RUM SPICE GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a small saucepan over medium low heat add the olive oil and 3 cloves minced garlic.
• Sauté for only a minute until the garlic softens, then add the brown sugar, 1/2 tsp salt,ginger, rum, Tabasco Sauce and jalapeno pepper. Simmer slowly for about 5 minutes until the glaze thickens slightly.
• Mix all of the ingredients for the Spice Rub together and rub over the entire surface of the pork tenderloin/s.
• Heat the vegetable oil in a skillet or frying pan over medium to medium high heat.
• Lightly brown the pork tenderloin/s on all sides.
• Brush some of the glaze onto the pork tenderloin before placing it in a preheated 375 degree oven for about 20-25 minutes depending on the thickness of the tenderloins being used. I use a meat thermometer to test the meat and take it out of the oven when the temperature reaches 140-150 degrees F. You can brush more glaze onto the meat half way through the cooking time.
• It is important to cover the meat with aluminum foil and let it rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. Spoon extra glaze over the pork when serving
