This easy recipe was brought to The Times in a 1994 article about winter grilling, but many readers love this dish year round. Marian Burros called for cutting the pork tenderloin into slices before marinating it in a simple mixture of garlic, red wine and fresh rosemary before grilling, but it works just as well with whole tenderloins and dried rosemary.
