Steps:

- Allow pork to sit at room temperature while preparing the grill.
- Preheat grill to medium heat and brush the grates with vegetable oil (to prevent sticking).

GRILLED TENDERLOIN WITH SPICY POMEGRANATE SAUCE
This is a revelation! I made this with sweet potatoe fries on the grill. The Pomegranate sauce is rocking . I dipped everything in it. It probably wouldnt hurt to double the sauce recipe since you can always use it for something. The jalapeno had a very nice smooth bite to this recipe but it was mild enough to make my DD lick her plate. ENJOY!

Steps:
- Prepare beef: Trim off excess fat with a sharp knife. Fold thin tip end under to approximate the thickness of the rest of the roast. Tie with butcher's twine, then keep tying the roast with twine every 11/2 to 2 inches (to help the roast keep its shape). Snip silverskin with scissors to keep roast from bowing during cooking. Then, mix oil, garlic, rosemary, thyme, pepper and salt; rub over roast to coat. Set meat aside.
- Either build a charcoal fire in half the grill or turn all gas burners on high for 10 minutes. Lubricate grate with an oil-soaked rag using tongs. Place beef on hot rack and close lid; grill until well-seared, about 5 minutes. Turn meat and close lid; grill until well-seared on second side, another 5 minutes.
- Move meat to the charcoal grill's cool side, or turn off burner directly underneath the meat and turn remaining one or two burners (depending on grill style) to medium. Cook until a meat thermometer inserted in the thickest section registers 130 degrees for rosy pink, 45 to 60 minutes, depending on tenderloin size and grill. Let meat rest 15 minutes before carving.

Steps:
- Preheat oven to 350 degrees. In a large ovenproof skillet, heat oil over medium-high. Generously season pork with salt and pepper; cook in skillet until browned on all sides, 6 to 8 minutes. Transfer skillet to oven, and roast until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the thickest part of tenderloin registers 150 degrees, 10 to 15 minutes. Transfer pork to a platter (reserve skillet), and tent with aluminum foil.
- Carefully return skillet to stove. Add pomegranate juice, molasses, and currants to skillet, and bring to a boil over medium-high. Cook until sauce is thickened to a glaze, 5 to 6 minutes. (To test: Coat the back of a spoon with sauce, and run your finger through it to make a line; the glaze is ready when the line doesn't fill in.) To serve, thinly slice pork, and drizzle with glaze.
Tips:
- To ensure the tenderloin cooks evenly, use a meat thermometer to check its internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
- For the best flavor, marinate the tenderloin for at least 30 minutes before grilling.
- If you don't have a grill, you can also cook the tenderloin in a grill pan over medium-high heat.
- To make the spicy pomegranate sauce, use fresh pomegranate seeds for the best flavor. You can also substitute dried pomegranate seeds if fresh ones are not available.
- Serve the grilled tenderloin with the spicy pomegranate sauce and your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad.
Conclusion:
Grilled tenderloin with spicy pomegranate sauce is a delicious and elegant dish that is perfect for a special occasion. The tenderloin is juicy and flavorful, and the spicy pomegranate sauce adds a touch of heat and sweetness. This dish is sure to impress your guests!
