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.

Provided by Thriving Home

Categories     Pork

Time 30m

Number Of Ingredients 8

1 teaspoon garlic powder
1 teaspoon dried oregano
1 teaspoon ground cumin
1 teaspoon ground coriander
1/2 teaspoon ground thyme
1 teaspoon salt
About 1 1/4 pounds pork tenderloin (This is where we buy our favorite pork tenderloin.*)
1 tablespoon olive oil or avocado oil

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 450° F.
  • In small bowl mix dry ingredients-garlic powder, oregano, cumin, coriander, ground thyme and salt. Stir mixture with a fork until all the ingredients are well combined and they form a seasoning.
  • Rub the pork with the seasoning over all sides of the meat, pressing gently so the seasoning adheres well to the tenderloin. (Freezing instructions begin here.)
  • Optional Step (If freezing, skip this step!): In a large skillet (or oven-safe pan) over medium-high heat, heat the oil until it's shimmering. Carefully place tenderloin in the hot pan using tongs and cook for 1-2 minutes on each side, until the meat is browned evenly.
  • Transfer the pork to a roasting pan (or if it's in an oven-safe pan, place direction in the oven) and bake until it reaches an internal temp of 145°F. This will take about 20 minutes. It will still be slightly pink inside.
  • Let meat rest for 5-10 minutes so juices redistribute. Slice on an angle and serve.

Tips:

  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing: This will help to keep the juices in the meat.
