The coffee chili cocoa is a dry rub. Its a classic. SOme cat down in TX started doing it back in the 80's. Its not groundbreaking or anything, but its effin delicious. The cranberry chutney was just a nod to the NW. And pork tenderloin LOVES chutneys.
Chutney has potential, but there once was a kid's cartoon that said something about "no fun to eat if you can't see your food, don't drown your food."

Do you have an easy recipe? Could I use it on some thick-cut chops?

Using that logic:
No ketchup for fries
No syrup for pancakes
No gravy for biscuits
No cheese sauce for macaroni.
No red sauce for pasta

Shall I go on?

I remember the dont drown your food skit, too. Wasnt it in the "Time for Timer!" (or whatever) series? The yuck mouth, the hankerin for a hunk of, a slice a bit, a chunk of, hankerin for a hunk of cheeeeeeese, guy. Love that one!

Either way, youre reaching.

I agree. For chutney:

1 lb whole cranberries
1 c sugar
2 T dijon mustard
2 t salt

combine all in saucepan, heat over low heat, cook until its thick and syrupy, and cranberries have started to break down.

Ive never made this by the way, so I cant vouch for it, but it sounds good to me.

I agree wth Heu's recipe, by the way, but Id add salt and pepper to the rub, and Id grind up some dried cillies, like anchos instead of using store bought chili powder. Flavor is so much beter, but if its about time, go for the store bought chili powder.
