I smoked our first pork loin this past weekend on our Traeger following your video and it did not disappoint! It was so juicy and tender. My family said it was the best loin they’ve ever had!
I just smoked my first tenderloin following your method, and I have to say this was the best tenderloin I’ve ever ate! This recipe was so easy for me to follow, and the temperature was spot on for a perfect cook!
Been using a Weber Kettle for 40 years.....Didn`t figger I had the time (what with fishin and such to occupy my days off), to truly learn the art of true BBQ. But now I do and I have a Traeger on the truck to be here Monday. I need all the help I can get and I like the way you deliver...Thanks buddy.....

Great video. I love smoked pork loin. I have one in the freezer and can't decide if I want to cook it now or on Valentines Day. I smoked a meatloaf today on my camp chef and it was so delicious. Keep smoking!
THANK YOU!! I just uploaded a Pork Tenderloin video and cooked it to an internal temp of 145 degrees too. Apparently some folks still believe you have to cook it to 160 degrees, but I disagree.
Just got done smoking a pork tenderloin yesterday with hickory and cherry wood and it came out fantastic! I used my own rub with garlic, onion powder, smoked paprika, sage, a little bit of cayenne powder, coarse sea salt, and brown sugar. I did mine at 225 for 3.5 hours with a meteater probe till it was 145 degrees and it was very very good.
Just got a traeger for Christmas. Made some venison burgers last weekend and they were phenomenal compared to a gas grill. I was nervous to cook the pork loin I have sitting in the freezer, but after watching this video I know what I’m doing when I get home today. You’ve gained a subscriber🤙
That recipe came out great but I did change it up with just a little bit. I was followed up until the 275 degree change. The last 20 minutes I cranked it up to 375 with BBQ sauce to caramelize it. I finished it up with super smoke mode for 5 minutes. I then I let it sit on The Cutting Board wrapped in tinfoil and covered in newspaper for 20 minutes. The wife loved the surprise lunch break that she got

Dude, i freaking love you! Just got into smoking, researched so much and YOUR videos helped me learn about this art and make the right choice for my smoker. Got the Rec Tec Trailblazer. 1 cook so far and fell in love! Thank you my friend gonna be trying this next!
Quick tip for you Marc: You have a probe insert on the left side of your grill. You can use that and not have to pinch cables or lose the seal on your grill. Also, great video! I’m doing this tonight
I just bought a pellet grill and its my first time making anything on It. I decided to give this a try and its just about done. I didnt use any special seasoning as I don't do this often. After this first experience I'm planning on buying rubs and seasonings to start my weekly grilling.
Great looking perfectly cooked Pork Loin, tender and juicy, loved that you kept it simple, without a bunch of rubs and sauces. Nicely Done. Thanks for sharing. 😎.
Hi Marc, I am new to the pellet grill scene and I am trying this as I type!! So looking forward to seeing how it turns out. Love your energy in the videos!
I'm doing one of these today, using your recipe (different rub--have to use what's on hand). One suggestion: it should almost go without saying, but you might want to mention to your audience that "if you're looking, you ain't cooking". They ought to minimize the amount of time the lid is open during the cook. (Unless they're making a video, of course)
Thanks for sharing, I did it just like you've done it on the video, it was damn good, now as I'm writing, I've prep my meat since yesterday with all the rubs and let it set, took it out earlier today, it looked and smelled real good, got about another hour to go, we'll find out...😀
Man I have an 8# pork loin in the fridge marinating since this morning. I’ve been looking up videos on how to smoke it in yours is exactly what I was looking for. I have a vertical pellet smoker and to get that added smoke flavor I have something called “Smoke Daddy Magnum P.I.G. Cold Smoke Generator” I can cook at 350 if I want and have smoke from that extra device as long as I want it in the cook. It complements my pellet smoker very well.
Thanks for watching, Josue! I'm delighted you found it! Sounds like it's gonna be a great meal (marinating all day, wow!) Don't forget to participate in my REC TEC 340 Give-Away...Happy Holidays!
I am curious what changed to where you can cook pork to a lower internal temperature than you used to be able to. 6:12 What's different 'nowadays'? I'm not following at all.
Trichinosis used to be a problem with pork in the past. It's a parasite that could in rare cases be fatal. Farm raised pork is not, anymore, considered a health issue. Cooking to a higher temperature would eliminate the parasite.
Thanks for watching an asking, Theresa! I recommend smoking your pork loin at about 220 degrees Fahrenheit should generate a cooking time of roughly half an hour per pound (so a 5-pound cut will cook in roughly 2 1/2 hours).
Nice video Marc and very well explained. I have a Traeger Texas Elite pellet grill which I bought a few years back at Costco. I do not get a good smoke taste from the pellet grill even using a smoke tube. I generally do everything on my Chargriiller Akorn Kamado or my Pit Barrel Cooker. Any suggestions?? I use Lumberjack premium pellets. Just subscribed!!!
Not in this video, but yeah, I've brined em before I smoked them and I've also sous-vide them and then finish it on the smoker, with a high temp Thanks for watching, Todd
Lol why don’t you just run the wire from the prope through the built in grommet on the side? That is a traeger isn’t it? I can see the hole in the side of the grill for the wire lol.
Can you use a pork loin cooked like this for pulled pork? I’m supposed to be smoking a pork butt for pulled pork at my sisters virtual graduation tomorrow. My mom said she bought the meat, and it’s a pork loin lol
Honest question... Why is it that some professionals say 225 degrees for two hours and then it's a perfect hundred and forty five degrees... Then other professional say 4 hours at 225 degrees in at the perfect hundred and forty degrees... How is this possible
Thanks for watching and asking! Here’s how I look at it…with a smoker at 225-250° F, it can take from one hour per pound (if you're lucky) to one and one-half hours per pound to cook, and maybe even longer depending on the size and fat content of the shoulder. When the pork shoulder reaches about 190°F, start checking it for tenderness with a fork. So, I recommend that you use a good thermometer, (I like Maverick) close the lid and smoke the pork until it reaches an internal temperature of at least 195°F…you can cook to 201°F if you like softer pork. Really, I don’t know why chefs and writers have such different recipes…but what I wrote is how I smoke
I still haven't figured out why people want to eat cold meat! It's still just as juicy if you cut it when you take it out, without the rest time. But, to each their own.
so..confused. you put it on grill at 225, say you'll leave it there for 2.5 hours with the plan to turn it up to 375 to finish, then you come back after only an hour and turn it to 300. Little confused....
Hope this helps... sorry for the late reply... This is the easiest way I know Serves: 4 Prep Time: 20 minutes Smoking Time: 2 hours 30 minutes Temperature: 275F Wood: Maple, Pecan or Peach Ingredients: 5-pound pork loin 2 ounces of olive oil 4 ounces of pork seasoning 1 tablespoon of brown sugar Instructions: 1. Preheat your smoker. 2. With a sharp knife crisscross the fat layer. Then brush on the olive oil. 3. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar with the pork seasoning. Then rub it into the pork loin. 4. Set it in the smoker and it’s done when the internal temperature is 145oF. It’s important not to overcook pork loin in this recipe. 5. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes.

