Learn step by step how to make a smoked pork loin, or tenderloin, on a Pit Boss pellet grill and why this is such a great way to prepare this ultimate pork roast.

Let’s go!

How to Prepare a Pork Loin for the Pit Boss Pellet Grill

You shouldn’t have to trim too much fat or connective tissue if you bought a pork tenderloin to smoke on the Pit Boss.

The tenderloin is generally the 1 lb center section of the full 3 lb boneless pork loin that usually contains the best meat.

Depending on your crowd and your budget, you can either buy multiple tenderloins or a single loin to smoke in your Pit Boss.

Other the time it takes to cook, all our directions below will apply to either choice!

You do not need to completely remove the exterior fat like we did with our Pit Boss Smoked Beef Tenderloin.

Instead, if there is a little fat cap you can trim it down and then score or crosshatch it to help the fat render more and allow our rub to penetrate deeper towards the meat.

The Best Seasonings for Smoking Pork Tenderloin on a Pit Boss

Unlike our beef tenderloin, we are going to go for a more sugary rub like traditional pork butt and ribs might call for.

Pork pairs so well with sweeter rubs and traditional BBQ seasonings.  Our recipe below uses a mixture of:

• Brown Sugar
• Smoked Paprika
• Chili Powder
• Onion and Garlic Powder
• Cumin
• Salt and Pepper

If you don’t feel like making your own rub our favorite off the shelf brand for smoked pork loin is Three Little Pigs, particularly Three Little Pigs Touch of Cherry on pork.

It’s got a fantastic traditional sweet (but not overly sweet) flavor profile with a little heat and garlic kick at the end.

We use it all the time on ribs, pork butt, and chicken.

If you want to use a quality rub without the sugar we are big fans of Bad Byron’s Butt Rub Seasoning on smoked pork loin because it is heavy on flavor, and has no sugar.

It also works great anytime you are reverse searing.

We aren’t going to reverse sear our smoked pork loin today, just let it cook low and slow on the Pit Boss.

But if you DO want to cook it at a higher temperature and not have to worry about burning your sugary rub, then go with something like Bad Byron’s.

The Best Wood Pellets for Smoking a Pork Loin on a Pit Boss Pellet Grill

You have a lot of options when it comes to choosing the right wood pellets to smoke your pork loin on a Pit Boss pellet grill.

Mesquite and hickory will give a very aggressive smoke flavor to the lean pork loin, usually a little too much, if used solely on their own rather than mixed with a milder fruitwood or blend.

Pecan, apple, beech, alder, and cherry pellets all give great results on pork when cooked on a Pit Boss.

However, our hands down can’t go wrong favorite is straight up Pit Boss Applewood Pellets when smoking pork.

Especially leaner pork cuts like pork loin and pork tenderloin, you can;t go wrong with that mild apple wood smoke.

Pit Boss Apple Pellets

• 100% all natural hardwood pellets
• The flavor is mild and fruity with a subtle sweetness that taste best with poultry, pork, seafood and lamb

For the best results, store your unused pellets in a sealed room temperature container like this 20 lb pellet container rather than in the Pit Boss hopper outside.

Pellets do not last forever, but will definitely last a LOT longer if stored indoors in a quality airtight container.

Oklahoma Joe’s Pellet Bucket Kit, Black

• Store up to 20 pounds of hardwood pellets in the heavy-duty plastic pellet bucket.
• Weatherproof, airtight lid protects pellets from the elements, keeping them fresh and dry
• Wire-mesh filter separates wood dust from the pellets for a clean burn
• Heavy-duty plastic scoop to easily transfer pellets

We have previously covered how to season a Pit Boss, how to start a Pit Boss, as well as how to troubleshoot the smoke level of your pellet grill.

So if you need a more in-depth review on how to use your Pit Boss for the first time, check those articles out first!

But below is a brief overview of how a Pit Boss pellet grill works and how to start it up properly to prepare to smoke a pork loin.
