Fat Man's Smoked Pork Tenderloin with Honey Glaze
Lean, clean, and surprisingly tender when you do it right, this pork tenderloin gets smoked low and slow, kissed with honey-mustard glaze, and sliced like you’ve got a waiting crowd. Bonus: it looks way more complicated than it is.

✅ Fat Man Tip
Hit it with a quick cast iron sear after smoking for a golden crust you can hear crack when you slice it.
