You know that we are big fans of mustard over here at TravelFoodCool. What’s better than mustard in a recipe? Double mustard! Pork tenderloin and mustard are a great combo! The flavours go really well together and when you add a little brown sugar, look out! No leftovers!
This recipe is so easy to make with only 4 ingredients (okay 7 ingredients, if you count the salt, pepper and water) which you probably have on hand. Versatility? It can be cooked in the oven or on the barbecue. It’s an easy meal to prepare, especially when you are running short on time. The extra mustard brown sugar sauce that you use to cook the pork does double duty as a sauce on the side. Double mustard + double duty = double delicious!
