| Remove from the refrigerator. Combine 6 tablespoons of brown sugar with 2 tablespoons of Chicken rub. Rub onto the wrapped pork. | |
| Step 3 | |
| Smoke for 2 hours at 200 degrees. Increase temperature to 250 and smoke an additional 1-3 hours, depending on the size of the pork. Check the temperature every hour and remove when the pork is at least at 145 degrees. | |

Summer is fast approaching (at least here in California) and nothing says Summer more than BBQ. Pork loin is one of those cuts of meats that is so delicious when cooked right, but so awful when overcooked or cooked too quickly. With this recipe, you will find a delicious and juicy pork loin… oh, and bacon! Can’t forget the bacon.
Start off your summer with BBQ… Enjoy!
Just made bacon wrapped chicken thighs, pretty darn good….but this, oh man!
:). Agreed. It was an ‘oh man’ dinner.
