The burgundy Pork really won by a landslide! Not to talk myself up or anything, but it definitely did turn out very tasty. The apple raspberry crumble took a small lead in the beginning and held it the whole way through. Although personally I would have rated it as my least favorite of the choices, I am really glad that it was chosen because it turned out even better than the pork and I will definitely make it again! Without further ado, here are your recipes and the accompanying photos! Thank you thank you again so very much! We should definitely do this again next month!
Burgundy Pork
Ingredients:
2-2.5 lbs Pork Tenderloin (mine was 2.6)
Seasoning (Hickory Balsalmic Rub, Crushed Rosemary, Sea Salt, Garlic Salt)
2 Celery Stalks Sliced
2 1/2 Cups Red Wine
1 pkg Au Jus (or whichever brown gravy you prefer)
Directions:
Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Place pork in a 9 X 13 baking dish and sprinkle with the seasoning. Add the celery and pour the wine into the dish. Bake for 45 minutes. Remove the meat from the dish and put the dish onto the stove over a burner. Add the Au Jus and simmer for about 5-10 minutes to thicken. Serve by slicing the meat and covering with the sauce.
