I've been summoned to do a stuffed loin for Easter dinner. I've got the stuffed part with no problems. I've never cooked the loin before only tenderloin hot n fast. What does the collective group say on how to smoke/cook this 5lb hunk O pig?

I recommend 250 till you hit an internal temp
of 145. 15 minute rest and slice. I did one last weekend. Not stuffed and it was perfect. At that temp when I sliced it it was slightly pink but in 5 seconds went white. Super moist and tender. I coated with hardcore carnivore red and had a great finished color on the outside.

I have done a ton of these. I usually smoke it with apple/hickory blend. Usually I cook it around 325F, indirect to desired IT. I marinade in a pineapple/teriyaki mixture, a couple hours before putting it on. Takes about an hour and 10 minutes. You got this.Mattman3969 said:I've been summoned to do a stuffed loin for Easter dinner. I've got the stuffed part with no problems. I've never cooked the loin before only tenderloin hot n fast.

It's a roast Matt. Treat it as such. Plenty of garlic and you'll rock it out.Sandy Springs & Dawsonville Ga