Fat side down. That’s basically the most important part. All the other theatrics are bullshit, you can cook it all the way through until 140temp. Let it rest for 20min and you’re good. Also, please use stone ground mustard. That yellow hot dog shit is messy and it doesn’t impart any flavor. The 2nd trick is to let it marinate over night with mustard and seasoning. You’re welcome 👌🏼
I did this and was smoky, juicy,tender,but it had no flavor… low and slow is the only way to go! I watched this hype and thought Hugh maybe I wasn’t doing it as easily as I could , and replicated this process. MISTAKE #1 it was all the things ,but no flavor was imparted into the meat. Was real bummer too for an 11 lb. Pork loin for $45 US Dollars. What a bummer thanks for nothing guy. 😢
Marc you got a thumb down from me; any chef that doesn't mix his own rub is not worth watching ! Ah and so many commercial on your channel. It was like watching TV !
Great video. Will try this today.
A summary, at the end, of temps a cooking times would make the video even greater.

Thanks for the video. Just a side note, your smoker has a small hole on the side to run your thermometer wires through. 🙂

225 - 250F Thanks for watching, Ryan

I wish more people would show smoker recipes where you're only cooking a couple pound piece of meat. Like a meal for 2.
FYI there’s a small hole on the side of your Grill for your thermometer wire to go through beside your pellet box
so..confused. you put it on grill at 225, say you'll leave it there for 2.5 hours with the plan to turn it up to 375 to finish, then you come back after only an hour and turn it to 300. Little confused....
Hope this helps... sorry for the late reply... This is the easiest way I know
Serves: 4
Prep Time: 20 minutes
Smoking Time: 2 hours 30 minutes
Temperature: 275F
Wood: Maple, Pecan or Peach
Ingredients:
5-pound pork loin
2 ounces of olive oil
4 ounces of pork seasoning
1 tablespoon of brown sugar
Instructions:
1. Preheat your smoker.
2. With a sharp knife crisscross the fat layer. Then brush on the olive oil.
3. In a small bowl, mix the brown sugar with the pork seasoning. Then rub it into the pork loin.
4. Set it in the smoker and it’s done when the internal temperature is 145oF. It’s important not to overcook pork loin in this recipe.
5. Let it rest for at least 15 minutes. The meat is more tender when the juices stay put for a while.
I use half an hour per pound, as a point of reference. If you want to give it a little more flavor, brush the pork with my Smoked Bacon Flavored BBQ Sauce. If you want to give the pork a little more spiciness, add 2 teaspoons of cayenne pepper to the rub.
So 150 not 145
Fat side down. That’s basically the most important part. All the other theatrics are bullshit, you can cook it all the way through until 140temp. Let it rest for 20min and you’re good. Also, please use stone ground mustard. That yellow hot dog shit is messy and it doesn’t impart any flavor. The 2nd trick is to let it marinate over night with mustard and seasoning. You’re welcome 👌🏼
THANKS, Bro... I appreciate that and thanks for watching! :-D
