We had this tonight and it was quit good. A little different. The sauce is really rich and creamy and I loved it, but it doesn't go well on mashed potatoes. Modified from a recipe from cooking light.

BOURBON MOLASSES-GLAZED GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN



Bourbon Molasses-Glazed Grilled Pork Tenderloin image

I love to cook tenderloins, they are all meat and so tender and good. Marinating them in Bourbon, Molasses and Coffee just makes them better.

Provided by Marsha Gardner

Categories     Pork

Number Of Ingredients 8

2 - 1 lb pork tenderloins
1/4 c strong black coffee, cold or room temperature
1/4 c bourbon
3 Tbsp dark molasses
2 Tbsp balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp olive oil, extra virgin
2 Tbsp fresh thyme, chopped
kosher salt and freshly ground black pepper to taste

Steps:

  • 1. Rinse the tenderloins, pat them dry, and trim off the silver skin and any excess fat. Place them in a shallow container or large resealable bag. Set aside.
  • 2. In a small bowl, whisk together the coffee, bourbon, molasses, vinegar, olive oil, and thyme. Pour the marinade over the pork, and turn to coat on all sides. Cover, and chill in the refrigerator for at least 2 hours or overnight. (Turn the pork a few times to evenly distribute the marinade.)
  • 3. When you're ready to cook the pork, prepare a hot fire in a charcoal or gas grill, and let the coals turn to gray ash with a slight red glow. Keep the coals on one side of the grill to create areas of direct and indirect heat. (If using a gas grill, heat just one side on medium.)
  • 4. Remove the pork from the marinade, reserving the marinade, and season with salt and pepper. Boil marinade for 5 minutes before using to baste pork tenderloin. Place the pork on the hot grill directly over the coals, and cook for about 12 to 15 minutes, basting with the reserved marinade and turning three or four times to avoid charring. Move the pork away from the coals, close the grill or cover the pork with foil, and cook for another 3 to 5 minutes, until an internal thermometer inserted in the tenderloin reads 145-degrees for medium or 160-degrees for medium-well.
  • 5. Remove the pork from the grill, and transfer to a cutting board. Cover loosely with foil, and let it rest for 5 to 10 minutes. Slice the pork into small medallions (1/4 to 1/2 inch thick), sprinkle with a little salt (if you like) and serve warm.

Categories     Pork

Time 36m

Yield 4 serving(s)

2 teaspoons coarse salt
2 teaspoons dark brown sugar

4 tablespoons dark brown sugar
2 tablespoons dijon-style mustard
1/2 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/4 teaspoon ground cloves
salt & freshly ground black pepper
1 1/2 lbs pork tenderloin

Steps:

  • Trim any excess fat or sinews off the tenderloin and arrange the meat in a baking dish.
  • To make the rub, place the rub ingredients in a small bowl and mix well with your fingers.
  • Sprinkle this mixture over the pork on all sides, and rub it into the meat.
  • Marinate the meat in the refrigerator for 2 hours.
  • To make the glaze, melt the butter in a saucepan over medium heat.

Tips:

  • To ensure the pork tenderloin is cooked evenly, use a meat thermometer to check the internal temperature. It should reach 145°F (63°C) for medium-rare or 160°F (71°C) for medium.
  • If you don't have a meat thermometer, you can check the doneness of the pork tenderloin by cutting into the center. The meat should be slightly pink in the middle for medium-rare or cooked through with no pink for medium.
  • Let the pork tenderloin rest for 10-15 minutes before slicing. This will allow the juices to redistribute throughout the meat, resulting in a more tender and flavorful dish.
  • For a more flavorful marinade, try adding herbs and spices such as garlic, rosemary, thyme, or paprika. You can also use different types of honey, such as wildflower honey or orange blossom honey, to create different flavor profiles.
  • If you don't have a grill, you can cook the pork tenderloin in a skillet over medium heat. Just be sure to sear the meat on all sides until it's browned before reducing the heat to low and cooking until done.

Conclusion:

Honey bourbon grilled pork tenderloin is a delicious and easy-to-make dish that's perfect for any occasion. The marinade infuses the pork with flavor, while the grilling process creates a slightly charred exterior and tender, juicy interior. Serve with your favorite sides, such as roasted vegetables, mashed potatoes, or a salad, for a complete meal.
