Doing a 5lb pork loin tomorrow! This will be my 2nd smoke. Any tips?

[Guest]

I did a search on the subject and found a TON of threads about this. Any quick tips I need to remember? From what I've read this will be a
low-n-slow smoke. I don't think I am going to use a rub or marinade on it. THANKS for the help.

I would try using Kevin Taylor's recipe reposted by Chris at this link: http://tvwbb.101inc.com/ultimatebb.cgi?ubb=get_topic;f=9;t=000015

Thanks Chris. It looks like it only took a short amount of time to cook that meat. About 1hr 45min for both. Is that correct? I wa planning on smoking this thing for a good 3-4 hours /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif I hate being a noob /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif THANKS as always!

Pork loin has no connective tissue like pork butt, so it does not require long cooking to make the meat tender. Cook at 250*F to an internal temp of about 145*F, then brown in a 500*F oven or directly over the hot coals for 5-8 minutes and you're set.

Chris
