    Apple and Raisin Stuffed Pork Tenderloin

    Finally branched out from my usual ribs, chicken, and steak diet to try smoking a pork tenderloin stuffed with apples and raisins soak in moonshine along with some onion and rubbed with Simon and Garfunkel. Overall was very pleased with the results since this was my first stuffed and smoked tenderloin, but I would not use moonshine again. It really did nothing to enhance or improve the flavor of the final product. I would have used whiskey or rum but I hate wasting good liquor on soaking things when I could drink it. Next time I try this recipe I might sacrifice a little to see if they change the flavor. After doing this I have the itch to do a Jalapeno Popper inspired stuffed tenderloin wrapped in bacon for Superbowl Sunday.

    Pulled at 140 degrees and placed over the coals for a few minutes to get some nice color around the outside.

    Very nice! Been a lot of recipes lately using apples lately which I like I think they are very under utilized in recipes.
    I use liquor and beer quite often in cooking. Soaking pineapple slices in Malibu coconut rum the dousing them in brown sugar and throw on the grill is one of my favorites.

      I was going to use use apricots instead of raisins but changed my mind when I saw the price this store was asking for them.

        Dried apricots are used in fried pies. I wonder if they would do as well reconstituted and used in your pork?

      Nice work, pork tenderloins really need the help flavor wise which makes rolling all manner of things into one a perfect complement. I just saw a recipe for basically the same thing only using a peach jam utilizing cooked down fresh peaches. Sweet anything goes well with pork. I usually do mine with aromatics and some form of meat so the fruit concept has peaked my curiosity.. Try a raspberry/chipotle glaze at your final sear next time, adds another dimension of flavor !!

      Thanks for the post and great work once again !!!
