Plan ahead these need to marinade for at least 12 hours but 24 hours is even better, I also throw in some chopped green onions, but that is optional, you will *love* this recipe! :)

MIKE DITKA'S TAILGATE PORK SANDWICH

Chef Tom Kenny of Mike Ditka's Restaurant in Chicago is the creator of this delicious marinade and Orange Aioli. I confess I've left the pork in the marinade for up to a couple of days and I think it tastes even better. And the Orange Aioli is to die for and in fact tastes good as a chicken sandwich dressing. All in all, it's a great sandwich and very easy! Prep time includes marinating the pork.

Yield 8 serving(s)

Number Of Ingredients 18

2 (1 lb) pork tenderloin
2 cups orange juice
1/2 cup soy sauce
1 tablespoon chopped garlic (I like a little more)
1/4 cup Dijon mustard
1/4 cup honey
1/2 teaspoon cayenne pepper
1 cup mayonnaise
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tablespoon Tabasco sauce
1/2 teaspoon sugar
1/2 teaspoon minced garlic
1/2 teaspoon prepared horseradish
2 tablespoons chopped green onions
8 kaiser rolls
2 tomatoes, sliced thinly
3 cups chopped lettuce
1 sweet onion, thinly sliced (they suggest Vidalia)

Steps:

  • In a plastic zipper bag, marinate pork tenderloins in Chef Tom's Marinade at least 8 hours, preferably overnight (and personally, I've done up to 48 hours with great results).
  • Remove pork from marinade and grill over medium heat for 15 to 20 minutes, or until internal temperature is 160 degrees F.
  • Toast kaiser rolls on the grill.
  • Slice cooked tenderloins for sandwiches.
  • Spread Orange Aioli on insides of rolls, layer pork onto the rolls, then the tomato, lettuce and onion.
  • Dig in!
