Caribbean Jerk Pork Tenderloin

Good aftenoon folks! Last night I grilled some very tasty pork tenderloins...
They were marinated in a Caribbean jerk juice that was simply spectacular!
Now, marinades for the most part are decently good... <span class="ev_code_GREY">does that make sense...?</span>
What I mean is: I can tak'em or leav'em... Great, not really... boring, never.
[DISCLAIMER: i do not count Wicker's into this thought process.]
Anyway, this is what I got.

Two heafties soaked in this stuff since Saturday morning. Bought the whole sheebang at Sendik's.
Got the 26"OTG set-up indirect high heat and tossed the loins over the coals, turning them every two minutes.

a few baby Yukons kept'em company.

I turned all sides about those two mintues or so then went indirect to the center in WEBER WORLD

I'm lookin' for a 140 to 145ºF internal temp in the thickest part of the pig...

...and i found it only a few minutes later while they were resting on centercourt.
They were removed, foil-tented to rest about ten to fifteen minutes while we finished the sides.

Brussel sprouts were oven roasted/toasted in local farmer hand-churned butter then sprinkled with seasoned bread crumbs

A fresh cold GK was poured along side dinner.

The pork was supertender, flavourful an' downright good eetin'!

Another terrific looking dinner plate, Jim!! Tenderloins look great and I love roasted BS's. I know exactly what you mean about marinades. In fact I had some pork chops tonight that were marinated that turned out just so-so.
 
Once again, you managed to make me hungry after I have already eaten.

Great looking loins, sprouts and spuds, Jim!
 
nice jerk!

you forgot my favorite move, the foil packet of fruit wood and allspice berries. It's way cheaper than ordering pimento wood and tastes just as good.

I also got a nice jerk glaze recipe around here that I could dig up if you're interested

Top notch tenderloins and sides Jim!
Great grilling and plated shots too!

I'd really like to try Jerk pork, but afraid my better half would have a negative opinion of the seasonings.
But, there's always guys night on the Weber!

Like Bob said - this looks great!

The budget committee is tough to please, as are our girls. Nothing too spicy or over the top (in their opinion) flavor-wise, so I am limited on what I can cook for them.

maybe I need to invite the guys over for Weber night every so often. That way, I can try great recipes like this one.
 
thanks for all the nice comments
