How long do you grill a 2lb pork tenderloin?

Answer 1

Pork tenderloin and chicken breasts are my most dependable items for grilling. In both cases, I tell my wife it will take 23 minutes though I don't time them and that's never the time. I check doneness using my barbeque fork.

Here's the process. heat the grills until the barbeque thermometer reads 375 - 400. Place the oiled and seasoned pork or chicken onto the grill for about 1 - 2 minutes, lid closed. Turn the meat and grill for 1 - 2 minutes on the other side (shorter for smaller pieces). Next, turn off all but the front or far-side burner and place the meat on the high rack at the back or side away from the "on" burner. Touch the meat lightly (don't pierce) with the fork; it will feel squishy. Turn the burner to low so the closed barbeque reaches 330 - 370 and allow the meat to cook slowly for 12 - 15 minutes. Pour yourself a bit more wine. after the 12 - 15 minutes, do the fork-check again. You will find the meat firmer. Continue the cooking, checking every 4-5 minutes, until there is no more "squishiness". Remove from heat; cover with foil for 3-5 minutes; cut 1/2 inch slices on an angle and serve. Family and guests will exclaim about the moistness and tenderness. Enjoy the meat and the praise!

Answer 2

First sear on all sides to keep in juices. Continue grilling on indirect heat turning every 2-3 minutes for about 44 min. total. Internal temp should not go over 160. Let rest for 10-15 min before slicing.

Answer 3

I would say, generally: about 325 F

For a 10lb loin (after seasoning, marination, love, and general sleeplessness) depending on type of cooking, 325 F in oven, wet, in a foil wrap envelope,and lotsa beer, for you!

Time on your hands, cook! If you don't have a clue when cooking on a coal fired smoker/grill......why ask now? Wasting good meat is stupid! Do it right:

4lb: prepped up right wet, foil pack :2hrs.@350F : reduce heat to 300 for 1 more hour. Lotsa butter, low sugar, sauce at the end. Perfect every time. I know I'm eating chicken and ribs tonight that are awesome -- same formula!

Answer 4

Time vs. temperature is a most unreliable method to determine doneness. Pick up a meat thermometer (~$5 and lasts for decades) and cook pork to 160oF internal.

Answer 5

It typically takes around 3-5 hours to cook pork loin ribs but can vary depending on the size.Many seasons can be used such as Pepper and even sauces.
