What kind of pellet grill do you have? Brining will help keeping it moist.
I just bought a Grilla Chimp pellet grill.
Has a pro (smoking mode )
I am not a fan of bringing due to the salt )QUOTE="BrianGSDTexoma, post: 2605969, member: 209693"]

I'm looking at smoking a pork loin this weekend. Been doing some looking around and I'm seeing a lot of temps at the 300-310 mark for smoker. I can't find the why vs a low temp but I'm guessing the higher heat gives it the best texture. I'm also looking at making a glaze. I have a leftover jar of bacon jam so I was thinking using the rest of that and some honey, spices, and bourbon and heat up in a pan.
 
I did one over the holidays that was marinated in mango nectar and rub for about 4 hrs. Then injected with the combo. Smoked @ 275 and pulled @ 135 IT. I usually pull earlier and sear but decided to let it ride this time. Perfect flavor and texture. 300° will definitely speed up the cook but I don't see any texture benefits.
