Blackberry Pork tenderloin

Hey everyone thought I would talk a little about Pork tenderloin today. This is a very nice cut of meat. When your looking for it, I like the unflavored. It comes in many different pre-marinades these days.  If nothing else teriyaki one will work for this too.   Tenderloin is very easy to cook, but I find a lot of people tend to overcook it and it gets tough.
   Grilled is my favorite way to have tenderloin.  Start by removing your tenderloin from the package, and wash it under cool water. Pat dry and slice it down the middle  like a hot dog bun.  A little bit of salt and pepper and grill it like you would a steak.  Cook to 145 degrees, or medium to medium well.

While the Tenderloin is on the grill, prepare the blackberry glaze  -

In a cup mix
1/4 cup Blackberry jelly
1 Tabl of balsamic Vin.
A pinch of salt
1 Tabl of Vodka (optional)

Brush this lovely mixture on your still hot tenderloin and place back on the grill to give the sugar a little time to work its magic and glaze the pork.

What you should end up with is a lovely bit of pork to eat as a steak or sliced on a bun. Either way your guests will enjoy every last bite.
