Regardless of whether you are camping, hosting a company picnic or simply want something a little different and definitely delicious for a regular dinner at home, bbq pork loin is a dish that delivers outstanding results time after time.

While BBQ pork loin is always consistent in its delicious delivery of taste, the one thing that isn’t consistent about this popular dish is the method of preparing it. If you talk to twenty people and ask them how to prepare BBQ pork loin, the chances are very good that you will receive 20 very different BBQ pork loin recipes and preparation ideas. From rosemary to brown sugar to various types of rubs, there are multiple ways to prepare a delicious BBQ pork loin.

Regardless of how you decide to prepare your BBQ pork loin, one thing that you’ll want to be careful of is in making sure that your BBQ pork loin is cooked to the proper temperature. While many people like meat that is a trifle on the underdone side as opposed to charred food, BBQ pork loin is not a food that you want to undercook.

Eating undercooked BBQ pork loin can lead to serious health issues and food poisoning so it’s important to make sure that you cook your BBQ pork loin thoroughly. The trick with this, of course, is in getting the BBQ pork loin cooked well enough to avoid any potential health problems but while still maintaining that tender, juicy succulent taste that we all know and love.

The best way to handle this issue when preparing BBQ pork loin is to use a meat thermometer. Simply trying to ‘eyeball’ a BBQ pork loin does not work very well and will almost always result in overcooking due to the fact that this cut of meat tends to be lean and will dry out and therefore not taste well. So, use a meat thermometer when preparing BBQ pork loin and aim for somewhere between 143 degrees and 150. This will usually yield a BBQ pork loin that is tender and moist.
