86: Apple and Gorgonzola Stuffed Pork Tenderloin


Will and I love having people over to hang out.  We decided to have a few people over for dinner and a fire.  When deciding what to make we ran across this recipe and decided to do a spin off on the green egg.  

Ingredients:
2 granny smith apples, diced
2 pork tenderloins (~4 pounds)
~3 tbsp bourbon
S&P
Olive Oil
~4 oz Gorgonzola cheese
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
1 tbsp butter

The How To:
Heat the butter in a medium sized sauce pan
Add the diced apples, bourbon, balsamic vinegar, and brown sugar
Let the apples cook for about 10 minutes, until they are soft 
Season with S&P (to taste)
Set the apples aside
Butterfly both the pork tenderloins
Fill the pork with the apple mixture, and gorgonzola cheese
Use twine to secure the pork (Using a long piece for wrapping the entire length of the tenderloin was the best method) 
Spray with olive oil
Season pork with S&P
Grill until the internal temperature is between 145-150

Enjoy! 

We served this with grilled veggies, quinoa and a salad (that O Beth brought).  Everything was delicious and everyone loved it.  This dish was Will (and all our friends) approved.
