Steps:
- Marinate the pork overnight in the wine, balsamic vinegar, and garlic.
- Preheat the grill on high. When hot, brush the pork tenderloins with olive oil and sear each side for about a minute. Lower the heat to medium and cook, covered, for 8 to 10 minutes per side, brushing generously with the guava barbeque sauce at least twice.
- Remove the pork tenderloins from the heat, glaze with another thick coat of the barbeque sauce, and let rest on a plate for at least 5 minutes. Then slice the tenderloins into 1-inch medallions. The pork should be served warm with a side of papaya salsa.
- In a small saucepan, combine all the sauce ingredients. Simmer over low heat, stirring occasionally with a wooden spoon until the guava paste dissolves and the ingredients combine to form a thick, syrupy sauce, 15 to 20 minutes. Cool to room temperature. If not using immediately, refrigerate.
- Combine all the ingredients together in a medium bowl. Toss, cover, and refrigerate until ready to serve. Bring to room temperature before serving.

WEST INDIES GUAVA BARBECUE SAUCE
This sauce has a great island flavor -- not like jerk sauced foods but still slightly spicy. Use as you would your favorite barbecue sauce -- great on ribs, chicken, chops, more.
