pork tenderloin flavor galore

2 whole pork tenderloins (usually come in vacuum packs of two)
2 c soyaki or fave teriyaki sauce/marinade
large ziploc
cherry preserves/jelly or fave berry jelly (cherry hands down my fave)

place pork and marinade in the ziploc, release all the air and seal ziploc and refrigerate for 4 hours or overnight

heat a grill on high and strain the marinade in a pot
grill the pork on high to med high....it will caramelize nicely
grill until medium firm to touch or roughly 160 degrees (place in a dish and tent with foil-cooking will continue slightly)....REST meat for 10 mins

while meat is resting, heat marinade to a boil, simmer for 5 minutes uncovered.....be aware, it boils over easily....watch it

also heat 1/2 c fruit jelly in a small pan (I do not believe in microwaves....your choice)

to serve:  thickly slice (2-3 inches) pork, pour a bit of marinade and jelly over the meat.....kids love to dip pieces of meat in sauce piles ;-)

optional:  also fine to use thick pork chops

delicious accompaniments:  mashed potatoes

Bon Appetit!!!
