COFFEE-RUBBED GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN TACOS WITH PINEAPPLE CUCUMBER SALSA

Steps:

• For the pork tenderloin tacos: Preheat an outdoor grill to high heat on one side and medium-low heat on the other. Mix to combine the brown sugar, chili powder, coffee grounds, garlic powder, onion powder, paprika, 1 1/2 teaspoons salt and 1/2 teaspoon black pepper in a small bowl. Brush the pork tenderloins all over with the oil, then sprinkle over the dry rub on all sides.
• Grill the pork on the high-heat side until it is nicely charred on all sides, 8 to 10 minutes. Move the pork to the medium-low heat side of the grill for indirect grilling. Cover the grill and continue grilling until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloin registers 150 degrees F, 10 to 12 minutes longer. Remove from the grill and tent loosely with aluminum foil. Let the pork rest for 10 minutes. Thinly slice for tacos.
• To warm the tortillas, heat the tortillas on the grill over low heat, turning once to brown them up a bit. Wrap them in foil to keep them warm until it's time to eat.
• For the pineapple cucumber salsa: Stir to combine the pineapple, cucumber, jalapeno, lime juice, onion, cilantro, 1/2 teaspoon salt and 1/4 teaspoon black pepper in a large bowl.
• For the assembly: To build each taco, place some pork onto a tortilla. Top with some shredded cabbage, pineapple cucumber salsa, sour cream and cilantro. Serve with lime wedges.

• Place the tenderloins on the grill. Cover the grill and cook, turning every 5 minutes, until the tenderloins are browned all over and an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part registers 145°F to 150°F, about 20 to 30 minutes.
• Transfer the tenderloins to a cutting board and let them rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Cut crosswise into 1/2-inch-thick slices and serve.

COFFEE RUBBED GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN WITH ESPRESSO GRILLING SAUCE RECIPE - (4.4/5)

Steps:

• For the Rub: Mix ingredients. Yield: 2 Tbsp. Rub over pork tenderloin. Cover and refrigerate meat or leave out at room temperature for up to 1 hour before grilling. For the sauce: Combine all ingredients in medium saucepan. Bring to a boil, lower heat and simmer until slightly thickened, about 5 minutes. Store in a tightly closed container for up to 1 month. Use it to baste or accompany beef, lamb, duck, wild game or pork. Yield: about 2-1/3 cups Grilling instructions: Leave rubbed tenderloin out at room temperature about 45 minutes before grilling. Heat gas grill to 425F with one burner turned off. (Turn on all burners and get grill very hot; then turn off one burner and adjust to 425F.) Oil grates using a wadded paper towel that's been dipped in vegetable oil. Place meat on oiled grates over a burner that's lit. Sear meat about 4-5 minutes per side, then transfer to a burner that's not lit to finish cooking. Baste meat with grilling sauce once when transferring to turn-off burner, and again in about 10 minutes. Cooking time will depend on thickness of meat. It's not necessary to turn the meat once it's on the turned-off burner. Check for doneness with a meat thermometer that's placed in the side of the fattest part of meat. Be sure thermometer only goes to the center part of the meat, and not all the way through. Baste, then remove meat when thermometer registers 155F. Cover and let rest 10-15 minutes before slicing. If desired, serve additional sauce with meat a serving time.
