Pecan Covered Pork Loin

Pecan Covered Pork Loin

Get ready to embark on a flavor adventure with this off-the-wall, yet incredibly delicious, pork loin recipe!

Shout-out to Timothy Martin (smell_that_smoke_bbq_mke) for delivering yet another hit.

You Will Need

The Prep

Start by cleaning up any silver skin or unevenness on the pork loin using a sharp boning knife. This step ensures that your loin cooks evenly and results in a tender, succulent bite.

Once prepped, it's time to add some flavor: Generously season the pork loin with Sweet Honey Pecan rub, and let it sweat while you set up the smoker. Set the temperature to 300°F (149°C), using Smokey Woods pecan wood for smoke.

The Cook

Now it's time to introduce the pork loin to the smoker and let the magic happen. Allow the pork loin to smoke for about 1.5 hours. Keep a close eye on the internal temperature: as it reaches 120°F (49°C), it's time to baste it with some Honey Jalapeno BBQ sauce, and cover in crushed pecans. The sauce will act as a sticky glue for the crushed pecans, creating a delightful texture.

Continue cooking the pork loin until it reaches an internal temperature of 135°F (57°C). Remember, the meat will continue to cook and increase in temperature a few degrees during the resting period. This ensures a juicy and tender pork loin that will make your taste buds rejoice.

The Payoff

The moment of truth has arrived. Remove the pork loin from the smoker and let it rest for a few minutes to half an hour, to allow the juices to redistribute and the flavors to settle.

The only thing that's left to do is slice your masterpiece and enjoy the fruits of your labor!
