Grilled Cedar-Plank Pork Loin image

You'll need all-natural cedar plank to infuse the pork with a delicious smoky flavor. You can also turn off the center burner on a gas grill for a portion of the cooking time to keep it from burning.

Time 9h

Number Of Ingredients 3

1 boneless pork loin (about 4 pounds), trimmed and trussed
Coarse salt and freshly ground pepper
Spicy Plum Salsa

Steps:

  • Soak a cedar plank in water overnight. (Weigh it down with cans or something else heavy to keep it submerged.)
  • Heat grill to medium, and brush grates clean. Season pork with salt and pepper.
  • Place pork on soaked cedar plank. Grill pork on plank over direct heat with lid closed (the grill should reach 425 degrees on a grill thermometer), until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the pork loin reaches 138 degrees, 50 to 55 minutes.
  • Remove pork from plank and let rest for at least 10 minutes before slicing. Serve warm or at room temperature with salsa.
