This recipe for pork tenderloin, derives from an old Venison recipe used
by Thomas Jefferson at Monticello. It marinates for 2 days, so think
ahead! The herbal flavor of the juniper berries is perky - but a bottle
of juniper berries will last a lifetime! ..
6 juniper berries, crushed
1/2 cup brandy
1 cup olive oil
1/2 cup fresh lemon juice
1/2 cup sugar
2 Tablespoons pepper
1 Tablespoon minced garlic
2 bay leaves
3 tenderloins of pork
Combine all ingredients except pork to make marinade. The marinade can
be saved and reused; it improves with keeping. Marinate pork for two
days before serving.
NOTE: Marinade MUST be boiled for a few minutes if it is to be reused
Broil on charbroiler or under strong broiler until 50 percent blackened.
(The stripes of a charbroiler are preferable, but for appearance only.)
Bake further 10 minutes at 400 degrees, or microwave for 3 minutes.
Slice on diagonal, about 1/2-inch thick. Garnish and serve with apple
rings, apple sauce, baked apples, etc.
Serves: 6 This recipe can be doubled, tripled etc. depending on serving
needs.
