COLD APRICOT-CHIPOTLE GLAZED TENDERLOIN

My husband loves the sweet-hot flavor of this pork, especially when
it has been grilled.

INGREDIENTS:

--1 cup apricot jam
--2 chipotles en adobo
--2 garlic cloves
--3 tablespoons tequila
--2 tablespoons mild olive oil
--2 pork tenderloins (about 1 pound each)
--2 cups fruit-wood smoking chips, soaked in water for 30 minutes

INSTRUCTIONS: Combine the jam, chipotles, garlic, tequila and olive
oil in a food processor. Process until smooth.

Put the tenderloins in a shallow glass dish and add three quarters of
the apricot-chipotle sauce. Set the remaining sauce aside. Turn the
meat in the sauce until well coated. Set aside to marinate for at
least 30 minutes. Light a charcoal fire or heat a gas grill to
medium. Scatter the soaked wood chips over the white ash-covered
coals, or put them in a foil pan, which you have poked holes into,
then place over the heat source.

Put the tenderloins on the hot grill and close the lid. Grill for
about 20 minutes, turning frequently. Watch carefully; they burn
easily.

I like to place the remaining glaze in a saucepan on the grill so it,
too, can smoke. To serve, cut the tenderloins across the grain into
thin slices. Accompany with the heated sauce. Serves 4.
