Looks great. Nice smoke ring.

Happy smoken.

At what temp were you smoking and what wood did you use?
I smoked it at 225-240ish. When the temp would get to high I sprayed the loin with apple juice and cracked the lid until the temp got back down. The wood started off as mesquite and I ran out so finished up with apple.

Thanks for the kid words guys!
 
Good lookin' loin! 

I've been experimenting and decided to cook the last two as usual the first 3 or four hours, then pulled them and put them in a disposable aluminum pan with a bit of apple juice, foiled them tightly and finished in the oven at 350° for a couple of hours to 200 to 205° so they were as tender as pulled pork.  Made gravy with the Jus and they were knock your socks off good!  Fork tender and very moist.  My new favorite way to do loin!

You won't be disappointed!  Save the Jus, add some brewed coffee and make a roux with flour and butter to thicken it with and enjoy

  Hopefully I'll get my new (to me) smoker going before long and won't have to finish them in the oven
