Spinach Stuffed Porkloin:
1 each    Porkloin Rib Rack (4-5 lbs.) (see Note below)
1 cup      Creamed Spinach (see recipe)
1/4 cup   Seasoned Salt
2 tbsp.    Thyme-Leaf

Note: Have your butcher cut a bone-in rib roast from shoulder end of the loin. Have him remove the chine bones so that you will be able to slice slabs off for serving.

To Prepare the Spinach Stuffed Porkloin:
1. Place the porkloin on a cutting board, rib bones down. Use a long slicing knife to cut along the top of the rack of bones until the meat is almost separate from the ribs.
2. Turn the cutting edge of the knife upward and cut in a spiral, lengthwise to the center of the loin. If done properly, the meat should roll open like carpet.
3. Spread the creamed spinach over the entire surface of opened meat. Roll it up like a jellyroll and rest it up on the bones.
4. Season the outside surface with the seasoning salt and thyme.
5. Place in an open roasting pan and cook at 325 degrees until internal temperature of 150 degrees (@ 1 1/2 hours).
6. Remove from oven and let it rest for 15 minutes before you slice it.

ENJOY!!!!
