Once the onions softened, add sliced apples, pepper spice, Turbino sugar, Worcestershire sauce, 1/2 cup of spiced rum, and a cinnamon stick broken in half. Then let it simmer for a while til it starts to thicken

While the apple mix is simmering, season the tenderloin with grillin' pepper spice

Once thickened take the apples off the stove, place a grill rack on top of pan, then place tenderloin on rack. Now this will go into the smoker ( or oven ) with apple wood at 230* for about 1 hour. I want the meat juices to flavor the apples too.

After about an hour in the smoke, I removed the tenderloin and apples and put it and the apple mix ( remove cinnamon sticks before putting in pouch ) into a double foil pouch to finish cooking. Will take it to 140* internal. Then pull from smoker and wrap in a towel and let it rest on the counter til everything else is ready.
