Does your family like doing home projects together?

Happy Monday, I hope you had a wonderful weekend and if you are a Mom you got to spend some time with your babies.  Because no matter how big they get they are always your babies.  My boys are both over 6′ tall, but I still feel like it is my job to protect them and make sure they are safe.  They think it is quite funny when I become all mama bear on them, but I can tell they like it.

We spent the weekend as a family building a gazebo out by the pool, and let me tell you it was a long…process.  Lots of opinions on how things should be done, my oldest and husband had the hardest time sharing the leadership role while me and Jacob just kept rolling our eyes at each other over their alpha behavior.

Blueberry Grilled Pork Tenderloin is the perfect way to enjoy time with family around the barbecue. 

After a long hard day enjoys having a nice cold drink and a delicious hearty meal.  What better way to spend a summer evening, then firing up the grill and throwing on a tenderloin?  I have to say this is the best pork tenderloin recipe I have come up to date.  The idea of the recipe was a bit of a fluke, I was thinking about using maple syrup in the marinade, because I love maple syrup on my bacon and well bacon is pork so why not.  Then I remembered about the gorgeous blueberry pancake recipe I had seen earlier in the day and this amazing recipe was born.

This recipe is dressy enough to be served at an elegant dinner party, yet casual enough for weeknight/weekend supper.  I promise you will want to make it over and over, it is just that good.

I hope you make this recipe, if you do, don’t be shy snap a photo and share it with me on Instagram, tag me @healthylifeforme.

Course Main Course
Prep Time 5 minutes
Cook Time 45 minutes
Total Time 50 minutes

Ingredients

Marinade:

  • 1/2 cup of fresh or frozen blueberries
  • 3 tbsp maple syrup
  • 3 tbsp extra virgin olive oil
  • 3 tbsp balsamic vinegar
  • 2 garlic cloves minced {about 1 generous tablespoon}
  • 1 1/2 tbsp dried thyme

Tenderloin:

  • 3 1/2 pound pork tenderloin tied with butchers twine if needed
  • 3/4 tsp freshly ground black pepper
  • 3/4 tsp sea salt

Instructions

  1. Add blueberries to a blender and process until pureed. Add maple syrup, olive oil, balsamic and blend until combined.
  2. Sprinkle pork tenderloin evenly on all sides with salt and pepper
  3. Pour the marinade into gallon size plastic freezer bag, add in garlic and thyme. Place the pork tenderloin in bag. Remove as much air from the bag and zip the top. Gently roll the bag on the kitchen counter to make sure that the marinade coats every inch of the tenderloin.

  5. When ready to cook, remove the bag of tenderloin from the fridge and preheat the grill to high heat.
  6. Remove the tenderloin from the bag and place on grill. Discard bag with marinade.
  7. Cook tenderloin for about 6 minutes, flip and cook an additional 6 minutes.
  8. Lower heat to medium and cook for 15 minutes, flip and cook an additional 15 minutes, or until tenderloin reaches an internal temperature of 140° F.
  9. Remove and let rest for about 10 minutes, remove twine if used and serve.

    Looks amazing! I’ve never grilled a pork tenderloin, but the recipe I usually make in the oven has a maple glaze. With blueberries I’m sure this is even more delicious! Can’t wait to try it.

      Thanks Becky. Grilling tenderloin is the best, this blueberry marinade puts a great crust on the outside to help keep the loin nice and moist. Hope you try out the recipe!

    Yum, this looks amazing! I’ve never grilled pork tenderloin before but it sure looks like I need to try it!

    My baby is only 8 months old but she’s already taking the leadership role in family projects – mostly by being destructive, haha! I should probably let my husband do more decisions when it comes to family projects but I have the hardest time letting go of always being right 😉

    Oh my gosh! This looks fantastic. I LOVE pork tenderloin. It is so tender and juicy. I have four boys, but my oldest is only 11 – so I have yet to see the power plays that are coming my way, but I can only imagine!

      Thanks Nicole! I remember my friend who has 5 children told me teenagers are exactly like the juvenile lions in the wild. Eventually they start nipping at the head lion to check for weakness. 🙂

    What an awesome looking pork tenderloin! I love that you made a marinade out of blueberries and maple syrup…yum! I’m not sure my marriage could last building a gazebo together but I sure I had one to sit under during those hot summer days 🙂

    Hi Amy,
    This was AMAZING! I did not have maple syrup and substituted honey–I will make it again with maple syrup.
    This will be my go to pork dish for any entertaining I do. Thank you!

    Terry–I was in your photography class at the Art Academy. I am a follower and so glad you are here.

      Thank you so much for letting me know Terry. I substitute honey and maple syrup for eachother quite often without it changing the flavor or texture of recipes. Do you ever see Trinadad? She is now running a raw food bar in Montgomery. Best! xo

    Mine is marinating in the fridge. Cannot wait to get on the grill. The kids were getting tired of chicken and beef, so I thought this recipe would be a great summer dinner with some veggies from our exploding garden!

    Really good! Grill over indirect heat. I used blueberry jelly, did not add sweetner, added a pinch of rosemary. Simmered excess marinade about 10 min, until thick, to make a yummy sauce!

    Tried this over the weekend. The pork was nice and juicy. However, next time, I will take the leftover marinade and boil it down into a sauce, just for more blueberry flavor. Served it with stuffed zucchini.
