+ 2 pork tenderloins (about 2 lbs. total), trimmed
Spice Rub: + 1 Tbsp. chili powder + 1 Tbsp. garlic powder + 1/2 Tbsp. sugar + 1 tsp. salt + 1/2 tsp. ground black pepper Glaze: + 1-1/2 c. apricot preserves + 1/2 c. barbeque sauce + 1 tsp. fresh ginger root, grated + 1/2 tsp. garlic powder + 1/2 tsp. hot sauce + 1 Tbsp. cilantro, chopped + juice of 1 lime What to do:
1. Place chili powder, garlic powder, sugar, salt and pepper in a jar; shake to blend. Rub spice mixture onto pork tenderloins. Cover tenderloins and refrigerate for 2 to 24 hrs.
2. Prior to grilling, melt apricot preserves in saucepan over medium heat. Remove pan from the heat and stir in remaining glaze ingredients. Place half of the glaze in a serving bowl and hold for service. 3. Prepare grill at medium-high heat. Grill pork tenderloins for 20-27 min., or until the internal temperature of the pork reaches 145°F on an instant-read thermometer. When approximately 4 min. of cook time remains, brush the pork tenderloins with the apricot glaze remaining in the pan. Cook for 2 min., turn the pork tenderloins and brush glaze on other side. Cook for an additional 2 min. Remove pork from the grill and let set for about 5 min. before slicing. Serve with reserved glaze. * Recipe and photo courtesy of National Pork Board.
