			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>After spending a good portion of the day with Chris and Xander out in the Chicago heat, I let them know that Dad would be taking care of dinner tonight.  I remembered that we had a pork tenderloin roast in the freezer, so I got an idea.  Little did I know just how good it would turn out!</p><span id="more-246"></span>

<p><a href="http://www.braindonor.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/chililimepork.jpg" target="_blank"><img src="http://www.braindonor.net/wp-content/uploads/2009/08/chililimepork-300x225.jpg" alt="Chili Lime Pork" title="chililimepork" width="300" height="225" class="media-image-left" border="1" align="left" /></a>On the left, you can see the wild creation I decided to make.  Pork tenderloin strips beaten into fillets, marinated in Rose's Lime Juice, and finally grilled with a homemade sauce.  Total time was about 2 1/2 hours, most of witch was spent defrosting and marinating.  It turned out so well that I couldn't help taking a picture and share how I did it.</p>

<p>The first step was preparing the pork.  I started out with a small pork tenderloin roast, which is typically two smaller tenderloins tied together or in a mesh bag.  I have previously cut the pork length-wise before grilling, but did want the meal to take as long&#8212;it was well over 90 degrees outside.  I decided to cut it into quarters and then tenderize it into fillets.  I took each length, placed plastic wrap over the top, and beat the heck out of it.  The final product was closer in shape to a fish fillet.  With the new thickness, I knew that I could grill them in about 10 minutes and keep from being outside for too long.  I then placed the fillets into a dish to soak in Rose's Lime Juice and several tablespoons of kosher salt for about an hour.</p>

<p>The seasoning starts out with three small limes.  I zested and squeezed them into a small bowl, then added a touch of olive oil.  To that I added salt, pepper, paprika, garlic powder, chili powder, and cilantro flakes.  I kept things light with about a teaspoon of each.  If you try this and end up with a paste, add more lemon juice and olive oil.  You want the consistency of a thick vinaigrette.</p>

<p>With all of my preparation done, I fired up the grill.  Once my coals were hot enough, I placed all of the pork on the grill.  After about a minute, I flipped the pork and brushed on the seasoning.  I had things hot enough to have very clear sear lines and the start of browning after only a minute.  If you try this out on a gas grill, you will likely have to take a little more time.  I flipped and brushed the pork a total of three more times.  I continued to cook the pork until the surface was a nice golden-brown.  When I thought it was finished, I checked one of the thicker slices with a knife to ensure that it was cooked through&#8212;which I highly advise people to do no matter their experience.</p>

<p>I retreated out of the oppressive heat to enjoy my new creation with my family.  I took the picture shortly after coming in from outside, because I thought i had something special.  After tasting, my wife wholeheartedly agreed.  I can't wait to try this again!</p>
