Made with mustard, brown sugar, and a splash of cider vinegar, this sandwich’s sauce is inspired by South Carolina–style barbecue. It’s said that the sauce came to be when the state’s immigrant German population added mustard to the barbecue sauce created and popularized by enslaved Africans.

Ingredients

1 Tbsp. olive oil
1 clove garlic, grated
1/4 cup yellow mustard
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup cider vinegar
2 Tbsp. packed light brown sugar
2 Tbsp. honey
1 tsp. hot sauce
1 tsp. Worcestershire sauce
1 1-pound pork tenderloin, trimmed
Kosher salt and pepper
4 ciabatta rolls, split and grilled
1 heart romaine, thinly sliced
4 mini colored peppers, very thinly sliced

Directions

1. Step 1Heat grill to medium-high. Heat oil and garlic in small saucepan on medium until fragrant, 30 seconds. Add mustards, vinegar, brown sugar, honey, hot sauce, and Worcestershire sauce and whisk to combine. Simmer, stirring occasionally, until thickened, about 3 minutes; remove from heat (you should have about 3/4 cup).
2. Step 2Season pork with 1/2 teaspoon each salt and pepper and grill, covered, turning occasionally, 12 minutes. Continue grilling, basting with 1/4 cup sauce, until instant-read thermometer registers 145°F, 3 to 6 minutes more. Transfer pork to cutting board and let rest at least 5 minutes before thinly slicing.
3. Step 3Drizzle bottom pieces of rolls with 1/2 tablespoon sauce each, then make sandwiches with lettuce, peppers and pork. Drizzle with remaining sauce and add tops to make sandwiches.
