Tenderloin
One day when I was shopping at Sam's they had a lady serving pork tenderloin marinaded in Weber's Mesquite Marinade Mix. It was soooo good. I made it for the family that weekend, they loved it. Wendell can't decide if he likes it better than steak cooked on the grill, that's saying something.
Ingredients:
2 lbs pork tenderloin (usually 2)
1 package of (Weber) Mesquite Marinade Mix
1/4 cup water
1/4 cup olive oil or corn oil
trim excess fat and silver skin off tenderloins,cut tenderloin into 3 pieces, mix marinade, pour in a resealable bag, add meat, squish meat around making sure all the meat is coated with marinade. Squeeze all air out of bad and place bag in a bowl, making sure it doesn't leak. Let marinate in refrigerator for at least 30 minutes or overnight.
I decided to cut the tenderloin into 1" medallions, it was too much surface area to cover and the meat didn't have as much flavor, cutting each into thirds seems to work the best.
Cook on a medium hot grill, just until the meat doesn't feel squishy, when you squeeze it with tonges.
It should be medium well at this point. Put on platter and cover for at least 5-10 minutes before cutting.
We like it sliced thin.

If you have over 2 pounds add more marinade, I had 2 1/2 lbs. today I didn't have anymore mix, so I added:
2 Tbs. Dales Seasoning
1/2 tsp onion powder
1/2 tsp garlic powder
It was wonderful.
