Chili and Garlic Seasoned Grilled Pork Tenderloin
You will need:
A pork tenderloin, 1 – 2 lbs
3 cloves of garlic, minced
Kosher salt and pepper
A handful of dried chiles, preferably chile de arbol
Good quality olive oil, enough to cover the meat
Enough corn husks to completely wrap the tenderloin
A blazing hot grill, the hotter the better
Marinate the pork tenderloin with the olive oil, salt and pepper, garlic and chiles. When sufficiently marinated, wrap the tenderloin in the wet corn husks. Close with a few toothpicks. Grill the wrapped tenderloin on the grill for about 4 minutes on each side, allowing the corn husks to char a little. It should approximate the time needed to cook an ear of corn on the grill. After cooking, let the pork rest for about 6-10 minutes, allowing the meat to finish cooking and relax. Slice the meat in pieces about ” thick, and serve with corn on the cob and some baked beans or a nice green vegetable of your choice. An ice cold beer is a perfect companion. And maybe a slice of banana cream pie afterward. Followed by a short nap in front of the telly.
