Paula Deen has done it again! These were wonderful!!! I took boneless pork tenderloins and after trimming the fat, I didn't need to cut them in half. (Last time I made them, I cut them in half but I don't think it will make much of a difference) I made the dipping sauce. It was very yummy. I also bought hot dog buns (and mustard) and ate them like that too. My family loved trying these "pigs on a stick" both ways. <br/>Note: I cooked them in the oven first, and boiled them the last few minutes. I don't think that the broiler was really necessary but I just wanted to give it a whirl. KEEPER!!!
