SAUCE:

3 cups blueberries
1/2 cup honey
1/4 cup ketchup
1 medium jalapeño pepper, seeded and minced
1/4 cup chopped shallots
1 Tbs grated fresh ginger
2 tsp fresh lime juice
1/4 tsp dry mustard

MEAT:

1-pound pork tenderloin
Salt and freshly ground black pepper
1. Prepare sauce: Combine ingredients in a medium saucepan. Bring to a boil over medium heat; reduce heat and simmer until thickened, about 60 minutes. Divide sauce between 2 bowls; set aside.
2. Prepare meat: Preheat grill to medium heat. Season pork with salt and pepper. Sear, turning to cook on all sides, 10-15 minutes. Brush with half of the barbecue sauce, turning frequently, until pork is thoroughly glazed, about 10 minutes more (a meat thermometer should read about 150°F). Set aside and let rest for 5 minutes. Carve crosswise; serve with remaining barbecue sauce.
Servings: 4
