Smoked Pork Loin

September 23, 2018, 05:12 PM

Bought a 5 lb. pork loin for $7.50. Decided to smoke it today.

Salted it last night before I went to bed. Peppered it before I put it on the grill.

Set it up the Weber Kettle with the SnS and added a few apple chunks and some cherry chips.

Got the grill dialed in and ran it between 225 and 250 until it reached 152 degrees.

I let it sit for 15 minutes then sliced and served. So Juicy. So Tender. Best pork loin I've ever cooked.

Thank you for this! I just got asked by a friend to smoke a pork loin they have. I’ve never done it before, it’s salt and pepper enough, or would y’all recommend Memphis dust or something else?

Salt and pepper is fine. I like to slice then and serve with some bbq sauce, but that's because in college, I would pig out on that combination at Sonny's BBQ up in Athens GA, when I went to visit my best friend on game weekends.

Just don't smoke it past 140 IT. Carryover cooking will take it to 145. I quit smoking them 20 years ago as the consensus then was to smoke pork to 165, and it was like slicing and eating cardboard. At 145 I love them again...

Cut a slit length wise in the loin. Stuff it with fresh de-seeded jalapeño slices and cream cheese. Fold it back up and wrap with bacon. Sprinkle Tony’s all over. One of the best pork loins you’ll have….👍

Looks perfect! Been a while since I did one of those. Thanks for the inspiration.
I sometimes lay a couple slices of bacon across the top length wise. Depends if I have any or not really.

It was before my time, and I read the whole thing without noticing the dates. Glad you bumped it, intentionally or not!
