Ingredients
editMarinade
edit- 1 ea. (~2.25 lb / 1 kg) pork tenderloin, trimmed
- ¼ cup freshly-squeezed lime juice
- ¼ cup honey
- 1 ½ tsp salt
- 2 tbsp apple cider vinegar
- ¼ cup apple cider
Rub
edit- 2 tbsp paprika
- ½ tbsp garlic powder
- 1 ⅓ tbsp cayenne pepper
- ½ tbsp chipotle powder
- ½ tbsp black pepper
- ½ tbsp dried rosemary
Grill
edit- 4 lb natural chunk charcoal
- ½ pound soaked applewood chips
- 2 tsp vegetable oil
- 1 sheet newspaper
Procedure
edit- Combine marinade ingredients in a small saucepan. Pour half into a large zip-top plastic bag, reserving the other half in the fridge. Add pork to the bag, remove extra air, and marinate in the fridge for 24 hours.
- Remove pork from marinade. Discard the bag and the marinade in the bag. Allow the pork to drain as necessary.
- Combine rub ingredients, and rub all over pork.
- Moisten newspaper with oil and wad up under a large chimney starter with charcoal in it. Light and wait 15 minutes.
- Once charcoal has heated, disperse evenly around bottom of grill. Add soaked chips, replace grate, and place pork in the center. Cover and cook for 1 ½ minutes (or a bit more, use your judgment).
- Flip to another side and cook 1 ½ more minutes and repeat until pork has cooked for at least 12 minutes and until the internal temperature reaches at least 145°F (63˚C).
- Make a large foil pouch (or use a covered dish) and place pork inside. Pour in reserved marinade (warmed to at least 145°F) and let rest for 10 minutes.
- Serve.
