Chipotle Lime Pork Tenderloin A La Alton Brown Recipes

CHIPOTLE LIME PORK TENDERLOIN A LA ALTON BROWN

Steps:

• Trim the pork tenderloin and remove the silverskin.
• Combine spices with lime juice and honey. Mix well. The Tupperware mixer works well here.
• Add half the mixture to a 1 gallon Ziploc, add the tenderloin, remove as much air as possible. Seal and refrigerate for 1 to 3 hours. But up to 24 hours is fine.
• Remove the tenderloin from the refrigerator and allow to rest at room temp for 30 minutes. Clean and oil grates. Preheat grill to a surface temperature of about 450°. That is medium on my grill which is hot. Most grills will be medium-high.
• Place over direct heat. Cook with a closed lid. Rotate the tenderloin 1/3 every 5 minutes for about 20-25 minutes until an internal temperature of 140°. Please never cook by time alone. Use an instant-read thermometer, please.
• Make an aluminum foil "boat." Add reserved marinade to the foil boat and moved tenderloin to the boat. Seal the foil tightly and allow to rest at room temperature for 10 minutes. FYI, I checked the temp at this point, and it was 151°.

GRILLED CHIPOTLE TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• Whisk cilantro, chiles, garlic, honey, lime juice, soy sauce, and cumin together in a bowl and pour into a resealable plastic bag. Add pork tenderloins, coat with the marinade, squeeze out excess air, and seal the bag. Marinate in the refrigerator for 6 hours.
• Remove tenderloins from the marinade and shake off excess. Discard the remaining marinade and bring pork to room temperature, 20 to 30 minutes.
• Meanwhile, preheat an outdoor grill for high heat and lightly oil the grate.
• Grill tenderloins on the preheated grill until slightly pink in the center, about 10 minutes per side. An instant-read thermometer inserted into the center should read at least 145 degrees F (63 degrees C).

PORK TENDERLOIN WITH CHIPOTLE-MAPLE MOP

Steps:

• Position a rack closest to the broiler and preheat to high. Combine the coriander, garlic powder, and ginger. Brush the tenderloins with the oil and rub all over with spices. Season with salt and pepper, to taste. Lay the pork on a small shallow pan and broil until golden, turning once, about 5 minutes per side. (An instant-read thermometer should register 130 degrees F when inserted into the thickest part of the meat.)
• Meanwhile, for the sauce: Whisk the syrup, vinegar, hot sauce, and salt together in a small bowl. Set about half the sauce aside. Generously brush the tenderloins all over with the remaining sauce. Return to the broiler and cook, turning once, until a deep rich brown, about 2 to 3 minutes. Set meat aside for 5 minutes to rest before slicing. Serve with reserved sauce for drizzling over the meat.
• 1. Lay the tenderloin on your work surface and slip a sharp knife under the surface of the silver skin. Keeping your knife flat against the meat, make your first cut by slicing away from you and toward the end of the tenderloin.
• 2. Lift the unattached portion of the silver skin up and place your knife at the point where the skin meets the tenderloin. Slice to separate.
• 3. Continue moving down the length of the tenderloin, pulling and slicing until the silver skin is completely removed.

• Remove the tenderloin from the bag and allow to sit at room temperature while preparing the grill. Remove the reserved marinade from the refrigerator.
• Fill a large chimney starter with natural lump charcoal and light. Once the charcoal is ashy and white, approximately 30 minutes, dump the hot charcoal onto the lowest grate of the grill and spread into an even layer using extra-long tongs. Place the cooking grate back on the grill and cover with the lid; heat the grate to medium heat for 2 to 3 minutes.
• Brush the grill with vegetable oil. Remove the tenderloin from the bag and place in the center of grate. Discard bag with marinade. Cover and cook for 12 to 15 minutes, turning every 1 1/2 to 2 minutes, until the tenderloin reaches an internal temperature of 140 degrees F.
• Remove the tenderloin from the grill and place on a large piece of heavy-duty aluminum foil folded at the edges to create a basket, and pour on the reserved marinade. Wrap tightly and rest for 10 minutes. Remove to a cutting board and slice. Garnish with cilantro and serve.
