Preparation

Step 1

Mix all ingredients except pork loin to make a rub. Rub into loins and let set covered in fridge for a bit. More time - more intensity in flavor. Over hot grill, cook 4-6 minutes, turning frequently, until pork is no longer pink. (it should feel like the bottom of your palm, under your thumb, when you make a light first).

Step 2

NOTE: I have cooked these (loins) in the oven middle rack under the broiler turning once until done.
