Chipotle Orange Pork Tenderloin because the tart sweet orange in this sauce just jumps out at you followed with a smoky kiss from the chipotles and smoked garlic. We did an overnight marinade in our Chipotle Orange Sauce for a delicious, simple and easy cook with this tender pork! A great dish with a “Kiss of Smoke” for tailgating and having friends over for dinner.

Patti and I have set one night a week just for us. It’s our date night. We usually put something special on our Green Mountain Wood Pellet Grill/Smokerbut sometimes we cook inside. We always eat outside on our patio where it is very comfortable with a rainforest theme.  Wood Pellet Patio Heater, little lights, candles, lanterns and surround sound. We enjoy a little wine, or strawberry margaritas using frozen strawberries for ice, good food, music and sometimes a dance or two…

Cooking Directions: Chipotle Orange Pork Tenderloin 

Place your tenderloin(s) into a zip lock bag with enough Chipotle Orange Sauce to cover and then into the refrigerator overnight to marinate.

Preheat your Grill Grates and light your Wedgie for that “Kiss of Smoke”.

Place your tenderloins directly onto the hot Grill Grates for about 8 minutes, then give them a roll over for 8 more minutes.

Now flip them end to end and repeat for those nice crossbars. You want to use time only as a rule of thumb as every grill and piece of meat will be different. Instead go by the internal temperature.

U.S.D.A. safe for pork is 145* (62c), do you want to remove these from the grill around 140* (60c). Keep in mind that the meat will continue cooking for another 5 to 10 degrees after you pull it off the grill. I use a Maverick ProTemp Instant Read Thermometer for checking meat temps.

Note: I get a lot of questions about the kind of pellets you can use with a recipe. Keep in mind that a recipe is just an outline. Some you need to follow closely like when you are making bread, but most you can do anything you can dream, our favorite way to cook. Feel free to mix and match the pellets until you find a combination you really like. Also, you are only smoking at temps less than 250 degrees (122c), anything higher is cooking and there will not be much if any smoke so it does not matter what kind of pellet you are using.

About our Recipes

We do our recipes on our patio where we have a lineup of grills, including Green Mountain, Uuni Wood Fired Pizza Oven, Sawtooth, Louisiana, Royall, Memphis, Traeger pellet grills, Char Griller side box smoker, Saber, Charmglow, Char-Broil, The Big Easy, Lodge Sportsman’s, Brinkman and Weber. I call it our “Wall of Grill”. Our grilling styles are healthy and low fat and will fit pelletheads, gas, natural wood and even charcoal purists. Almost any of our recipes can be done on any kind of good BBQ.

The important thing to keep in mind is TIME & TEMPERATURE. You can do our recipes on any grill, even some of them in the oven or crock pot, but, then you lose all the flavors you get from cooking outdoors. But sometimes it does rain.

Remember that a recipe is simply an outline; it is not written in stone. Don’t be afraid to make changes to suit your taste. Take it and run with it….

Live your Passion and Do What You Love,
Ken & Patti
