Pellet Grill Instructions

  • Preheat pellet grill to 250℉ and soak toothpicks in water.

  • Wrap the pork loin in strips of bacon, securing the bacon with toothpicks as you go.
  • Put in center of pellet grill and cook for about 2½ hours, or until the center reaches 145℉.

Notes

Use your favorite rub. We like to use either a BBQ rub or Jerk seasoning. However, there are so many flavors that would be fabulous. Mix and match your favorite spice blends.
