Time 48m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 pork tenderloin (about 1 lb.)
2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 teaspoons smoked paprika
1 ½ teaspoons kosher salt
1 teaspoon chili powder
1 teaspoon onion powder
1 teaspoon garlic powder
Optional, for serving: barbecue sauce

Steps:

  • In a small bowl, combine brown sugar, smoked paprika, kosher salt, chili powder, onion powder and garlic powder.
  • Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat and silverskin. Pat the pork dry, and then rub the spice mixture all over the meat.
  • Allow pork to sit at room temperature while preparing the grill.
  • Preheat grill to medium heat and brush the grates with vegetable oil (to prevent sticking).
  • Place pork on the grill. Close the grill and cook 15-18 minutes, turning every few minutes to ensure even cooking. The meat is done when it reaches an internal temperature of 140-145 degrees F. You can baste with the barbecue sauce during the final 1-2 minutes, or just serve warm barbecue sauce alongside the pork for dipping.
  • Remove the tenderloin to a cutting board and allow the meat to rest for about 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving.

Tips:

  • Choose a tenderloin that is firm to the touch and has no visible signs of bruising or damage.
  • Trim any excess fat from the tenderloin before cooking.
  • Season the tenderloin generously with a flavorful rub or marinade. This will help to enhance the flavor of the meat.
  • Sear the tenderloin in a hot skillet or grill pan over medium-high heat. This will create a nice crust on the outside of the meat while keeping the inside juicy.
  • Reduce the heat to medium-low and continue to cook the tenderloin, turning occasionally, until it reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
  • Let the tenderloin rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.

Conclusion:

Pork tenderloin is a delicious and versatile cut of meat that can be cooked in a variety of ways. Whether you are grilling, roasting, or pan-frying, there are endless possibilities for creating a flavorful and satisfying meal.
