Steps
1
In a small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, lemon zest and juice, garlic, parsley, salt, and pepper.
2
Trim any silverskin and excess fat from the tenderloin. Place the pork in a large resealable bag. Pour the marinade over the tenderloin and seal the bag, making sure the pork is well coated. Transfer to the refrigerator and marinate for at least 2 hours, or up to 8 hours.
3
When ready to cook, set the Traeger temperature to 375°F and preheat with the lid closed for 15 minutes.

Remove the tenderloin from the bag and discard the marinade.

Place the tenderloin directly on the grill grates. Insert the probe into the center of the tenderloin. Close the lid and cook, flipping once halfway through, until the internal temperature reaches 145°F, 15-20 minutes.
