Ingredients
Pork
- 2.5 lbs pork tenderloin
Pork Dry Rub
- 1/4 cup brown sugar
- 1 tbsp paprika
- 2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp black pepper
- 2 tsp garlic powder
- 2 tsp onion powder
- 3 tsp ground mustard
- 1 tbsp dried parsley

Instructions
- Prepare your smoker as needed and preheat it to the temperature of 225°. For this dish we will be using maple wood.
- In a small bowl, combine all ingredients for pork seasoning and mix them well.
- Take tenderloins out of the package and pat dry with a paper towel. Place them into a rimmed baking dish or on a large cutting board and generously coat with the seasoning, pressing it into the meat.
- Insert a meat thermometer into the center of the thickest part of meat and place in the smoker.
- Smoke for about 1 and a half hours, until internal temperature reaches 145°. (Exact time will depend on the size of the meat.)
- Take it out of the oven and onto a cutting board. Let it rest for about 10 minutes before cutting into it.
