Hellacious Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Serves 4

21⁄2 - 3 lb pork tenderloin
1 tbl salad oil
2 tbl Italian Seasoning or favorite herb rub
salt & Pepper to taste
Sauce:
1⁄2 cup “Original Sinner”
1⁄2 cup favorite brand of tomato sauce
1⁄2 bottle favorite beer-wicked cold

Procedure

  1. Clean the pork tenderloin of any excessive fat. Rub with the oil, then the seasonings. Let sit at least one hour, or chilled overnight.
  2. Stir together the “Original Sinner”, tomato sauce and the beer.
  3. Drink the remaining beer.
  4. Grill the pork tenderloin for about ten minutes and begin basting with the BBQ sauce. Keep slathering it on, leaving a little for dipping later.

Serves Many

12-15 lb ham
1 cup “Original Sinner”
1⁄2 cup pineapple or apple juice
1⁄2 cup water
1⁄2 cup Dijon mustard, optional

Procedure:

  1. Place the ham in a roasting pan and add enough water to cover the bottom.
  2. Bake in a 275°F for 30 minutes.
  3. Stir together the “Original Sinner”, pineapple or apple juice, water and the optional mustard.
  4. Brush 1⁄4 of this “glaze” on the ham, repeating every 15 minutes until it is all used.
  5. After an hour the ham will be nicely glazed and ready to eat. If you prefer a crust, turn your oven on 450° F for 5 - 10 minutes to get a nice golden crust.

The drippings make a wonderful dipping sauce or gravy for the ham.


Satay

Makes approximately 24 skewers

2 lb boneless, skinless chicken breasts (see note at bottom)
Marinade:
2 tbl “Original Sinner”
1⁄4 cup soy sauce
1⁄2 tsp curry powder
1 ea scallion, minced
24 8” bamboo skewers
Sauce:
1⁄2 cup “Original Sinner”
2 tbl soy sauce
1⁄2 cup peanut butter
1 tsp sesame oil, optional

Procedure:

  1. Trim any excessive fat from the chicken breast and cut lengthwise into thin strips, getting approximately 24 strips from the 2 lbs of meat.
  2. Mix together the marinade ingredients and marinate the chicken strips for at least one hour.
  3. While the chicken is marinating, soak the skewers in cold water. This will help prevent them from during cooking on the grill.
  4. Make the sauce by combining all of the ingredients. You may need to thin this sauce down with a little hot water if too thick. I prefer the sauce warm because it brings out the flavors better.
  5. Thread the chicken onto the skewers, one piece per skewer.
  6. Grill on a medium fire for 3 - 4 minutes per side.
  7. Garnish with slivers of green onion, chopped peanuts and lime wedges.

Note: The chicken used in this recipe can easily be substituted with equal amounts of pork tenderloin or beef sirloin. Make sure you cut the meat against the grain for the most tender results.

1 lb fresh Chinese noodles
1 tbl sesame oil

1⁄4 cup peanut butter
1 tbl sesame oil
1 tbl fish sauce, optional - found in Asian groceries
3 ea scallions, cut in thin slivers
1⁄4 cup roasted peanuts, chopped
2 tbl chopped cilantro

Procedure:

  1. Boil the noodles in salted water until tender. Drain and refresh under cold water until chilled. Drain again and toss with 1 tbl of sesame oil. Chill.
  2. Combine the “Original Sinner”, peanut butter, sesame oil and fish sauce if using. Thin with a little hot water if necessary, bringing the consistency to that of heavy cream.
  3. Remove the noodles from the refrigerator and toss with the sauce. Taste for salt and add additional soy sauce to taste.
  4. Arrange on a platter or individual plates and garnish with the remaining ingredients.

Note: This recipe is also delicious hot. As well, it can be expanded to make a meal by adding steamed vegetables, grilled chicken or shrimp or tofu. Simply make more of the sauce and set some aside for the additional ingredients.
