In a medium bowl, whisk together honey, soy sauce, olive oil, minced garlic, apple cider vinegar, paprika, salt, and ground black pepper to create the marinade.
Place the pork loin in a large resealable plastic bag or a shallow dish. Pour the marinade over the pork loin, ensuring it is fully coated.
Seal the bag or cover the dish with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or up to overnight for best results.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375-400°F). Lightly oil the grill grates to prevent sticking.
Remove the pork loin from the marinade, letting the excess marinade drip off. Reserve the marinade for basting.
Place the pork loin on the preheated grill. Close the lid and cook for about 20-25 minutes, turning every 5-7 minutes and basting with the reserved marinade.
Use a meat thermometer to check for doneness. The internal temperature should read 145°F when inserted into the thickest part of the pork loin.
Once cooked to proper temperature, remove the pork loin from the grill and let it rest for 5-10 minutes before slicing. This helps retain the juices.
Slice the pork loin into medallions, serve warm, and enjoy!
