    Prep/Total Time: 30 min.

    Here in Michigan, the outdoor grilling season is pretty short, so I often use my oven for "grilling." The barbecue sauce is equally good on chicken or shrimp.�Diane Nemitz, Ludington, Michigan

    Ingredients:
    � 1 jar (16 ounces) chunky salsa
    � 1 can (8 ounces) unsweetened crushed pineapple
    � 1/2 cup port wine or grape juice
    � 1/4 cup packed brown sugar
    � 1/4 cup lime juice
    � 1/4 cup thawed orange juice concentrate
    � 2 tablespoons Worcestershire sauce
    � 1 teaspoon garlic powder
    � 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper

    � PORK:
    � 1 teaspoon ground cumin
    � 1/2 teaspoon pepper
    � 1/4 teaspoon cayenne pepper
    � 2 pork tenderloins (1 pound each)
    � Lime wedges

    Directions:
    1. In a large saucepan, combine the first nine ingredients. Bring to a boil; cook 20-25 minutes or until mixture is reduced by half, stirring occasionally.

    2. Meanwhile, for pork, mix spices; rub over tenderloins. Moisten a paper towel with cooking oil; using long-handled tongs, rub on grill rack to coat lightly. Grill tenderloins, covered, over medium heat or broil 4 in. from heat 18-22 minutes or until a thermometer reads 145�, turning occasionally.

    3. Let stand 5 minutes before slicing. Serve with salsa and lime wedges.
