Pork Tenderloin my way

Good evening all!

Had a short clinic day today so I thought I'd beat the Mrs. home and cook dinner. Grabbed the little pork tenderloin out of the fridge and off we go.....

Seasoned with BGE's Garlic and Pepper seasonings and lightly glazed with a blend of honey and brown sugar. Off to the Egg at a cool 350-ish raised-direct till about 135, flipped once during the cook. Re-glazed and let sit in for a few more minutes to get that sugar to crust. 

Juicy as as all get out!  Served with carrots and brown rice; with a big ole Southern Sweeet Tea. 

Rockwood only on this cook since I did not want any discernible smoke.

    Looks like money to me my friend. However I won't say who's money ;)

    Pork tenderloin is one of my favorites now on the BGE. That looks awesome. I like the sweet glaze with honey!

    Really nice cook right there.  There's enough juice there to make a really nice reduction.  Very nicely done.

    That's a winner @DaveRichardson! I'll bet that seasoning is fantastic on pork tenderloin. I'm going to give that a try soon.

    I know you were going for no smoke on this one. Our favorite is to throw in one little chunk of peach with pork tenderloin. Just a subtle sweetness to the peach smoke and it goes well with any sweet glaze.

    @minniemoh I always use peach or pecan for my smoke; I am in GA!  We regularly go pick peaches for ice cream. I might try a small piece for the next one.

    You get a lot better peach wood than I do then!  =) Wish I could source it right from the tree. We love your GA peaches.
