I typically do in the 350 range. As long as you don't over cook, you'll be fine.

I would go a little slower and develop a little more smoky flavor.

if you have a deli slicer, you'll love the lunch meat sliced thin. I sliced cold Tri-tip thin on the slicer and it was the best beef lunch meat.

I would take it slow and indirect.I like my butt rubbed and my pork pulled.

I tend to do pork loin raised direct at 400, however it'll be good either way as long as you hit your target temp of 145. Like biggreenpharmacist said if you want more of a smokey flavor cook lower and longer. Personally I usually marinade and cook quick and hot to get a nice sear on it.

If it is a big full loin I like to go indirect about 275 till hits 125-130 and then direct for a little char If it's the small tenderloin the I will run raised direct at about 325-350 and flip often till it hits 137 or then let it rest and you should end up a perfect 145.-----------------------------------------analyze adapt overcome2008 -Large BGE. 2013- Small BGE and 2015 - Mini.

Try this, marinade in teriyaki and pineapple juice, low and slow indirect, use Cherry and Hickory, 1 medium size a piece. Go 250F, till about 140F remove wrap in foil until serving. You can get the marinade at your grocery store, cheaper the better."Knowledge is Good" - Emil Faber

I usually cook indirect at 350 until 145 degrees. Carry over will raise the temperature somewhat above that. I grew up in the days when trichinosis was a problem and have never quite adjusted to pink pork.
