Brine Ingredients
Directions
Brine the pork loin: In a brine bag or food safe container, add the brine ingredients listed above. Lastly, add the pork loin, followed by a small bag of ice. Cover and store in the refrigerator or a cooler for a minimum of 12 hours, not exceeding 48 hours.
Preheat your smoker to 225 °F using hickory wood.
Prepare the pork loin: Trim any hard or hanging pieces of fat. Cut pork loin into three individual long strips. Form a tight braid and secure with two skewers.
Apply a thin layer of Maple Bourbon Wing Sauce by PS Seasoning and season with Prime Time Buttery Beef Rub by PS Seasoning.
Smoke at 225 °F until the pork loin reaches an internal temperature of 110 °F.
Increase the grill or smoker temperature to 350 °F and cook for an additional 30-45 minutes, or until pork loin reaches an internal temperature of a 145 °F (or desired temperature). Baste every 10-15 minutes with Maple Bourbon Wing Sauce by PS Seasoning.
Remove from your grill or smoker and let rest for 10-15 minutes. Remove skewers before slicing and enjoy!
Recipe Note
Pro Tip: If you want to make two proteins for your holiday meal, pair this with our turkey and brine them at the same time.
