Cuban Pork Tenderloin
Cuban Pork Tenderloin is marinated in orange, lemon and limes juices, garlic and cilantro. So good! Cuban Pork Tenderloin We had Cuban Pork Tenderloin for our 4th of July barbecue. Since moving to Florida I have really learned to appreciate the bold flavors of a Cuban marinade with all of it citrus overtones. It packs a lot of flavor and also has loads of garlic and cilantro… you just can’t go wrong with this marinade. I am so loving grilling on my Kamado grill, I know I tell you this every time I post, I just can’t help it. It is the best way to grill in my opinion. I also got the best cookbook to review the other day that is brand new to the cookbook world, The Kamado Smoker and Grill Cookbook. It was written by Chris Grove. The day I got it I immediately sat down and read it from cover to cover. Love the book! This marinade goes together quickly and you can marinade the pork a hour or up to 4 hours. If I was using the marinade on a Boston Butt Roast I would do it overnight. Pork tenderloin just doesn’t need that long of marinating time. I used both the juice and zest and it is a zingy, fruity marinade. Next time I may add a level of heat with some Sriracha added to it.

Pesto Grilled Potatoes You are going to love how easy these potatoes are to make and you can make them earlier in the day and have ready to just put on the grill when you are ready to cook. You could even buy the already cooked potatoes from the dairy case at the store to save even more time if you are in a hurry. 5.0 from 1 reviews Cuban Pork Tenderloin Author: Mary Ellen Prep time: 4 hours Cook time: 35 mins Total time: 4 hours 35 mins Serves: 2 tenderloins 2 limes, juice and zest 1 lemon, juice and zest 1/2 cup orange juice 1/4 cup oil 6 - 8 garlic cloves, minced handful cilantro salt and pepper 1 tablespoon Trader Joe's Everyday Seasoning 2 limes, juice and zest 1 lemon, juice and zest 1/2 cup orange juice 1/4 cup oil 6 - 8 garlic cloves, minced handful cilantro salt and pepper 1 tablespoon Trader Joe's Everyday Seasoning Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a large bowl.
