SMOKED PORK TENDERLOIN

Give your pork a sweet and smoky kick. This smoked pork tenderloin is marinated in a sweet honey and thyme mixture, and then smoked to perfection over aromatic applewood pellets.

STEP 1

In a large bowl, whisk together the apple juice, honey, Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub, brown sugar, thyme, and black pepper.

INGREDIENTS
  • 125 mL apple juice
  • 9 Teaspoon honey, warmed
  • 3 Tablespoon Traeger Pork & Poultry Rub
  • 55 g brown sugar
  • 2 Tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
  • 1/2 Tablespoon black pepper

STEP 2

Add the tenderloins to the bowl with the marinade. Turn the pork to coat. Cover the bowl with plastic wrap and transfer to the refrigerator and marinate for 2-3 hours.

INGREDIENTS
  • 2  (1-1/2 lb) pork tenderloins, silverskin removed

STEP 3

When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 225℉ and preheat with the lid to the pellet grill closed for 15 minutes. For optimal flavour, use Super Smoke, if available.

Insert the meat thermometer into the center of a tenderloin. Place the tenderloins directly on the grill grates, close the lid, and smoke until the internal temperature reaches 145℉, 1 to 2 hours. (The time will vary depending on the size of the tenderloins, your grill, and the weather.)
