Grilled Pork Tenderloin

Pork tenderloin is one of the most loved main courses in our dinner rotation.  We have it at least every other week.  I will buy then in bulk when they are on sale and throw them in the freezer.  This is an easy grilled marinated version that is quick and flavorful.

Pork Tenderloin Ingredients

To make this you will need:

  • 1 – 2 lbs pork tenderloin

Marinade:

  • 1/4 cup canola oil
  • 1/4 cup apple cider
  • 1/4 cup dark brown sugar
  • 2 tablespoons Dijon Mustard
  • 1 large lime – juice only
  • 2 large garlic cloves, minced

Mix together the marinade first in a bowl.

Place the marinade mix in a bag and try to get rid of as much air as you can before you seal.  Place in the fridge for an hour or more.

Spray grate and grill at medium high until internal temperature reaches 145 degrees.  This took about 4 turns and 12 minutes for this 1.15 pounder on my grill.  If you don’t have a probed meat thermometer, they are totally worth it.  Just set the temperature and it will tell you when the meat is done.

We like to serve this with a side cabbage salad with poppyseed dressing and sweet cubed sweet potatoes, roasted in foil on the grill.  Enjoy!

On a side note, isn’t this a pretty view through a cabbage?
