Although I make smoked pork butt or pork shoulder<\/a> more often, nothing beats the tender, delicate flavor of smoked pork loin roast. A pitmaster friend introduced me to one of their recipes and I have been tinkering with it ever since!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In this post, I will show you an excellent smoked pork loin recipe and offer up top tips to make sure it turns out great. Let’s begin!<\/p>\n\n\n

What Is Pork Loin Roast?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n

I know, I know – this seems like an unnecessary lesson considering you are here to learn how to smoke a pork loin roast.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Nevertheless, I need to do my due diligence and make sure that you know exactly which cut<\/a> you are roasting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The pork loin is a large cut of meat that is taken from a section running from the shoulder to the middle of the pig. The reason that it is referred to as a roast is due to is size – the pork loin roast is usually about 2 to 4lbs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The main distinction that I want to make here, though, is the difference between loin roast and pork tenderloin.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Now, these two cuts may come from a similar area, but pork tenderloin is a lot more tender and contains less fat. This cut is fairly small too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Between you and me, the main reason to know the difference between these two cuts has to do with the fact that pork tenderloin is a lot more pricier than the loin roast!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Due to this, make sure to specify to your butcher which cut you want to smoke.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
