Fuel: We recommend Kingsford™ Grillmaster’s Choice Hardwood Pellets.

3The Cook
When you’re at temp, put cooking oil on a folded paper towel. Grab the oiled paper towel with long-handled tongs and oil the grate thoroughly.
Place the tenderloins in the pellet grill and spritz with the apple juice every 20 minutes as they cook.
Cook for about 60 minutes, or until the thickest part of the meat reaches an internal temperature of 145°F on a digital meat thermometer.
Remove the tenderloins from the smoker, and rest under a piece of foil for 5 minutes.
Slice, serve and enjoy.
