Grilled Pork Tenderloin With Bourbon Glaze
I served this over the summer when we had houseguests and everyone wanted the recipe.it's a kentucky-style barbeque with a paprika-based rub first and then a delicious bourbon glaze to finish the tenderloin.i think this would be good with baby back ribs too!prep time does not include marinading time.!
Steps
Trim any excess fat or sinews off the tenderloin and arrange the meat in a baking dish.
To make the rub , place the rub ingredients in a small bowl and mix well with your fingers.
Sprinkle this mixture over the pork on all sides , and rub it into the meat.
Marinate the meat in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
To make the glaze , melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.
Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute.
Add the bourbon and the rest of the glaze ingredients and briskly simmer the mixture over high heat , whisking well , until thick and syrupy , 2 to 4 minutes.
Remove from the heat and add salt and pepper to taste: the mixture should be highly seasoned.
Pour half the glaze into a small bowl.
Grill the pork tenderloin over high heat until golden brown and cooked through , 3 to 4 minutes per side , 12 to 16 minutes in all.
Internal temperature should be 160 drgrees.
For the last 5 minutes , baste the tenderloin on all sides with the bourbon glaze in the bowl.
Transfer .
