PORK TENDERLOIN WITH TANGERINE SAUCE

Steps:

• If using a broiler instead of a stove-top grill, turn on broiler and cover broiler pan with double thickness of aluminum foil.
• Grate rind from tangerine, and squeeze tangerine to yield 1/2 cup juice; put into bowl large enough to hold the pork.
• Mince garlic; chop rosemary leaves; add to bowl with sugar, Worcestershire sauce and vermouth, and mix well.
• Wash, dry and slice tenderloin into 1/2-inch-thick slices, and stir into marinade.
• Prepare stove-top grill if using. Arrange slices of pork on grill or broiler. Brush with marinade. Grill or broil pork for a couple of minutes; brush with marinade, turn and continue cooking until pork is slightly pink in the center, about 5 minutes. Bring remaining marinade to boil, and spoon over pork slices on plates.

PERFECT PORK LOIN / TENDERLOIN

Steps:

• In a large zip lock bag, mix together all ingredients and add the pork loin. Let it marinade for at least 4 hours in the refrigerator (I leave mine in over night).
• Pre-heat the oven to 350 degrees.
• Cook 35 minutes per pound (or until as done as you prefer), in an uncovered baking dish.
• Remove from oven and let rest for 5-10 minutes. Slice and serve.
• For added flavor, you can reserve and boil the marinade until reduced by 25 percent, then use it to baste pork loin (every 20 minutes or so), or use it as a dipping sauce.
• Yum Yum Yum!

ROASTED PORK LOIN WITH SWEET TANGY SAUCE

Steps:

• In a bowl, combine sage, salt, pepper, and garlic.
• Rub roast with olive oil so rub will stick to the roast.
• Rub mix all over roast.
• Cover with plastic wrap tightly.
• Marinate for about 2 hours (if you don't have time for that it'll still be fine.
• Sprinkle the Worcestershire sauce on right before you put it in the oven.
• Place roast in either a roasting pan or glass dish on top of the onion.
• Pour 1/4 cup water in bottom.(don't pour it over the roast).
• Place in oven on middle rack.
• Cover for the first 2 hours then uncover for remaining time.
• Bake approximately 3 hours or until internal temperature is at least 150°F depending on your desired doneness.
• Meanwhile, place sugar, flour,vinegar, water and soy sauce in small saucepan. Heat, stirring occasionally until mixture begins to bubble and thicken slightly.
• Brush roast with glaze 3 or 4 times during last half hour of cooking.
• When roast is done (I use a meat thermometer to ensure that it's done). Take out of oven, pour remaining glaze on and let rest set about 10 minutes before carving.
