PORK TENDERLOIN WITH PRICKLY PEAR TEQUILA BBQ SAUCE

Steps:

• Preheat an outdoor grill to medium heat.
• Brush the pork tenderloins with oil. Season generously with salt and pepper.
• Use a clean cloth or rolled paper towels soaked with oil to season the grill. Grill the tenderloins, turning as necessary to mark them well on all sides. Use a basting brush to coat the tenderloins with sauce. Turn the tenderloins about every 2 minutes and reapply sauce to ensure even caramelization. Cook until an instant-read thermometer inserted in the center registers 145 degrees F (for medium doneness) to 160 degrees F (for well done).
