Tired of the same old beef and chicken? Get outside and grill the "other white meat" for a barbecue.


Ingredients


  • 2 whole pork tenderloins (about - 1 1/2 lbs. total) or 6 pork chops

  • 4 teaspoons chili powder

  • 1 1/2 teaspoons dried oregano

  • 3/4 teaspoon ground cumin

  • 1/8 teaspoon dried garlic powder



Directions

1. Mix together chili powder, oregano, cumin, and garlic powder. Rub over the surface of pork. Cover and refrigerate 2-24 hours.



2. Grill over medium hot coals, or broil. Turn occasionally. Tenderloins will take 25-20 minutes, pork chops will be ready in 10-15 minutes. Meat thermometer should read 155-160° F. Pork is done when there is still a hint of pink in the center.



Makes 6 servings (approx 4 oz.)
