01
Step 1
Start by heating your grill to medium-high. While it warms up, cut the pork tenderloin into about 9 slices and give them a light brush with olive oil. Sprinkle with freshly ground black pepper to your liking.

Step 2
Once the grill is ready, place the pork slices on it and cook for 3 to 4 minutes on each side, until they’re no longer pink in the middle. When they’re done, transfer the meat to a plate and let it rest for about 5 minutes to keep it juicy.

Step 3
While the pork is grilling, mix together the sugar, Worcestershire sauce, vinegar, Dijon mustard, chopped onion, minced garlic, red pepper flakes, and horseradish in a small saucepan. Warm it over medium heat, stirring occasionally until everything is combined and smooth.
