I took this from Leite's Culinaria http://www.leitesculinaria.com/recipes/jbh/sugar_pork.html (It is a part of a recipe by Neal Langermann of Georgia Brown Washington, DC.) He also includes a gravy and a succotash with the tenderloin and you can find those with the link above. Cooking time here includes brining time.

Steps:
- To brine the pork, combine all of the ingredients for the brine in deep bowl. Trim the pork tenderloin of all silverskin and place in the bowl. Cover and refrigerate for 12 hours.
- To finish the pork, combine the brown sugar, cinnamon, star anise, Szechuan peppercorns, salt, and pepper in a spice or coffee grinder and process until ground to a powder.
- Preheat the own to 350°F (175°C).
- Remove the pork from the brine and pat dry.
- Coat the pork with the spice mixture, pressing it on to form an even crust.
- Heat the olive oil in an ovenproof pan and sear the pork on all sides. Place the pan in the oven and roast pork for about 20 minutes, or until the pork has reached the desired doneness.
- To serve, carve the pork into 1/2-inch-thick slices.

[email protected]I tried this recipe but the pork was a bit dry. I think I might have overcooked it. I'll try it again and cook it for a shorter amount of time.

[email protected]I'm not a big fan of pork, but this recipe changed my mind! The sugar and spice rub really enhances the flavor of the meat, and the apple cider vinegar adds a nice tang. I will definitely be making this again.

[email protected]This recipe is a bit too sweet for my taste. I would recommend using less sugar in the rub, or omitting it altogether.

[email protected]So good! I used a pork loin instead of a tenderloin, and it turned out great. I also added a little bit of brown sugar to the rub, and it gave the meat a nice caramelized crust.

[email protected]This pork tenderloin recipe is a keeper! The sugar and spice rub gives the meat a delicious flavor, and the apple cider vinegar adds a nice tang. I served it with roasted potatoes and green beans, and it was a hit with my family.
