Recipe Information
Ingredients
- 2 pieces pork tenderloin
- 0.25 cup soy sauce
- 0.25 cup olive oil
- 2 tablespoons honey
- 2 tablespoons apple cider vinegar
- 4 garlic cloves, minced
- 1 teaspoon ground black pepper
- 1 teaspoon paprika
- 0.5 teaspoon ground cumin
- 0.5 teaspoon dried oregano
- 0.5 cup barbecue sauce
Instructions
Trim any excess fat or silver skin from the pork tenderloins, and set aside.
In a medium bowl, whisk together soy sauce, olive oil, honey, apple cider vinegar, minced garlic, black pepper, paprika, cumin, and oregano to create the marinade.
Place the pork tenderloins in a large resealable plastic bag or shallow dish and pour the marinade over the meat. Seal the bag (or cover the dish) and refrigerate for at least 2 hours, or overnight for maximum flavor.
Preheat your grill to medium-high heat (about 375–400°F). Remove the pork tenderloins from the marinade, letting the excess marinade drain off. Discard the used marinade.
Place the pork tenderloins on the grill and cook for 18–20 minutes total, turning every 5 minutes. Use a meat thermometer to ensure the internal temperature reaches 145°F for medium-rare or 160°F for medium.
In the last 5 minutes of cooking, brush the barbecue sauce generously over the pork tenderloins, turning them carefully to prevent burning.
Remove the tenderloins from the grill and allow them to rest for 5 minutes to redistribute the juices.
Slice the pork tenderloins into medallions and serve immediately, with extra barbecue sauce on the side if desired.
