Follow The Directions

01

Step

Prepare the Peach Salsa: In a medium bowl, gently combine the diced peaches, chopped red bell pepper, red onion, cilantro, lime juice, minced garlic, salt, and black pepper. Mix well and set aside. The flavors will meld beautifully as it sits. (Prep time: 10 minutes)

02

Step

Create the Caribbean Spice Rub: In a separate small bowl, whisk together the olive oil, brown sugar, Caribbean jerk seasoning, dried thyme, dried rosemary, and seasoned salt until a paste forms. (Prep time: 5 minutes)

03

Step

Marinate the Pork: Generously rub the Caribbean spice mixture all over the pork tenderloin, ensuring every inch is coated. (Prep time: 2 minutes)

04

Step

Grill the Pork: Preheat your outdoor grill to medium heat (about 350-400°F or 175-200°C) and lightly oil the grill grate to prevent sticking. Place the spice-rubbed tenderloin on the hot grill, close the lid, and cook for 9 to 11 minutes. Turn the tenderloin and continue grilling, covered, for another 9 to 11 minutes, or until the internal temperature reaches 145°F (63°C) for medium doneness. Use an instant-read thermometer inserted into the thickest part of the tenderloin to check for doneness. (Cook time: 18-22 minutes)

05

Step

Rest and Slice: Remove the grilled pork tenderloin from the grill, tent loosely with foil, and let it rest for 5 minutes before slicing. This allows the juices to redistribute, resulting in a more tender and flavorful final product. (Rest time: 5 minutes)

06

Step

Serve: Slice the rested pork tenderloin thinly against the grain and arrange on a platter. Generously top with the fresh peach salsa and serve immediately. Enjoy this taste of the Caribbean!

For an extra layer of flavor, marinate the pork tenderloin in the spice rub for at least 30 minutes, or up to 2 hours, in the refrigerator before grilling.
If you don't have fresh peaches, you can use frozen peaches (thawed) or canned peaches (drained). Adjust the amount of lime juice accordingly, as canned peaches can be sweeter.
Adjust the amount of Caribbean jerk seasoning to your liking, depending on your preferred level of spiciness.
Serve with coconut rice and grilled vegetables for a complete Caribbean-inspired meal.

    The pork was so tender and juicy, thanks to the resting period. Will definitely make this again.
