How To Cook A Pork Tenderloin On A Traeger

Mastering the Art of Cooking a Perfect Pork Tenderloin on a Traeger

When it comes to cooking a delicious and tender pork tenderloin, there’s no better way to do it than on a Traeger grill. The smoky flavors and even heat distribution from the Traeger make it the ideal choice for achieving melt-in-your-mouth perfection. In this blog post, we will guide you through the steps of cooking a mouthwatering pork tenderloin on your Traeger grill.

Ingredients:

• 1 pork tenderloin (approximately 1-1.5 pounds)
• 2 tablespoons of olive oil
• Salt and pepper to taste
• Your favorite seasonings or rubs (optional)

Instructions:

1. Preheat your Traeger grill to 375°F.
2. While the grill is preheating, prepare the pork tenderloin by trimming any excess fat and silver skin.
3. Rub the pork tenderloin with olive oil, ensuring it is evenly coated.
4. Season the tenderloin with salt, pepper, and any other seasonings or rubs of your choice. This will add depth and flavor to your pork tenderloin.
5. Once the Traeger is preheated, place the pork tenderloin directly on the grill grates.
6. Cook the tenderloin for approximately 20-25 minutes, turning it every 5 minutes to ensure even cooking. Rotating the tenderloin will help it cook evenly on all sides.
7. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. The pork tenderloin is cooked to perfection when it reaches 145°F.
8. Once the desired temperature is reached, remove the tenderloin from the grill and cover it with aluminum foil. Allow it to rest for 5-10 minutes. This step is crucial for the juices to redistribute, resulting in a juicy and tender pork tenderloin.
9. Slice the pork tenderloin into medallions or thicker slices, depending on your preference.
10. Serve and enjoy your mouthwatering Traeger-grilled pork tenderloin with your favorite sides or sauces.

There you have it! By following these simple steps, you can become a master at cooking a perfectly tender and flavorful pork tenderloin on your Traeger grill.
