The 2021 Pocono Green 225 recycled by J.P. Mascaro & Sons was the 16th race of the 2021 NASCAR Xfinity Series season, and the 6th iteration of the event. The event was held on Sunday, June 27, 2021 in Long Pond, Pennsylvania at Pocono Raceway, a triangular permanent course. The race took 90 laps to complete. Austin Cindric of Team Penske would win the race, after a scare for Cindric, as Cindric suffered lapped traffic during the last laps of the race. Ty Gibbs of Joe Gibbs Racing and Justin Allgaier of JR Motorsports would take the rest of the podium positions, finishing 2nd and 3rd, respectively.
