Having the crew over to watch the piggy game Saturday night and this seems like a good menu idea. I've never smoked one before, anyone have recipe and/or tips?

As the others have said, loin is just too lean to cook fully on a smoker.
You could stuff a pork butt instead, though I've never tried that.
If you want to stick with a loin I'd cook it in stages. Stuff it (with a fully cooked stuffing) then cook it sous vide at a low temp until done. Look for times/temps online but lower/longer should keep it from drying out. A crock pot on low should do the trick too, just make sure there is plenty of moisture. Then take it out, dry it off and bacon wrap it then throw it on the smoker to finish and add some flavor. Use a hotter temp to crisp the bacon.
