Ingredients

Nonstick cooking spray

Tenderloin:

1 tablespoon hickory barbecue seasoning blend

2 pounds pork tenderloin, cleaned

2 cups prepared virgin Bloody Mary mix

1 1/2 cups peach nectar

1 teaspoon Worcestershire sauce

1/4 cup apple cider vinegar

3 tablespoons brown sugar

1 teaspoon granulated garlic

2 teaspoons hot sauce

Freshly cracked black pepper

2 1/2 cups chopped frozen peaches

Hash Browns:

3 tablespoons vegetable oil

2 tablespoons butter

4 cups sweet potatoes, peeled and shredded

1 to 2 cups bagged frozen onions and red bell pepper mixture, chopped

1/4 cup chopped fresh celery leaves

2 teaspoons kosher salt

Freshly ground black pepper

2 fresh peaches, sliced

2 tablespoons chopped parsley leaves

Directions

  1. Preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spray a large ovenproof skillet with nonstick cooking spray. Sprinkle the barbecue seasoning blend over the pork tenderloin. Quickly sear the meat on all sides over medium heat.
  2. Meanwhile, while meat is searing, start the hash browns by adding the vegetable oil and butter to another large skillet. Add the shredded sweet potatoes, onion and bell pepper blend, and celery leaves in a single layer. Cook over medium heat for 3 to 4 minutes without stirring. Stir in the salt and pepper, to taste, and continue to cook until potatoes are tender, about 10 to 12 minutes.
  3. Once the tenderloin has been seared, remove to a platter and to the same skillet whisk in the Bloody Mary mix, peach nectar, Worcestershire sauce, apple cider vinegar, brown sugar, garlic, hot sauce, cracked black pepper, and chopped peaches; simmer over medium heat for 8 to 10 minutes. Remove sauce from heat, place the seared pork in skillet and spoon sauce over top. Place the skillet in oven and cook until pork reaches an internal temperature of 155 degrees F on an instant-read thermometer. Remove meat from oven and allow to sit for a few minutes before slicing. To plate, arrange sweet potato hash browns and the sliced pork on individual dishes and top with some of the sauce. Garnish with fresh peach slices and a sprinkling of parsley.

I really enjoyed this recipe. The pork was perfectly cooked, very moist and tender, the sauce was delicious and a little spicy-sweet. I usually have to tweak most recipes to suit our tastes at home, but barely changed a thing with this recipe. I reduced salt in the hash browns to 1 1/2 t, and was glad I did- will probably only do 1 t next time. I also put the hash brown pan in the oven while the pork was finishing and felt this helped them brown better. I have some sweet potato yeast rolls and plan on making sandwiches from the left overs.
