Sweet Pecan Rub the perfect sweet, savory, smoky combo. We love it on ribs on the grill. And it’s a great weeknight solution for pork tenderloin. Another great idea?This pulled chicken! It’s excellent on this slider with a cool, creamy coleslaw. Ready for a sweet surprise? We work our Pineapple White Balsamic Vinegar into the slaw for a cool and tangy topping for these fun sandwiches. Dig In!
