GRILLED PORK WITH AVOCADO SALSA
I love the zesty taste of this moist grilled tenderloin. The cumin, avocado and jalapeno give it southwestern flair. It's an easy, elegant way to prepare pork. —Josephine Devereaux Piro, Easton, Pennsylvania

Steps:
- Cut pork pieces crosswise into thirds. Cut off any big chunks of fat from pork and reserve; leave small pieces of fat attached to pork. Combine pork, reserved fat, 2 cups water, and next 4 ingredients in deep 12-inch skillet. Bring to boil. Reduce heat, cover, and simmer until pork is tender, stirring occasionally, about 1 hour 45 minutes, adding more water by 1/4 cupfuls if necessary to keep pork partially submerged.
- Uncover; boil pork mixture until liquid is reduced by half, about 10 minutes. Stir in brandy; boil until liquid evaporates and meat browns and begins to get crisp, stirring often, about 15 minutes. Cool meat slightly. Discard any loose pieces of fat. Tear meat into strips; return to skillet. (Can be made 1 day ahead. Cover and chill.)
- Add 2 tablespoons water to skillet. Cover and rewarm pork over medium-low heat, stirring, about 5 minutes. Season with more salt, if desired. Transfer to bowl. Serve with warm tortillas, Avocado Salsa, and tomato salsa.

Steps:
- Preheat a grill to medium high. Whisk together the chipotle powder, cumin, orange zest and 1/2 teaspoon salt. Toss with the salmon and set aside.
- Meanwhile, cut off the tops and bottoms of the oranges with a sharp knife. Place cut-side down, then cut off the peel and white pith. One at a time, hold each orange over a bowl and cut along the membranes to remove the segments, letting them fall into the bowl. Squeeze the juice from the membranes into the bowl. Chop the orange slices into small pieces, then return to the bowl. Add the avocado, red onion, cilantro, jalapeño, lime juice and a pinch of salt; toss well.
- Lightly oil the grill and add the corn. Grill, turning occasionally, until charred all over, 12 to 15 minutes. After a few minutes, add the salmon to the grill and cook until well marked and charred at the edges, about 2 to 4 minutes per side, depending on the thickness. Grill the tortillas until marked and warmed, 20 to 30 seconds per side.
- Cut the corn kernels off the cob and toss with the avocado-orange salsa. Divide the tortillas among plates and top with the salmon, salsa and more cilantro. Serve with the lime wedges.
