Don't worry if the rain washes away your grilling plans. This pork tenderloin recipe easily transfers to cooking indoors. Sear the meat in a hot skillet, then roast quickly in a hot oven to cook the meat through. Pork tenderloins are small enough for fast cooking. Of course, this recipe works very well on the grill.
