I saw a promise of a recipe earlier.  I hope you don't think pictures of ingredients helps amateurs like me

The loin looks great.  I'll be doing one this weekend.    How long did it take to get to 145 with a smoker temp of 225???
I will have the recipe up shortly - it's really easy

It took about 2 hours.
 
Ok here is the sauce recipe. It's really easy - I didn't have a lot of time so came up with something quick...

1/4 cup chicken stock

1/3 cup honey

3/4 cup applesauce

1/2 tsp fresh ground black pepper

1/2 tsp cinnamon

Pinch of thyme

Add everything but the thyme to your pan & mix well.

Simmer at a medium heat just until the sauce starts to thicken slightly.

Move pan off burner.

Add the pinch of thyme & stir in.

Your sauce is now ready to go - enjoy!

That looks great, I bought an 8 lb loin from Sams yesterday split it into thirds and vacuum sealed them.  I now have a meal in mind after seeing yours.  Would like to see the recipe for the sauce.

Thanks
 
Looking good!!

I may have to get over the dislike I have for loins and try one soon..

Ooooh! I wish I'd had this recipe last weekend! I smoked a full loin (cut in half) for a family dinner using the famous rub and hickory chips--turned out so moist and delish! It was a BIG hit!

(Yes, I'm a newbie...) just a couple of quick questions... Did you wrap your loin in foil before, during, and/or after the smoking? I just wrapped mine after. I slathered it in mustard, then rub, then let it set in the spare fridge overnight. Sure was good!  Also, I think you scored it? I didn't score mine, but I will next time, if that means more better flavor!

Thanks!

Hi Brittany. I didn't wrap mine in foil till I took it out of the smoker for the rest in the cooler. I didn't put any mustard on it just the rub & yes I scored it. It allows the rub to get deeper in the meat & helps the fat render since it wasn't cooked at or to a really high temp
