GRILLED ROSEMARY PORK TENDERLOIN WITH HORSERADISH SAUCE

Grilled Rosemary Pork Tenderloin with Horseradish Sauce image

Bernice Dean of Garland, Texas typically makes this dish in the oven, but our Test Kitchen took it to the grill with outstanding results. Toss additional rosemary sprigs on the grill coals to enhance the smoky rosemary flavor. A simple sauce of pineapple preserves and horseradish gives the pork a tasty treatment. The brand of horseradish you select will determine the "heat" level of the sauce.
