Something for the grill...

Grilled Tuscan Tenderloin

----Marinade----
1/2 cup orange juice
3 Tbsp. balsamic vinegar
2 Tbsp. extra virgin olive oil
2 Tbsp. honey; or brown sugar
2 tsp. crushed garlic
2 tsp. dried rosemary
1 tsp. dried thyme; or sage
1 tsp. coarsely ground black pepper
1 tsp. salt
----Pork----
2 Pork tenderloins; 1 lb. each

Combine all of the marinade ingredients in a bowl
and stir to mix. Remove a 1/4 cup of the marinade
and refrigerate until ready to cook the tenderloins.

Place the tenderloins in a shallow non-metal container.
Pour the remaining marinade over the tenderloins and
lift the meat to allow the marinade to flow underneath.
Cover and refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours, turning occasionally.

Coat a grill rack with cooking spray and place the
tenderloins on the grill rack. Cook, covered, over
medium coals, turning occasionally, for about 20 minutes,
until a thermometer inserted in the thickest part of the
meat reads 155 to 160 degrees. Baste occasionally with the
reserved marinade during the last 5 minutes of cooking.

Remove the tenderloins from the grill, cover loosely
with foil, and let sit for 5 minutes before slicing
thinly at an angle and serving.

Jacquie,

How do you think this would work with Splenda, instead of honey or brown
sugar?

the honey and brown sugar 'glaze' the orange to the meat

Splenda can't do that

however, this recipe is for 2 pounds of meat..... at 4 oz a serving,
that's 8 servings of pork....... 1/8 of the brown sugar and honey isn't
going to make a huge difference to your bg level (and most of it will
burn off)........... the remaining glaze that is with held, well.......
i wouldn't put that on my chop, but the boys can have it

enjoy!
