• 2 pieces pork tenderloins
• 3 tablespoons olive oil
• 10 pieces garlic cloves
• ½ cup Caramba! Spicy Barbecue Sauce
• 2 tablespoons lemon juice
• 1 tablespoon parsley, chopped (optional)
• 4 pieces lemon wheel (optional)

Pork Spice Rub

• 3 tablespoons brown sugar
• 2 teaspoons paprika
• 2 teaspoons Italian seasoning
• 1 teaspoon black pepper ground
• 1 teaspoon iodized salt
• 1 teaspoon garlic powder

1. Rinse the tenderloins under cold running water and blot dry with a paper towel.
2. Combine all ingredients for the rub in a small bowl. Rub and massage the spices onto the meat covering it well.
3. Wrap the tenderloins in plastic wrap and let them marinate in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or as long as overnight.
4. Pre-heat oven at 400°F (200°C) for 10 minutes.
5. Heat a large oven-proof heavy cast iron or stainless steel pan over high heat. Add oil to the pan and sauté garlic cloves for 5 minutes.

7. Mix Caramba! Spicy Barbecue Sauce and lemon juice in a cup and pour over the meat.
8. Place the pan in the preheated oven. Bake for 30 to 45 minutes or until the pork is done.
