Pulled Pork Barbecue

1 whole pork tenderloin, about 1 pound, all fat trimmed
1 teaspoon chili powder
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
Vegetable cooking spray
1/2 cup finely chopped onion
1 1/2 teaspoons minced garlic
1 (14.5-ounce) can crushed tomatoes, undrained

1 tablespoon prepared mustard
1 to 2 teaspoons chili powder
1/4 teaspoon maple extract
1/4 teaspoon liquid smoke
1/3 cup Equal® Spoonful*
Salt and pepper to taste
6 multigrain hamburger buns, split and toasted

1. Rub pork with 1 teaspoon chili powder and garlic powder; place in baking pan. Bake in preheated 425°F oven 30 to 40 minutes or until pork is well browned and juices run clear. Let stand 10 to 15 minutes. Cut into 2 to 3-inch slices; shred slices into bite-size pieces with a fork.
2. Spray medium saucepan with cooking spray. Cook and stir onion and garlic about 5 minutes or until tender. Add tomatoes, vinegar, mustard, chili powder, maple extract, and liquid smoke to saucepan. Heat to boiling; reduce heat.
3. Simmer, uncovered, 10 to 15 minutes or until medium-thick sauce consistency. Stir in Equal®.
