    bbq pork is good and sweet potato fries are good with chipotle mayo, if u dont have chipotle seasoning you can use chili powder and garlic in the mayo and it is delish

    I frequently make those together, actually :) I just add the smallest amount of EVOO (Thanks Rachel Ray haha) to my sliced sweet potatoes and bake them :)

    As for the tenderloin, do you prefer sweet? hot? spicy? I cook tenderloin ALL the time, so Im like a walking talking encyclopedia of reasonings in my head :)

    I have a super fast and easy pork medallions with apples recipe that's amazingly good and only 20 minutes to cook... message me if you're interested. ;)
  • I like this one, from Kraft:

    It's delicious - my husband and I have had it several times.
  • My mother makes hers with diced apples and sauerkraut in the slow cooker. Splenda's brown sugar in makes it sweet, not sour, and it's soooo delicious.

    This is almost how I grill mine and I love it. I have made it in the oven before but I have come to realize that Pork was made to be cooked outside on the grill. It brings out all the flavor, and the fat just melts away. MMmmmmm it is so good. Now my mouth is watering and I can't stop thinking about it. You can also wrap the sweet potatoes in foil and bake them on the grill as well. Good luck and let us know what you end up doing with it.
