Ingredients

Pork Tenderloin

  • 2 lbs. pork tenderloin typically comes in a package of 2 1-lb. pork tenderloins

Dry Rub

Marinade

Carrots

Instructions

Pork Tenderloin

  • Pat pork tenderloin dry with a paper towel.
  • Mix dry rub ingredients together in a small bowl and then season both pork tenderloins on all sides. Use your hands to rub it in.
  • Whisk together the marinade ingredients in a separate bowl. Then, pour the marinade into a large Stasher bag or Ziploc. Add dry-rubbed pork tenderloins to the bag and make sure they are completely submerged. Seal the bag and let the pork marinate in the fridge for at least 2 hours or overnight.
  • When ready to cook, heat grill to 450°F - 500°F.
  • When the grill is preheated, carefully spray grill grates with a little cooking spray (be careful this will ignite the flames) and sear pork tenderloins over direct heat for 2 minutes per side.
  • Then, turn ½ the burners to low and move pork tenderloin to the low heat side, leaving the other side burners on high. Your grill should drop down to around 400ºF.
  • Grill pork tenderloin for around 12 minutes*, flipping halfway through. Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork. It should reach an internal temperature of at least 145ºF.
  • Remove from the grill and let rest for at least 5 minutes.
  • Use a sharp knife to slice pork tenderloin and serve it with the grilled carrots.

Tips & Notes

  • Cook time depends on the thickness of the pork tenderloin. We used 2 l-lb. pork tenderloins, but if you are using a single 2 lb. tenderloin, it will take longer. Just make sure it gets to an internal temperature of 145ºF.
