  • Preheat an outdoor grill for medium-high heat and lightly oil the grate.
  • Generously season pork tenderloin with garlic salt and pepper.
  • Cook pork on the preheated grill, turning twice on each side, until no longer pink in the center, 6 to 7 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C). Remove pork from grill and cover with aluminum foil; let rest for 5 minutes. Slice pork and place on a serving platter.
  • Melt butter in a skillet over medium heat; add apples. Cover skillet and cook for 5 minutes. Stir apples and sprinkle with sugar; reduce heat to low. Cover skillet and cook apples for 5 more minutes. Remove cover; cook and stir until apples are lightly browned, 2 to 3 more minutes. Spoon apples over sliced pork.
