I had a 4-5lb Pork Loin in the freezer that I decided to take out and BBQ. I've done beef roasts, pork back ribs, chicken, sausages, etc. on the BBQ many times, but never a Pork Loin Roast. I did some searches online for various recipes and found a very simple one that grabbed my attention. I didn't think however that using only salt & pepper this recipe suggested was enough to please my palette, so I made it my own with a marinade and rub.

I let it thaw overnight and in the a.m. placed it in a large Ziploc bag with Light Soy Sauce, fresh Garlic and Brown Sugar. Back into the fridge it went for about 8 hours (massaging it and turning it over about every 2 hours). Once done marinating I patted it dry and rubbed it all over with a liberal amount of Montreal Steak Spice....yes, steak spice. I turned on the BBQ and let it come to temperature.

The left side of the BBQ was set on HIGH, the 2 other burners (centre & right) were left off. I rubbed the grill with some oil and placed the Pork Loin on it to get a nice sear/seal and grill marks. This only took a few minutes per side. I then moved the Pork Loin over to the right burner and let it cook for an hour using INDIRECT heat. I turned it twice during that hour. Since I couldn't find my Meat Thermometer I pulled it off after an hour as I didn't want it to overcook. Well, it was perfect! I had made a small incision and could tell it was done to perfection. I then let it rest for 20 minutes.

Here are the results:

You're right....the smell from it was amazing. I could taste what I smelled. Just a touch of sweetness and a light kick. I'm going to try a little more heat next time...not much, just a tad.
