By: Andrea Alden

Originally prepared for the first time in September of 2011, this Maple Planked Pork Tenderloin With Brown Sugar BBQ Rub has gone through a few upgrades since then. Still smoked on a maple plank, the rub has been refined into a delicious crust that perfectly complements the pork flavor. This pork tenderloin dinner is easy to throw together, can feed a few people, or make delicious leftovers – whichever works best in your household.

Ingredients

2

pork tenderloins

3 tbsp.

brown sugar or maple sugar

1 tbsp.

kosher salt

1 tsp.

Bone Dust BBQ Seasoning

1 tsp.

paprika

1 tsp.

garlic powder

1 tsp.

parsley

3 tsp.

mustard powder

1 tbsp.

Club House La Grille Maple Bacon Seasoning

2

maple planks

pepper to taste

Method
  1. Soak your plank for at least one hour before beginning.
  2. Preheat the grill to between 350°F and 375°F, preparing to use the indirect grilling method. Place the soaked planks on the grill between the two lit burners to preheat.
  3. In a small bowl mix together all of the seasonings. Pat the tenderloin dry with paper towel. Massage the seasoning mixture into the meat and then place each tenderloin on a plank.
  4. Grill roast the planked tenderloins for approximately 45 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads at least 145°F. Remove the planks and pork from the grill. Remember to periodically check on the pork and planks. Have a spray bottle handy if your plank catches fire or begins to smolder.
  5. Set the planks onto a heat safe surface and allow them to rest for 5 to 10 minutes before slicing and serving.

After spending the day preparing food for a photo shoot, I really had no interest in cooking dinner. Instead of giving up and ordering in, I threw together this delightful ditty and put my feet up while it cooked. In less than an hour, I had a delicious meal with minimal fuss.
