Wow, this grilled pork tenderloin with apples and stuffing turned out great. Although the original recipe called for baking bone-in pork chops, I knew that grilling a marinated pork tenderloin would result in a more tender, juicy dish. We’re big fans of pork tenderloin in this house. When they go on sale, I go to the store and grab a few packs (there are two in a package). Marinating them not only adds great flavor it helps keep the meat tender and moist. There’s no reason to buy a great tenderloin only to dry it out on a grill.
The Perfect Pork Topping
The topping on this grilled pork tenderloin with apples and stuffing is beyond great. It reminds you of eating apple pie and turkey stuffing at the same time. Almost like it was Thanksgiving. The slight sweetness of the apple pie really goes really well with the apple-flavored pork. Don’t worry, it’s not overly sweet at all. And any sweetness is offset by the wonderful pork.
