Directions:Trim the pork of any silver skin and excess fat, and cut each h tenderloin on the diagonal into four pieces about 2 inches thick. Turn the pieces is that they're lying on a cut side, and using a meat mallet, a small heavy skillet, or the heel of your hand, lightly pound the steaks so they're about ½ inch thick.
In a small bowl, mix the chili powder, cumin, brown sugar, garlic powder, 2 tsp salt, and 1 tsp black pepper. Rub this spice mixture all over the pork and let sit for at least 15 minutes at room temperature. Refrigerate for up to 2 hours.
Heat a gas grill to medium high. When the grill is ready, cook the pork, covered, until it forms nice grill marks about 3 minutes. Flip and continue cooking until just firm to the touch but still a little pink in the center. (an instant read thermometer inserted into the center of each steak should register 140ºF), another 3 to 4 minutes.
Transfer the pork to a large serving platter and let rest, tented with foil. Meanwhile, in a small bowl, stir the honey, vinegar, tomato paste, chipotle and adobo sauce, and mustard, and season with salt and pepper to taste. Spoon the sauce over the pork. |
