Ingredients

Scale

1 pork tenderloin, 14oz, 400gr
2 tsp olive oil
1 1/2 tsp paprika
1 clove garlic, minced or crushed
1/3 cup (1.5oz (45gr) mushrooms, trimmed, chopped
1 1/2 tbs bread crumbs
1 tbs ketchup
1 tsp Worcestershire sauce
1 tbs snipped fresh rosemary
1 tbs snipped fresh chives
Barbecue Sauce:
1/4 cup (2oz, 60ml) ketchup
1/2 cup (4oz, 120ml) tomato sauce
2 tbs cider vinegar
2 tbs molasses
1 tbs Worcestershire sauce
2 tsp dry mustard
2 tsp dried oregano
1 tsp garlic powder

Instructions

Heat olive oil in small skillet over medium heat.
Add paprika and sauté for 1 minute.
Add mushrooms and garlic and sauté for 3 – 4 minutes, until starting to brown and soften.
Meanwhile, butterfly pork tenderloin – cut it in half lengthwise leaving 1/4 inch intact – so that you can open it like a book.
Open it and pound lightly with a meat mallet so that it lies flattish… or use the edge of a plate. You just want it to be flat and easy to work with.
When mushrooms are done put into a small bowl and add bread crumbs, herbs, Worcestershire and ketchup.
Mix well and spread on one side of pork about 1/8 inch from the edge.
Fold other side over and tie with kitchen string.
Cook pork on barbecue grill for 30 minutes or until done, basting during the last 10 minutes with Barbecue Sauce.
When done, slice and serve with more Barbecue Sauce on the side.
Barbecue Sauce:
Mix all ingredients in small sauce pan and bring to a boil over medium heat stirring frequently.
Simmer 10 – 15 minutes, remove from heat and use when needed.
Sauce will keep for a week in the refrigerator.

Notes

Substitute 1 tsp dried for each of the fresh herbs.
Nutrition info assumes all of the barbecue sauce.
To tie the pork: Cut five 6 inch lengths of string. Wrap around pork and tie every 2 inches – making certain that you do one as close to each end as possible.
Substitute purchased Barbecue Sauce if you prefer.
