We had this at a friend’s house, and it was wonderful.

2 pounds beef tenderloin
1 liter Dr Pepper (not diet)
1/2 cup soy sauce
3/4 cup lemon juice (about 3 lemons)
1 tablespoon black peppercorns
1 tablespoon coarse salt
3 cloves garlic, crushed

Combine all marinade ingredients in large Ziploc bag.

Add beef tenderloin

Marinade 5 hours or overnight

Heat grill to medium

Reserve marinade if you wish to make sauce (see below)

Add tenderloin, cook turning occasionally

Cook about 45 minutes, until meat registers 130 degrees

Transfer to board and rest before slicing

You can also heat the marinade to a boil and simmer until slightly reduced and serve as a sauce.

Recipes from Grandma

1 4 pound boneless pork loin roast
2 onions, finely chopped
1 tablespoon fresh thyme leaves
1/2 teaspoon allspice, ground
1/4 teaspoon nutmeg, ground
1/4 teaspoon cinnamon, ground

Trim any excess fat from the pork roast. Butterfly the roast by cutting horizontally through the center. The meat should lie flat. Place the pork in a flat dish.

Combine the remaining ingredients to make a paste. Spread the paste over the pork loin, cover, and marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours.

Prepare a fire on the grill. Cook the roast over medium coals for approximately 2 hours or until a meat thermometer reads 150 to 160 degrees.

Cut the pork loin in half lengthwise, and carve in thin slices.
