Ham For Two

• 2 3/4 cups water
• 1/3 cup packed dark brown sugar
• 1/4 cup kosher salt
• 1 teaspoon curing salt
• 1 (1 lb.) pork tenderloin, trimmed
• 1/2 cup maple syrup
• 1 1/2 teaspoons black pepper

1. Place water, sugar, and salts in a saucepan over high heat stirring until sugar dissolves, 4 to 5 minutes. Let cool to room temperature.
2. Place pork in a nonreactive bowl or glass baking dish. Pour brine over pork. Refrigerate 24 hours.
3. Preheat oven to 400u0b0.
4. Place pork on a rack in a roasting pan. Roast at 400u0b0 on the middle rack of oven for 10 minutes. Combine syrup and pepper; brush pork with maple mixture. Continue cooking pork until a thermometer inserted into the pork registers 130u0b0, about 15 to 18 minutes, brushing with maple mixture every 5 minutes. Turn broiler to low. Continue cooking pork until a thermometer inserted into the pork registers 140u0b0 and pork is pinkish brown and caramelized, about 5 to 7 minutes. Remove from oven. Let stand 10 minutes. Slice and serve with remaining glaze.
