Got a recipe from the archives but needed a little guidance on the temperature to cook a stuffed pork crown roast as well as some idea of how long it would take.

The good old cook book says 400 for 3 or 4 hours but somehow that just doesn't sound eggish to me.

Thanks!

randomegger,
do not know if this helps but here is what i got in my files..


Pork, Roast, Crown, Richard

It is all YB's fault for teasing us with Eggtoberfest '04 & '05 and then giving us a taste at Eggtoberfest '06. Thank you again! Richard

1 15 Lbs. Pork, Roast, Crown, 24 Bones
*****Stuffing*****
3 Pkgs Uncle Ben's Wild Rice Mixture
2 Cans Water Chestnuts, Chopped, Coarsley
6-8 Scallions, Chopped and Sauteed
Dash Salt/Pepper & Cavender's Seasoning


1 Rack ready to roast!
2 Roast was slathered with cheap yellow mustard, Spice Island Lemon Garlic and Indian River Pepper Blend. Rested for about an hour.
3 Large BGE was set up indirect, drip pan w/water 3/4 way up. At 250°F placed the roast on the grid without the stuffing in the middle.
4 Had 3-4 pieces of apple and a handful of pecan chips for smoke. Brought the BGE to 325°F-350°F, Placed aluminum foil around tips of bones.
5 About 2 hours into the cook, stuffed the cooked rice mixture into the cavity, took about 3/4's of the batch. Saved the rest for later. Closed the BGE and went another 45 minutes until the internal temperature was 147°F.
6 Pulled, let rest normally 30-45 minutes, but this time, my first roast project, had so much going on that the roast was ready 3 hours before the guests were hungry.
7 SO, covered with aluminum foil and let sit on table in kitchen for the duration, never reheated in oven, just served with hot mushroom gravy. Worked out fine.
8 Placed little gold paper frills on the bones. Sliced 1 bone/chop per person was plenty.
9 None of this would have been possible without the kind help from Mr Crown Roast, Larry Ward, AKA "YB". Thanks Larry!!!
SIDES SERVED:
1 Apple Sauce, Pork Gravy, Asparagus Grilled, Portobello Mushrooms & Sweet Onion, cut in fork size pieces, placed in aluminum foil with little butter chicken boullion, s/p and teaspoon water wrapped tightly and placed on egg 30-45 minutes while roast is cooking. Dessert of choice, ours was three layer white cake with coconut frosting.

randomegger,

Use a probe thermometer and pull roast at 140 degrees. Three or four hours seems like a long time but the thermometer will tell if it is or not.
