Simple Tenderloin for Labor Day

[equinn]

Just hubby and I today, but I still want BBQ. Going to do a tenderloin - just going to season it up and smoke at 180 for an hour to get the good smoke flavor, then crank it up to 300 and finish till the internal temperature is 150. Then I’ll let it rest as it finishes cooking up to 165. Going to pair that with some roasted Brussels sprouts and cauliflower mash.

I know US guidelines say you can cook pork safely to 145 F. Here in Canada, the safety guidelines are still 165 F. I like about 155 F but I'm an old timer who looks askance at pink pork.

Nope, I don’t know what I was thinking. 145 is more like it.

I'm team 145F on pork loin. I pull at 140 and let it cruise to 145F. So juicy and tender.

I don't care for pink pork (or chicken!), either...not because I'm afraid to eat it, I simply do NOT care for the flavor.

Whole muscle beef, on the other hand, I don't want it to moo, but I'm OK if it twitches!
