    Smoked Pork Loin for tacos?

    Good to hear that others are giving this a try! The fat layer on this loin was quite thin, maybe 1/8".  I did not trim at all.  I quartered this huge loin and rubbed and wrapped two chunks.  I had some bacon handy, so I rubbed and then did a bacon weave on the other two.  Rub was SPOG, heavy on...

    I'll add some Qview tonight when I rub and wrap the "test" loin and then add more Qview as the testing continues... Thanks for the responses - I think it will work out just fine.

    Everyone has to have a "first" fatty, right?

    Took the second fatty to work this morning and used a microwave to heat it up (before slicing).  It took about 5 minutes in a tupperware box with lid on gently to bring it up to a reasonable temperature (which was still a bit cool in the middle). Meh, not as good as fresh and hot, but the boys...

    Everyone has to have a "first" fatty, right?

    As promised, more Qview!  Done!  Smoked 'em to 165 (@ 250, it took 2  1/4 hours) then turned the Traeger up to high to crisp the bacon a bit...15 minutes later...internal temp reached 175 and I was a bit worried....but... The bacon was done to perfection and the insides...well, I know you all...

    Had a problem with the Traeger - needed to source a new control asap. Drove 100 miles round trip and I'm smoking now! More Qview to come as this adventure continues...

    Half mild, half spicy sausage, sauteed onions, mushrooms, spinach and gruyere. Card is for scale. More Q-view this weekend when I smoke 'em! Thanks to all the rollin' and smokin' forum members who inspired me to try this crazy thing.

    Thanks!  I've been searching the archives for answers to a few questions that have bothered me for years, and, of course, got the information I was looking for.  Thanks to all previous posters and also to the forum owner for archiving so well. Still smokin', Jeff

    This looks like an active forum and I'm happy to have found you. I have a Traeger and a BGE right now.  I've been smoking food for about 10 years. I know how to use the search function, and I'll try to keep questions to a minimum.  I'll also try to add my own knowledge if needed. Jeff
