Smoke Roasted Pork Tenderloin

Chef's notes

Easy and flavorful dish that can be prepared cooked in about 30-35 minutes. Just omit the smoke if you want to take it indoors with the oven

Details

  • ⏲️ Prep time: Rub ahead of time
  • 🍳 Cook time: 30-35 minutes (temperature though and not time)

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons paprika
  • 4 tablespoons coconut sugar (can substitute brown sugar)
  • 1.5 tablespoons kosher salt
  • 1 tablespoon fresh black pepper
  • .5 tablespoon chili powder
  • 1 tablespoon garlic powder
  • 1 tablespoon onion powder
  • 1 tablespoon ground mustard
  • 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper (optional)

Directions

  1. Pat tenderloins dry and season with Rub and let rest for at least two hours
  2. Fire up grill / smoker to 350 When appropriate for your grill add a mild wood like pecan.
  3. Smoke Roast and pull off a little early to let rest to 145. I like this temp because I think searing becomes optional. If you want to sear go ahead and take it down to 250
  4. If sear is desired: Sear for one minute per side in a hot cast iron pan. Check after 30 seconds to be careful not to let the sugar burn
