Grilled Chipotle Crusted Pork Tenderloin

Pork tenderloins are coated in a smoky and sweet rub, then grilled to perfection for an easy dinner any day of the week. 


Sunday Supper is a simple concept..."eat a great meal around the table with your family".  

This is a concept that is near and dear to my heart.  A concept I have always believed in and practiced in my own family and even now that two of my kids are gone away to college, I still practice daily with my youngest son.  But it is more than just about the food...it is about families spending quality time together.  It is about making a commitment to one another. It is about positive communication.

During the month of September, I will be joining Allrecipes in celebrating #Sunday Supper.

Allrecipes has put together a recipe collection that is perfect for sharing Sunday Supper with your family.  Healthy, tasty meals that everyone will enjoy.

Chipotle Crusted Pork Tenderloin is one of those recipes in the collection.  It's wonderful.  I only made a few changes to the original recipe.  I cut the chili powder called for in half and I didn't put the tenderloins in the refrigerator once they were coated in the rub so that they could come closer to room temperature before grilling to make for a more even cooking. If you scroll through the pictures for this recipe on AR, you might even spot the one above, which was my contribution to the gallery!
