Throw It On the Grill

Summer temps have hit NC.

I watched the trailer temp hit 85 before the AC turned on for hubby's homecoming.

With temps like that, we like to get the heat outside.

I had never done a pork roast on the grill before - 

it was so good ... and so easy.

Zesty Pork Tenderloin

¼ cup chopped fresh cilantro

¼ cup olive oil

2 Tbsp grated lime rind

2 cloves garlic, minced

1½ lb pork tenderloin

½ tsp salt, ½ tsp pepper

Combine cilantro, oil, lime rind, garlic and pork in a large zip-top plastic bag. 

Seal and refrigerate overnight. 

Preheat grill to medium high heat. 

Remove pork from bag; discard marinade. Sprinkle pork with salt and pepper.

Grill pork, covered with grill lid, 20 to 25 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 145°F. 

Let stand 3 minutes before slicing.

Note: Bake pork at 400°F for 20 to 25 minutes instead of grilling, if desired.
