BLACKBERRY JALAPENO GLAZED PORK TENDERLOIN
Steps:
- In a gallon-sized resealable plastic bag, dissolve 1/4 cup of salt in the warm water. Add the vinegar, red pepper flakes, brown sugar, ice cubes and the pork. Brine for exactly 20 minutes. The pork becomes mealy if its brined longer.
- Meanwhile, prepare the Blackberry Jalapeno Glaze.
- Remove the pork from the brine and pat dry. Rub the pork with the olive oil and season with 1 teaspoon salt and freshly cracked black pepper.
- Preheat a grill or grill pan to medium heat.
- Add the pork tenderloin and cook for 6 minutes on each side, browning evenly and the internal temperature registers 135 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. At this point, evenly spread 1/4 cup of the glaze over the pork. Cook for an additional 4 to 5 minutes. Remove the pork from heat to a cutting board and keep it warm tented with aluminum foil.
- Slice the pork, arrange the slices on a serving platter and serve with remaining warm glaze.
- Add the butter to a saucepan over medium-high heat. Once melted, add the jalapenos and garlic and saute for 3 to 4 minutes. Stir in the blackberry preserves and 1 cup wine and combine well. Simmer until reduced by half. Add the cornstarch to the remaining 1/4 cup red wine in a small bowl and mix well. Pour the cornstarch mixture into the pan and cook for 5 to 6 minutes more. Keep the glaze warm until serving.

PORK ROAST WITH ROASTED JALAPEñO GRAVY
Eddie Hernandez, who runs Taqueria del Sol, a string of easygoing Mexican restaurants in Georgia and Tennessee, considers himself a born-again Southern boy whose food reflects a mash-up of the two cultures. He grew up in a working-class neighborhood in Monterrey, Mexico, where a pork roast like this would have never made it onto the table. But he came to love the roast's role in a traditional Southern Sunday supper, and decided to give it his own Mexican twist. It has become one of the most popular specials at his restaurants. The granulated garlic and onion are essential to the flavor. The roast cooks fast in a hot oven that crisps the fat. The residual oven heat roasts the jalapeños while the meat rests. Once you make the roux, the rich gravy for the dish comes together quickly.

Steps:
- Heat oven to 475 degrees. Mix together salt, pepper, granulated garlic and onion. Place the pork on a rack set in a roasting pan and sprinkle the roast with the spice mixture, rubbing it lightly so it adheres to the meat.
- Roast for 30 to 40 minutes or until the pork reaches an internal temperature of 145 degrees. If the fat begins to get too dark, tent with foil.
- While the roast is cooking, make a roux for the gravy by melting the butter in a small saucepan set over medium heat. Add the flour all at once and whisk vigorously until smooth. When the mixture thins and starts to bubble, reduce the heat to low. Cook for 1 to 2 minutes, whisking slowly, until the mixture smells nutty and toasty and is still light colored. Cook for 2 more minutes, stirring occasionally, then set aside and let cool.
- When the roast is done, cover and let it rest for at least 10 minutes. Reduce the oven to 450 degrees. Place the jalapeños in a small pan, brush with oil and roast for 6 minutes, or until soft. Remove the stems and some or all of the seeds and membranes, depending on how hot the peppers are and how hot you want the gravy. Dice the jalapeños.
- Place the half-and-half, stock, salt and jalapeños in a medium saucepan and bring to a boil. Quickly reduce heat to medium. Cook for about 5 minutes, stirring occasionally, until slightly reduced. Stir in 4 tablespoons of the roux and simmer for 2 to 3 minutes, whisking continually, until the sauce is thickened and bubbly. Stir in a little more roux if needed to reach the desired thickness and, if desired, any accumulated juices from the roast. Slice the roast, cover in gravy and serve.

Tips:
- Choose the right cut of pork tenderloin: Look for a tenderloin that is evenly thick and has a pinkish color. Avoid any tenderloins that are bruised or have a lot of fat.
- Butterfly the pork tenderloin: This will help it cook more evenly and quickly. To butterfly the tenderloin, simply slice it lengthwise down the center, but not all the way through. Open it up like a book and pound it to an even thickness.
- Season the pork tenderloin: Season the tenderloin with salt, pepper, and any other desired spices. You can also add a marinade to the tenderloin for extra flavor.
- Cook the pork tenderloin: Pork tenderloin can be cooked in a variety of ways, including grilling, roasting, or pan-frying. The cooking time will vary depending on the method you choose.
- Use a meat thermometer: To ensure that the pork tenderloin is cooked to the desired doneness, insert a meat thermometer into the thickest part of the meat. The internal temperature should reach 145 degrees Fahrenheit for medium-rare or 160 degrees Fahrenheit for medium.
- Let the pork tenderloin rest: After cooking, let the pork tenderloin rest for a few minutes before slicing. This will help the juices redistribute throughout the meat, making it more tender and flavorful.
Conclusion:
Pork tenderloin with jalapeño paste is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that is perfect for any occasion. The pork tenderloin is juicy and tender, while the jalapeño paste adds a bit of spice and flavor. This dish is sure to be a hit with your family and friends.
