fantastic, beautiful, and super flavorful dish! i served this when my in-laws were in town. they were impressed! it was nice because i marinated the tenderloins the day before and made the salsa the day before too, so it was a total make-ahead dish! i loved how easy it was to throw together! thanks for this impressive keeper, v!

    My first jerk recipe ever! I was a little leery that Dugan and son would like this but I couldn't keep them out of the grill. The smell was intoxicating! We prepared this outstanding recipe on some baby back pork ribs. I can't wait to try it on my favorite... chicken thighs! Yum.

    I absolutely love the sweet salsa because I love pineapple and mango! I marinated the pork overnight and it came out so moist and flavorful. The list of ingredients may be long but most are everything I usually have on hand. This is really an excellent meal to show off to friends and family.
