    eggor,
    This is a Bobby Flay recipe I cooked the other night and it was incredible. I thought the sauce would be too hot for my daughters but they absolutely love it.
    Good luck!![p]2 pork tenderloins (about 1 1/2 pounds each)
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    Salt and freshly ground pepper
    Guava Glaze, recipe follows
    Orange-Habanero Mojo, recipe follows[p]Preheat a grill to high.
    Brush pork with oil, and then season it with salt and pepper. Set aside a few tablespoons of the Guava Glaze for brushing the cooked pork. Grill for 4 to 5 minutes per side, brushing frequently with the Guava Glaze. Remove from the grill, brush again with glaze and let rest for 10 minutes. Slice into 1/2-inch thick slices, drizzle with the Orange-Habanero Mojo, and serve immediately.[p]
    Guava Glaze:
    1 cup guava jelly, or apricot jam
    1/4 cup Dijon mustard
    1/4 cup freshly squeezed orange juice
    Salt and freshly ground pepper[p]Whisk jelly, mustard, and orange juice together in a small bowl. Season, to taste, with salt and pepper.[p]Orange-Habanero Mojo:
    2 tablespoons canola oil
    1 small red onion, finely chopped
    4 cloves garlic, finely chopped
    1/2 cup fresh lime juice
    3 cups freshly squeezed orange juice
    1/2 habanero chile, seeded and finely chopped
    2 tablespoons chopped fresh cilantro leaves
    1 teaspoon cumin seeds
    Salt and freshly ground pepper[p]Heat oil in a small saucepan over medium-high heat. Add onion and garlic and cook, stirring, until soft, about 5 minutes. Add lime juice, orange juice, and habanero chile and bring to a boil. Cook until reduced by half. Whisk in the cilantro and cumin and season, to taste, with salt and pepper. Drizzle over pork.

    dawgtired,[p]thanks, i saved the recipe, but i'm looking for a roast recipe. this hunk looks more like something that should be a lo and slow, but I don't have that kind of time. Thanks for the recipe on the tenderloin, it looks good, I may just try it on the roast.

    eggor,
    When I get short notice, I get those Hormel Honey/Mustard pork loins. Man, they really are tasty. Cook indirect per their temps, about 45 minutes, I think.[p]Mike

    eggor,
    I cooked these loins @ 350 for about 35-40 minutes. I pulled them from the heat when they hit 145 internally. They were about 1.5 lbs a piece. Forgive my ignorance, I thought a pork loin was a pork loin roast.

    dawgtired,[p]the recipe calls for tenderloin, but i think the loin roast will cook very similar. For now i'm plannin on spiral slicing the roast and adapting your recipe.[p]until a couple years ago i only thought that a pig was good for bacon and ham. how things have changed in a short period of time...
