinach, garlic, thyme, rosemary, sage, and pork sausage. Have not tried before but based on Bon Appetit's prosciutto wrapped pork loin with roasted apples. Opted for  some on sale bacon instead.

Stuffed pork loins wrapped with bacon tonight.

Those look really nice.  Bacon will help keep those loins moist.  Merry Christmas to you sir and enjoy in good health!

Merry Christmas,

Today was ham and a nap. Tomorrow deep fried turkey and cold beer.

Merry Christmas all. Loin was great, better than ham, guests devoured,...but not a match for flavor of a rib roast....Good start to two weeks of decadence! Hope you that your bellies and your glasses are full always!

 'Twas the night before Christmas and all through the hills
 The kinfolk were drinkin' and tending their stills

 The longjohns were hung by the chimney with care
 No stockings were found, just underwear

 The children were nestled so high in their bunks
 Their quilts made of skins from rabbits and skunks

 Granny with her false teeth and gun on her knee
 Was waiting for Santa as she sat by the tree

 From out of the barn there arose such a noise
 We thought it was Grandpa drinkin' with the boys

 But what to my wandering eye should appear
 It was just cousin Cleatus in mama's brassiere

 And then from the rooftop we heard it at last
 Like the sound of thunder or a shot gun blast

 We have Christmas dinner, it's finally here
 Granny kidnapped Santa while we shot his deer

 Venison all covered with onions for stew
 And even old Santa enjoyed some too

 His belly was full when he walked out the door
 But he couldn't resist when we offered him more

 Well that's the story of our Christmas here
 Merry Christmas to all 'til the same time next year

The standing rib roast is in the oven becoming lunch, hopefully done in time.  The pork loins are waiing to go in the smoker to become supper at friends house.  And the picture of my grandson is just because he is so darn cute.  Lunch will be accompanied by pan seared Brussel sprouts with some balsamic and maybe a few dried cranberries,  and a corn pudding thing my wife put in the crockpot before she left for church.  I had to stay behind to make lunch, my son will be here in a cuple hours, and daughter and her family later.  Folks having your family around is the best present I could get.  God best all of you and MERRY CHRISTMAS.
