[raptor700]

4lb loin rubbed and coated with light brown sugar

smoked at 225* till internal 140* then covered with brown sugar cured bacon and smoked till160* I then removed the bacon and placed the loin in a pan with sliced apples,butter,and brown sugar then foiled!

For some reason I couldn't attach all the pics

 So here are the rest! I continued to smoke till internal 170*

 then sliced and ready to serve!

  It had a taste almost like a honey cured ham! Very tender too, Thanks for checkin it out!

Oh yummy. Pork loin and apples with brown sugar is one of my all time favorites! They compliment each other so well. Looks great too! Nice job!

Wow! Now that's what i'm talking about. That's going to the top of my to do list. How long did that take?

Raptor that looks soo damn good!! Great job. One question though is why so high on the tenderloin?? Does it slice better at that higher temp??

I didn't really time it (cook by temp not time) But I do remember it was atleast 5hrs

The only reason I went to 170* was I wanted it to steam a little and maybe soak up a little flavor from the apples and brown sugar! I was actually just tryin something different and finally it worked LOL! It did slice real nice, not too tender,not too tough it was(Just Right).

That looks awesome, what liquid did you use when you foiled?

That looks awesome, what liquid did you use when you foiled?

I added the sliced apples, 3/4 stick butter, and 1/2 cup brown sugar. And put on the smoker to warm up 20mins before the loin was ready to foil. The apples,butter, and sugar make a nice liquid!

Great job. Simple recipes are best IMHO.

My wife made that (not in the smoker) last weekend in the crock pot, she also added chunks of sweet potatoes. I heard it was good, i was in bed sick. Looks good!

 

[sqwib]

Great job

Hell... I would say that qualifies as desert

 

[cheesehead]

Wow that looks awesome. I have some CB curing might have to find another piece of loin to give this a whirl too!
