Instructions
Bake tea biscuits according to package directions. Cool on a wire rack 20 minutes.
Preheat grill to 350 to 400 (medium-high) heat.
Remove silver skin from each tenderloin.
Sprinkle salt and pepper over pork; rub with olive oil. Grill pork, covered with grill lid, 10 to 12 minutes on each side or until a meat thermometer inserted into thickest portion registers 14
Remove from grill; cover with foil, and let stand 15 minutes.
Meanwhile, cut biscuits in half, and brush cut sides with melted butter. Arrange, cut sides up, on a baking sheet.
Bake at 350 for 8 to 10 minutes or until edges are golden.
Cut pork into 1/4-inch-thick slices (about 24 slices each).
Place pork on biscuits; top with desired amount of Cranberry-Pepper Jelly and watercress sprigs.
Recommended wine: Malbec, Pinot Noir, Sangiovese
Pork Tenderloin works really well with Malbec, Pinot Noir, and Sangiovese. Pinot noir's light body is great for lean cuts, medium bodied sangiovese complement meaty sauces, stews, and other multi-ingredient dishes, and full-bodied tannic malbec pairs with fatty cuts and barbecue. The Susana Balbo Nosotros Single Vineyard Nomade Malbec with a 4.7 out of 5 star rating seems like a good match. It costs about 109 dollars per bottle.
