A delightful grilled pork tenderloin recipe with a sweet and spicy glaze, perfect for any occasion.
Combine the chili powder, garlic powder, dry mustard, smoked paprika, and dried thyme in a small bowl.
Mix the spices thoroughly to ensure an even distribution of flavors.
Rub the spice mixture evenly over the pork tenderloin.
Let the pork sit for 10 minutes to allow the spices to infuse.
Preheat the grill to medium heat.
Ensure the grill is clean and lightly oiled to prevent sticking.
Place the pork on the grill and cover. Cook for 20 minutes, turning occasionally.
Use tongs to turn the pork to avoid piercing the meat and losing juices.
Mix the honey and soy sauce in a small bowl.
Stir the glaze until the honey is fully dissolved into the soy sauce.
Brush the glaze over the pork and continue grilling for another 5-10 minutes, turning and brushing occasionally, until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 160°F.
Use a meat thermometer to ensure the pork is cooked to the correct temperature.
Remove the pork from the grill and let it rest, covered with foil, for 5 minutes before slicing.
Resting allows the juices to redistribute, making the pork tender and juicy.
