Total Time 10 minutes
Servings6 people

Ingredients

  • 2 tablespoons extra virgin olive oil
  • 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
  • 3 cloves garlic finely minced or pressed
  • 1 teaspoon smoked paprika
  • 1 teaspoon chili powder
  • ¼ teaspoon chipotle chili powder
  • ½ teaspoon oregano
  • 2 pork tenderloins
  • kosher salt and black pepper

Glaze:

  • 4 tablespoons honey
  • 1 teaspoon apple cider vinegar

Instructions

  • Whisk olive oil, vinegar, garlic, paprika, chili powders and oregano together and add pork to coat well. Marinate overnight or 4-6 hours preferred.
  • When ready to cook, heat smoker to 225°.  Transfer pork to smoker, sprinkle with kosher salt and pepper, and close lid.
  • Cook to an internal temperature of 145° and remove from smoker. Tent in foil to rest while you prep glaze.
  • Combine honey and apple cider vinegar and drizzle over sliced pork.

Notes

  • Store leftover pork in an airtight container in the fridge and consume within 3-4 days for best results.
  • If you don't have a smoker, simply cook your tenderloins directly on the grill. They usually take about 5-8 minutes per side. Cook to a minimum internal temperature of 145°F. If you like your pork a little more done, remove from the grill at 150°F.
