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 the right cut of meat. Pork tenderloin is a lean, tender cut of meat that is perfect for grilling. It's important to choose a tenderloin that is about 1 pound in weight and has a uniform thickness. If the tenderloin is too thick, it will not cook evenly.
- Prepare the marinade. The marinade is what gives the pork tenderloin its flavor. Be sure to use a marinade that contains a combination of sweet and spicy ingredients. Some good options include honey, brown sugar, Sriracha, and chili powder.
- Marinate the pork tenderloin. Once you have prepared the marinade, place the pork tenderloin in a resealable bag or container. Pour the marinade over the pork tenderloin and let it marinate for at least 30 minutes, or up to overnight.
- Preheat the grill. Preheat your grill to medium-high heat. This will help to ensure that the pork tenderloin cooks evenly.
- Grill the pork tenderloin. Place the pork tenderloin on the preheated grill and cook for about 10-12 minutes per side, or until the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest. Once the pork tenderloin is cooked, remove it from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices to redistribute throughout the meat.
Conclusion:
Sweet and spicy grilled pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for a weeknight meal or a special occasion. By following these tips, you can ensure that your pork tenderloin turns out perfectly cooked and flavorful.
