How To Prepare
1.
Place tenderloin in large resealable plastic bag set in a shallow dish. In a small bowl, combine balsamic vinegar, oil, rosemary, garlic, and pepper. Pour over tenderloin. Seal bag; turn to coat tenderloin. Marinate in the refrigerator for 1 hour.
2.
Remove tenderloin from marinade, discarding marinade. Prepare grill for indirect grilling. Test for medium heat above drip pan. Place tenderloin on grill rack over drip pan. Cover and grill about 40 minutes or until an instant-read thermometer inserted into the center of the tenderloin registers 155 degrees F.
3.
Brush tenderloin on all sides with Balsamic Glaze. Grill for 1 minute more. Remove from grill. Cover with foil and let stand for 15 minutes (the meat’s temperature will rise 5 degrees F during standing time). Slice to serve. Makes 6 (2 ounces cooked meat) servings.
Balsamic Glaze:
1.
In a small saucepan, bring balsamic vinegar to boiling. Reduce heat; boil gently for 5 minutes. Makes about 1/4 cup.

How To Prepare
For sauce, in a small bowl combine ketchup, teriyaki, Maple Syrup, and five-spice powder. For kabobs, trim tenderloin, slice thinly, and thread slices onto skewers. Brush skewered meat with some of the sauce.
2.
Grill kabobs on the rack of an uncovered grill directly over medium-hot coals for 3 to 4 minutes. Brush with remaining sauce. Turn kabobs; grill 3 to 4 minutes more or until fully cooked. To serve, sprinkle with cilantro. If desired, serve lime wedges alongside.
Tip
*Tip: If time permits, soak bamboo skewers in water before using. This helps to prevent the skewers from burning.

How To Prepare
Directions:
Combine crushed garlic, lemon juice, mustard, olive oil, and pepper; mix well.
Cut a lengthwise slit down the center of the tenderloin to within 1/2- inch of bottom (careful not to cut all the way through). Open tenderloin so it lies flat. On each half, make another, lengthwise slit down the center to within 1/2-inch of bottom; cover with plastic wrap. Flatten to 1/4-in. thickness with a mallet.
Remove plastic wrap; spread 1/2 of the garlic/Dijon mixture on the inside of the pork. Layer the spinach on top, press down gently.
Roll up pork jelly-roll style, starting with a long side. Tie the roast at 1-1/2-inch to 2-inch intervals with kitchen string.
Season lightly with the remaining garlic/Dijon mixture. Place on a rack in a shallow baking pan.
Bake, uncovered, at 425° for 25-30 minutes or until a meat thermometer reads 160°. Place under the broiler to brown the top for 5 minutes, then transfer to a serving platter or cutting board. Let stand 10 minutes before removing string and slicing. Slice in 8 pieces.
