Apple Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

Once the Fall breeze sweeps over the mountains and the trees begin changing colors, I know we are fully into football season.  But more importantly (kinda) it means time to break out the smoker! Well...actually it stays out all year long and gets used quite often...but I enjoy it more in the colder months!!

Nothing says Autumn like apples.  This inspired my Apple Stuffed Pork Tenderloin.  I smoke it on my smoker but this can easily be done in the oven.
