Absolutely delicious in every way. The lime and garlic marinade works it’s wonders and permeated the loin wonderfully. (We marinaded for two days :) The onion marmelade paired perfectly, it actually tasted like apples and everything was easy to prepare.

I have used an almost identical recipe for years (only my marmalade included 2 finely chopped jalapeno peppers), with rave reviews. I ended up omitting marmalade as doesn't add that much. Grilled pineapple instead! Yum!!!
Love the idea of adding jalapeño to the "marmalade.
