I smoked then seared a pork tenderloin today, after letting it sit in Patron tequila, lime, olive oil, garlic, hot pepper, s&p and agave nectar.

Pork was smoked at 250 degrees F until it was at 120 internal, then seared. My wife likes it medium, so I took it to about 145 then rested.

Along with that, I grilled some Swiss chard and, thanks to DivaQBBA, some melon skewers that got balsamic glaze added to them. Served with a campesina (muddle lime and sugar, ice, tequila).

Makin me hungry right before bed!!

Very nice looking, and I'll bet even better tasting plate Curt!
 
Dude! You use Patron for a marinade? I need a better job :-D

Pork looks great! Done just right.

I've never heard of a campesina but I love Caipirinhas. Basically the same thing but use Cachaca (Brazilian loquor made from sugar cane. Similar to tequila) so I am sure I would like your concoction!
 
Ron, I got the patron for doing the recipe. :)

And I came by the campesina because of all the caipirinhas I've been making this summer with Leblon cachaca.
 
Man, that is some good looking food, nice touch with the cocktail matching. You are fancy.

BTW, that food pron is very RTD-ish
 
The cocktail was because Patron commissioned the recipe.
