Pork crown roast over the inverted Vortex

SMOKE FREAK · Jun 26, 2016

The pork...

The setup...
Inverted vortex with lump plied all around the outside...Chunks of cherry for the smoke...
A foil pan blocks the center to direct airflow to the outside...
And a few lit coals on opposite sides of the V...

The pork...Trimmed, tied, and seasoned...On top of the V ready for indirect cooking...

Temp ran a bit higher than I was hoping for...

And this is the result...

Pork in for a rest and a pan of garlic parmesan taters takes it's place over the V...

When the spuds are done I lose the V and shove all the coals to one side to roast the asparagus...

And plated with some mushroom gravy made with the pork drippings...

That's it...Thanks for lookin at my cookin...

That's a bunch of my favorite things all on one plate nice work!! I'm super hungry now and there is no way breakfast is going to be anywhere near that good.

Very nice! Mom keeps asking about crown roasts, guess I'll need to put that one on the to do list.

Great use of the Vortex. That's a good reminder of the multiple uses of the Vortex - besides the excellent wings it produces :-D

Nicely done

That is one fine looking vortex meal. The potatoes look to die for.

Never seen that done before, very cool!

oh man that is a whole bunch of good stuff. I think I have only had one crown roast before, my MIL made it and it was delicious. I think about how good it was sometimes. But I think yours and the sides would blow hers away. Looks really good.

Parmesan garlic potatoes

This is my wife's recipe and she makes it better than I do...But she has the ability to follow a recipe...I don't...

2 lb. russets thin sliced
XX c. grated Parmesan
1.5 c. heavy cream
1 sprig fresh thyme (dried will work fine)
2 cloves garlic chopped
1/2 t. nutmeg
black pepper

Heat the cream with thyme, garlic, and nutmeg
Layer potato slices overlapping a bit
Pepper potatoes. cover with cream and parm shreds
Repeat layers till all taters are used...
Bake uncovered 45 min @ 375 till top is browned.

Try this...It's VERY good...
