Ground coffee is the secret ingredient in this special rub, which could also be used on beef steaks.—Mark Morgan, Waterford, Wisconsin Tip: Pair this pork with Pineapple Pepper Salsa.
Ingredients:
1 tablespoon finely ground coffee
1 teaspoon kosher salt
1 teaspoon brown sugar
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon ground cumin
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon pepper
1/4 teaspoon garlic powder
additional ingredients (for each batch):
1 pork tenderloin (1 pound)
1 tablespoon canola oil
Directions:
1. In a small bowl, combine the first eight ingredients. Transfer to a small spice jar. Store in a cool dry place for up to 2 months. Yield: 3 batches (3 tablespoons total).
2. To prepare pork tenderloin: Brush pork with oil; rub with 1 tablespoon seasoning mix. Cover and refrigerate at least 2 hours or overnight.
3. Prepare grill for indirect heat. Grill pork, covered, over indirect medium-hot heat for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Let stand for 5 minutes before slicing. Yield: 4 servings per batch.
