Smoked Pork Tenderloin with Marinade and Raspberry Glaze
A pork tenderloin is marinated, smoked and glazed to create a show stopper of a meal!
Ingredients
- 1 Pork Tenderloin
For Marinade
- 1/2 c Apple Juice
- 1/2 c Italian Dressing
- 1/2 can Sprite
- 1/4 c Brown Sugar
- Salt & Pepper
For Raspberry Glaze
- 1 tbn butter
- 1/2 cup of chopped roasted peppers
- 2 tsn chili powder
- 1 tsn salt
- 1 tbn apple cider vinegar
- 2 1/2 tbn raspberry preserves
- 1 clove of garlic
Instructions
- For Raspberry Glaze: Melt butter in a saucepan. Add everything else and stir well. Let it come to a boil then turn off heat. I made this ahead of time and refrigerated it until serving time. I just heated it up right before serving.
- Combine marinade ingredients, set a small amount aside for basting, and dump remainder in large ziploc bag. Add tenderloin, and let marinate for at least 30 minutes, up to overnight.
- Set up your grill for indirect cooking or use your smoker.
- Smoke at 200-225 using fruit wood for about an hour, basting with reserve marinade every 15-20 minutes. Internal temperature needs to be at least 145.
- Remove, cover, and let rest for 15 minutes before slicing.
- Drizzle Raspberry Glaze on top.
