Pork tenderloin smoke

Powak

picked up a little marinated pork tenderloin at Hannys the other day. I’ve always toasted these direct somewhere around 400° turning once halfway thru the cook. But I’ve been thinking I’d like to smoke one at 250°. About how long do these little guys take?

And about how much wood? 1-2 chunks?

I usually say around 45 minutes per pound at 225 so maybe look at 35-40 minutes per pound just keep a close eye on it. I toss these on at 375-400 all the time! Love them, and so do the friends.

Came out excellent! About an hour and 20. Pulled at 160°.

Looking pretty serious @Powak what temps were you set at?

Nice Sammy! You smoked it then? What did you use (chips or chunks, hickory or apple)?

Thanks! Yes I smoked with with 2 big chunks of hickory. Next time I may do one chunk or less with this cut. I topped it with Cabot sharp NY ched and sweet onion.
