Grilled Pork Tenderloin image

Alton Brown's Grilled Pork Tenderloin recipe, from Good Eats on Food Network, stays moist thanks to hours of soaking in a sweet and sharp lime-based marinade.

Provided by Alton Brown

Categories     main-dish

Time 6h35m

Yield 4 servings

Number Of Ingredients 9

1 whole pork tenderloin, approximately 1 pound
1 lime, zest finely grated
1/2 cup freshly squeezed lime juice
1/4 cup honey
1 1/2 teaspoons kosher salt
1/2 teaspoon garlic powder
1 chipotle chile pepper in adobo sauce
1 teaspoon vegetable oil
1 tablespoon chopped fresh cilantro leaves

Steps:

  • Trim the pork tenderloin of any excess fat and silver skin.
  • Place the lime zest, lime juice, honey, salt, and garlic powder in a small, lidded jar and shake to combine. Pour half of the marinade mixture into a 1-gallon resealable bag, add the chipotle pepper, and move around to combine. Add the pork tenderloin to the bag and seal, removing as much air as possible and place in a container to catch any leaks. Marinate in the refrigerator for 6 to 24 hours, rotating the bag halfway through the time. Place the remaining marinade in a covered container and refrigerate until ready to use.
  • Remove the tenderloin from the bag and allow to sit at room temperature while preparing the grill. Remove the reserved marinade from the refrigerator.
  • Fill a large chimney starter with natural lump charcoal and light. Once the charcoal is ashy and white, approximately 30 minutes, dump the hot charcoal onto the lowest grate of the grill and spread into an even layer using extra-long tongs. Place the cooking grate back on the grill and cover with the lid; heat the grate to medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
  • Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Remove the tenderloin from the bag and place in the center of grate. Discard bag with marinade. Cover and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until the tenderloin reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F.
  • Remove the tenderloin from the grill and place on a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil folded at the edges to create a basket, and pour on the reserved marinade. Wrap tightly and rest for 10 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and slice. Garnish with cilantro and serve.

GRILLED JERK PORK TENDERLOIN



Grilled Jerk Pork Tenderloin image

I feel that the apple cider makes this jerk marinade unique, and a bit untraditional. Being from the apple country of Virginia, the apple cider was a natural. For added flavor, add apple or hickory wood chips soaked in water on top of the hot coals. You can begin grilling when the chips start smoking. Grilled pineapple goes well with this as a side dish.

Time 1h

Yield 4

Number Of Ingredients 11

2 tablespoons brown sugar
2 tablespoons Jamaican jerk seasoning
1 teaspoon ground paprika
1 teaspoon ground thyme
½ teaspoon dried oregano
½ teaspoon seafood seasoning (such as Old Bay®)
1 pinch crushed red pepper, or to taste
1 (1 1/2 pound) pork tenderloin
4 slices bacon, or more to taste
1 tablespoon olive oil, or more as needed
½ medium sweet onion, diced

Steps:

  • Preheat the oven to 375 degrees F (190 degrees C).
  • Combine brown sugar, jerk seasoning, paprika, thyme, oregano, seafood seasoning, and crushed red pepper in a bowl; rub generously all over the tenderloin. Wrap with bacon and secure with toothpicks. Coat lightly with oil and place in a loaf pan or casserole dish. Sprinkle any remaining spice rub on top, cover with some diced onion, and surround with remaining onion.
  • Bake, uncovered, in the preheated oven until pork is slightly pink in the center, 45 to 60 minutes. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

Tips:

  • Using a sharp knife, score the pork tenderloin all over. This will help the marinade penetrate the meat and make it more flavorful.
  • Make sure to marinate the pork tenderloin for at least 30 minutes, but no longer than 24 hours. Over-marinating can make the meat tough.
  • When grilling the pork tenderloin, cook it over medium heat and turn it every few minutes to prevent it from burning.
  • Use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature of the pork tenderloin. It is done when it reaches 145 degrees Fahrenheit.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10 minutes before slicing and serving. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat.

Conclusion:

Jamaican BBQ Pork Tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The tenderloin is marinated in a flavorful blend of spices and herbs, then grilled to perfection. Serve it with your favorite sides, such as rice and beans, coleslaw, or grilled pineapple.
