4/16/2000 -  Pork Tenderloin with Moorish Sauce


The Marinate Recipe

Credit where credit is due - this recipe was modified from "The Barbecue! Bible" by Steven Raichlen called 'Pork with Moorish Seasonings' - The book was an early birthday present from my favorite friend and I decided to try something different.

05:15pm - on the grill - smells really great. The tenderloin was in the marinate at 8:15 this morning - I was only missing one ingredient  - some call the missing ingredient 'Spanish Saffron' - my wife calls it 'Spanish Gold' - at $96+ dollars per ounce, I think I agree with my wife.

Another shot of the tenderloin on the BGE. Both of these pictures were taken within moments - I couldn't decide which to post, so I used both.

The marinate added a very interesting taste - mostly on the outside of the tenderloin - kind of spicy with lots of flavor. 

Next time we'll poke a few holes over the surface to let the marinate penetrate deeper into the meat.

Just a nice twist to an always good pork tenderloin!
