This was fabulous! I only made half a recipe and had enough rub for 7 pork chops.

Excellent! I made a half recipe. After applying the rub, I roasted this in the oven, without browning the meat first. Took about 25-30 minutes. Near the end, I poured some maple syrup over the tenderloin. Why? Don't know, it just seemed like a good idea. And it WAS! Just a tip: I have a Keurig coffeemaker. I let a couple of the used cups dry and use the very fine grounds for any coffee flavor need such as this one. It works great! Boomette, many thanks for posting. We really liked it. . . . Janet
