1/2 Pork Loin Direct or Indirect

Got a half loin about 7lbs. Going to brine it tonight. Figure I would cook it hot. 325-350. Just don't know if I should direct or indirect cook it. What do y'all do?

That's a fair size loin. I would recommend indirect if you are not accustom to cooking them direct. I have and still cook them direct but they require constant and diligent monitoring.
Location- Just "this side" of Biloxi, Ms.
Status- Standing by.
The greatest barrier against all wisdom, the stronghold against knowledge itself, is the single thought, in ones mind, that they already have it all figured out. -
Thanks. Went indirect. Used the APL loin recipe and it was awesome.

I picked up a center cut pork loin for the weekend, a little under 2 pounds. Brined it and then cooked it on a raised grill @ 350. Excellent. I've done dozens of tenderloins on the egg but this was my first loin. It will not be my last.

Love that pork loin. Wish my family would eat more pork, but baby backs and puled pork seems their limit.I have a question about the taters. At what point did you put them on? Getting about time for taters and onions on the smoker here in the great pacific north-wet.
