Ingredients: BBQ Chip Dust:  2 teaspoons light brown sugar  2 teaspoons kosher salt 2 teaspoons dry ancho chile powder 1 teaspoon garlic powder 1 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper 1 teaspoon onion powder 1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper Pork Tenderloin: 2 pork tenderloins, trimmed and silver skin removed 3 tablespoons BBQ Chip Dust 3 fennel bulbs, sliced thin 2 Granny Smith apples, cored and sliced thin 1/2 red cabbage, sliced thin 1 red onion, sliced thin 2 tablespoons olive oil 1 teaspoon caraway seeds 1 tablespoon kosher salt 1 tablespoon fresh cracked black pepper Cooking spray, for greasing Golden Mustard Sauce: 1/2 cup white wine vinegar  1/4 cup golden raisins 1 clove garlic, grated 1 tablespoon honey 2 tablespoons yellow mustard 1 tablespoon whole-grain mustard 1 tablespoon chopped fresh parsley 2 tablespoons cold unsalted butter Kosher salt and black pepper to taste Directions For the bbq chip dust: Combine in a small bowl the brown sugar, salt, chile powder, garlic powder, black pepper, onion powder and cayenne pepper. Set aside. For the pork tenderloin: Line a sheet pan with a wire rack. Sprinkle the bbq chip dust (about 3 tablespoons) all over both tenderloins. Place on the sheet pan in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or up to 5 hours. Once ready to start cooking, take them out of the fridge for 30 minutes to 1 hour to take the chill off. Preheat the oven to 425 degrees F. Mix the fennel, apples, cabbage, onion, oil, caraway seeds, salt and pepper. Spray a nonstick baking sheet with cooking spray. Place the fennel and apple mixture in an even layer on the pan. Place the pork tenderloins right on top of the mixture about 6 inches apart.  Roast for about 15 to 20 minutes, flipping the pork halfway through and stirring the vegetables and apple to ensure even browning. Cook until the pork registers 150 to 155 degrees F internal temperature. Take the pork out of the oven and let it rest. If necessary, place the veggies and apple back in the oven to finish crisping and caramelizing until deep golden brown, another 15 to 20 minutes. Meanwhile, for the golden mustard sauce: Place the vinegar, raisins and garlic in a small saucepan. Bring to a simmer and then remove from the heat and cool slightly. While warm, whisk in the honey, yellow mustard, whole-grain mustard, parsley and cold butter. Whisk until smooth and season with salt and pepper. Once the pork has rested at least 10 minutes, slice it into medallions. Serve on a bed of the fennel, apple and onion mixture. Top with golden mustard sauce.
