Smoked Pork Tenderloin With Sesame Pepper Jelly image

Another recipe from my Oregon Jr. League cookbook. This sounds amazing. The recipe as written serves 8 to 10, either for a dinner party or enough for a leftovers dinner or two. It sounds like it can easily be reduced. Note: Jelly needs 2 hours to set, this time is reflected in prep time.

Number Of Ingredients 12

2 -3 pork tenderloin
2/3 cup olive oil
1/4 cup sesame seeds
2 teaspoons gingerroot, freshly grated
3/4 teaspoon pepper
1/2 teaspoon paprika
1 (1/4 ounce) packet unflavored gelatin
1/4 cup boiling water
1 cup brown sugar
3 medium red bell peppers, seeded and finely chopped
1/4 cup red wine vinegar
2 ounces toasted sesame seeds

Steps:

  • Preheat indoor grill or outside barbecue. Rub tenderloins with olive oil. Sprinkle with sesame seeds, ginger, pepper and paprika. Place a meat thermometer in middle, place on grill and cook, basting occasionally with jelly, until temperature reaches 180 degrees. Slice and serve with remaining jelly.
  • For Sesame Pepper Jelly: Soften gelatin in water until dissolved. Add brown sugar and bring to a boil, stirring constantly. Add peppers and vinegar and bring back to a boil. Turn off heat. Add sesame seeds and let mixture cool. Refrigerate for 2 hours, until mixture sets.
