We had the best tenderloin EVER!!! I found a recipe on the internet. OMG! it was soooo tender and good. Recipe is as follows:

Jamaican Jerk Pork Loin

5-6 thick slices of pork tnederloin
1 can pineapple junks, in its own juice
1 lime
lime zest
Jamaincan Jerk Seasoning
1 tbsp honey
fresh lettuce mix ( I used spring mix)
cantaloupe
purple onion

Preheat oven to 400 degrees, rub both sides of pork with jerk seasoning. Drain pineapple, reserving juice.  Zest lime into reserved pineapple juice, juice lime into pineapple juice. Place pork into a baking dish, pour half of pineapple juice mixture over pork. Turn oven back to 350 degrees adn bake until tender. While tenderloin is baking, add 1 tbsp honey and 1 tsp jerk seasoning to remaining pineapple juice. Place mixed greens into large bowl, thinly slice onion and place over lettuce, place pineapple junks over top of onions, add cantaloupe pieces over pineapple. Pour juice mixture over lettuce and fruit, toss well and place in frig. until pork is done. Serve salad with pork loin. YUM!!!!!

I placed my salad and dressing into a plastic bowl with a lid. About every 5 minutes, I would shake the bowl to cover all veggies and fruit with the dressing. The recipe sounds a little odd, but it is really really good. The honey and lime are a nice compliment to the fruit.
