Mesquite Country Jalapeño Dip Stuffed Pork Loin
Mesquite Country Seasonings sent me a couple of samples of their rubs and dip seasoning and included the following recipe. Typically recipes that accompany samples have not always been the best, either too complicated or unexciting for my personal taste but this was certainly an exception on both counts. First off it is super simple, falling into the Cooking-Outdoors category of recipes and it requires bacon, so two wins there. The idea of stuffing a Pork Loin with a Jalapeño dip intrigued my curiosity and I gave it a go.
The two seasonings I used: Texas Jalapeno Dip Seasoning and Mesquite Country Seasoning “For the Real Taste of Texas”. Ready to hit the grill!
Grilled on the Island Grillstone.
I could have used another piece of bacon here, oh well!
This recipe was a wonderful treat for my family!
“Mesquite Country Seasoning” is a great blend of garlic, chili powder, cayenne pepper and other seasonings all coming together in a flavorful rub with a slight bite.
