tailc Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 I just got my new KK 23" and I'm beyond Excited!! I've been wanting to Smoke a Swineapple ever since I saw the video from Jeff "Smoked Meat With Jef". I must say it turned out perfect and extremely tasty!!! I highly suggest you give this a try!!! Attached are some photos 3
MacKenzie Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 tailc, welcome. That sure does look very tasty and unusual. Please tell us more about your KK, colour, setting, etc. Pixs are most welcome.
tailc Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Posted July 19, 2016 Thank you for the Welcome! I received delivery of my Terra Blue KK last Friday; I was like a kid in a candy store . Thanks to all the great post, unpacking and setting up was a breeze! As for the temp settings, I set it to 225 using a mixture of the CoCo and Coffee Charcoal; total cook time was about 4.5hrs to reach the desired internal temp of 160. I put the carved out pineapple in a blender, mix in some garlic, pepper, and salt; I used this to baste the Swineapple 3
MacKenzie Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 What beauty your KK is. Lovely. Never tire of seeing a new KK. Your neighbours are going to be jealous.
tailc Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Posted July 19, 2016 It's from a pork loin; I measured how deep the hollow pineapple was and cut off that length. I then cut up that piece into 5 and stuffed it. Make sure and season the pork before you stuff; I used a sweet BBQ rub.
KevinD Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 I'd guess at a pork loin roast sliced into smaller pieces to go into the pineapple... Sure does look good!
tailc Posted July 19, 2016 Author Report Posted July 19, 2016 It really was great, only issue was there wasn't enough for everyone. I was experimenting and didn't want to risk dinner for everyone. As you can see in the photos I have the rest of the loin; BTY that turned out awesome too
CeramicChef Posted July 19, 2016 Report Posted July 19, 2016 @tailc - welcome to the KK Family! That's a beautiful KK and that Swineapple cook is the bomb! Congrats on the KK and kudos on the cook!
tony b Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 Welcome to the KK Family. Nice Terra Blue KK. Good job on that one. Liking the Swineapple idea.
Stile88 Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 Nice looking KK is gorgeous that cook is very interesting never done that with a pineapple will have to try that indeed

Aussie Ora Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 Welcome mate that is a nice KK I have seen those done before very interesting indeed your turned out teriffic Outback Kamado Bar and Grill♨
Steve M Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 The backdrop looks familiar. Are you in VA? Nice looking kk and welcome to the forum
tailc Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Posted July 20, 2016 Yes I am, Virginia Beach on Rudee Inlet.
Steve M Posted July 20, 2016 Report Posted July 20, 2016 I thought I recognized the inlet. Used to take my boat up that way. I took delivery last week on my 23" Terra Blue.
tailc Posted July 20, 2016 Author Report Posted July 20, 2016 Steve - The funny thing is we order ours on the same day. I actually was trying to purchase the one you got; I was on the phone with Dennis placing the order and as you made the purchase online he said someone from Virginia just purchased it, so I ended up with the other one It's definitely a small world!!!!! 1
Steve M Posted July 21, 2016 Report Posted July 21, 2016 That's funny. Probably confusing for the shipping department. I'm glad they had another Terra Blue.
