Steps:
- 1. In small bowl, mix dry rub ingredients and set aside. Cut off any excess fat from the pork and remove any sinew (the tough fibrous tissue). Cover the pork tenderloins on all sides with dry rub and refrigerate overnight or for at least 8 hours. (*I coated them each on 2 separate sheets of plastic wrap and wrapped them tightly, placed them in a 9x11 baking dish and marinated them overnight.) In small bowl, mix mop sauce ingredients. Heat in microwave until hot to melt honey. Stir well, set outside by grill. Pre heat gas grill 5 minutes before cooking. Place pork tenderloins on hot grill (medium-high) with tongs. Close lid and grill the pork for 5 minutes, turn over and grill 5 minutes longer. Turn again and heavily baste with mop sauce, close lid and grill 5 minutes. Turn over, baste again and close lid for 5 more minutes. (*Total cooking time is 20 minutes.) Remove to a baking dish, cover, and let rest 5 minutes. Remove to cutting board and slice to serve.
- 2. *Leftover rub and mop sauce is also good on chicken, wings, and fish!

- Serve pork tenderloin with your favorite sides, such as mashed potatoes, roasted vegetables, or a simple salad.
