Grilling a pork loin is so easy. Let me show you how and serve with a tangy Creamy Mustard Sauce
Hubby and I love to grill as much as we can for several reasons. It’s easy to clean up for me, the kitchen stays cool for both of us and hubby loves his meat and potatoes. There is just something about the flavor of grilled food that we both just adore.
While shopping at Walmart the other day, we were looking for some meat to grill and noticed the Smithfield marinated pork loins. We both love pork loins and I usually put that in the crockpot to make pulled pork, but we decided this would be great for the grill.
This is the best part of this meal. All I needed to prepare to grill was the Smithfield Garlic & Herb pork loin, tongs, and a really hot grill. That’s it!! I didn’t have to make my own marinade and prepare hours in advance. Just pull the pork loin from the fridge and it’s ready to grill.
Grilling pork loin isn’t that hard. Make sure your grill is really hot. I then add the meat and let it sear for about 7 – 8 minutes on each side. I love grill marks on the meat.
Since I use a gas grill, I turn off one side of the grill and turn the other side down to low. I place the meat on the side where I turned off the heat and let it cook for about 30 – 40 minutes longer. It takes about 20 minutes per pound of pork to cook on low heat. I will check on the meat every 20 minutes using a meat thermometer to see if the temp is about 160 to 170 degrees. I then wrap the meat in foil and let it sit for about 10 minutes while I prepare the rest of the meal.
One of my favorite sauces to use on meat is Creamy Mustard Sauce. There are only 5 ingredients that you would normally have in your pantry and only takes a few minutes to whip up.
Grilled Pork Loin with Creamy Mustard Sauce
INGREDIENTS
- 1 tbsp + 1 tsp Dijon mustard
- 1 tsp of chopped fresh rosemary
- 1/4 tsp pepper
- 3 tbsp of light mayonnaise
- 1 tbsp of water
INSTRUCTIONS
- Mix all ingredients together except for the water. Add the water and if its too thick add more water. I like this sauce to be like a gravy to pour on the meat.
- You can also use jar rosemary if you don’t have fresh.
NOTES
Mr. G and I both LOVED this meat. The marinade was perfect for us and the mustard sauce just gave it another twist in flavor. The meat was so juicy and cooked perfectly.

We don’t do much with pork loin; we’re more of a pork chop family. I think it’s because I’m intimidated, haha. I bet my husband would really like this, though, and he’s always looking for ways to use our home-grown rosemary.
The mustard sauce is good with pork chops too if you don’t want to make the pork loin.
This looks so delicious! I’ve never tried grilling pork loin before.
Thanks Alex
I’ve never tried grilling a pork loin but it sure sounds delicious! I love that it’s all marinated and ready to go!
Always in the past I put my pork loins in the crock pot. But I was so impressed how easy it is to grill. Just have to make sure the temp is good before eating.
This looks delicious! I would definitely have to substitute for the mustard (can’t stand it!) but the hubby is great at adapting recipes for my quirky palette. The pork loin just looks so yummy… and it’s not something we eat a lot of so I’m always looking for a good recipe!
Thanks Betsy. I can’t eat mustard like I use to, so I’m going to have to figure out something different too in the near future.
That sounds absolutely delicious. I can’t wait to make this for my family! It’s gonna be a big hit.
It will be a huge hit with your family Robin and thanks for stopping by
Can I come over for dinner one night? This looks so good.
You sure can Tiffany!!
This looks amazing! We love pork loins or tenderloins and this looks like an easy recipe to change it up! Thanks!
Thanks for stopping by Karen
Mmm this look yummy. I think my husband would like this recipe with the mustard sauce – he tends to grill a lot and all year round!
The sauce is great with all kinds of meats.
I have been wanting pork a lot for some reason this pregnancy! This looks fab!
I think this pork will satisfy your cravings
This looks AMAZING!!! My husband grilled pork loin on the 4th of July and it was so yummy. I’m saving this recipe for him.
What I love the best about this meat is you don’t have much prep time. All the other pork we grill you need to make the marinade and let it sit over night. Smithfield marinated pork is already done and its a great flavor
This looks and sounds SO delicious. I know for a fact my husband and I would love this, so maybe I can make it for date night next week. Yum.
This would make a great date night meal.
That creamy mustard sauce sounds amazing! Sounds like the perfect compliment to the pork loin! Pinning.
I love that sauce especially on grilled chicken. Thanks for stopping by Artney
We’ve been planning to grill meat for the past few weeks, but somehow, something always comes up that we have to postpone it for another day. Thank you for sharing your recipe and letting us know about Smithfield’s marinated pork loin. Hopefully, this weekend, we’ll have something like that to enjoy.
Thanks for stopping by Annemarie. I think you will really love the flavor of the Smithfield marinated meat
This looks sooo good. We’re grilling this weekend and I would love to try this.
Thanks for stopping by Elizabeth
This looks really delicious. I would love to try something like this really soon! Thanks Tammy for the recipe!
Thanks for stopping by Ron.
Oh wow, that mustard sauce looks heavenly. I bet it’s just perfect with the pork. Yum!
I ate that sauce on grilled chicken last night. I keep a batch in the fridge
great recipe ! i cant wait to try these on this coming weekends thanks for your recipe it will be a great food i hope they would like this
This is so great for company. And could make a really elegant dinner.
I think that the new “cook pork to 145 degrees” changed everything for pork. Now its easier to keep pork moist! I love the mustard pork combo!
On the directions it did say 145 degrees. But pork I like done. Not well done, but done. Beef is another story. Thanks for reminding me about that Kristen
Mustard and pork are just flavors meant to be. Your recipe sounds really good.
Oh I love these flavors together.
I definitely would try this recipe! We love anything’s that grilled, so I’m pretty sure this will be a winner. I can imagine how good it would smell. Yumyum!
Oh Tatanisha. The aroma was so good!
This looks FANTASTIC!!! This would be a huge hit at our house! Thank you for linking up at the Creative K Kids’ Tasty Tuesdays! I have pinned your post to our Tasty Tuesdays Pinterest Board!! I hope to see you again this week! xo
