Grilled Pork Tenderloin with Mustard Seeds
Total time: 35 minutes
This is fun to cook on the barbecue grill: all the mustard seeds pop as they get hot. The rub makes the tenderloin rather black, but not too spicy. The sauce helps keep it moist. Remember, slightly pink is perfect!
Ingredients:
- 14oz 420gr) pork tenderloin
- 1 tbs paprika
- 1 tbs mustard seed
- 1 tbs garlic powder
- 1 tbs olive oil
- Basting Sauce:
- 3 tbs Dijon mustard
- 2 tbs red wine vinegar
- 1 tbs olive oil
Instructions:
- Mix paprika, mustard seeds and garlic powder.
- Rub olive oil all over pork then add dry rub and press into pork.
- Cook on barbecue grill or in 400F oven for 25 - 30 minutes. Turn occasionally to brown on all sides.
- Mix mustard, vinegar, oil, and use to baste pork after 15 minutes.
- Baste 2 - 3 times.
- When you think pork is done, (it should feel fairly firm but not totally stiff when you pick it up) slice into the middle to check. It will be moist when not overcooked. When done to your taste, slice and serve.
