Marinated Grilled Pork Tenderloin

I put the hubby to work at the grill this weekend. He did an excellent job cooking pork tenderloins.




It was so very yummy!



I found this recipe on another cooking/recipe blog that I frequent, http://mytastytreasures.blogspot.com/, written by a naughty girl named Donna. You'll see what I mean if you visit her blog. And you should visit her blog, great recipes and great reading entertainment.

MARINATED GRILLED PORK TENDERLOIN
1/4 cup soy sauce
1/4 cup packed brown sugar
2 tablespoons sherry
1 1/2 teaspoons dried minced onion
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
2 tablespoons olive oil
1 pinch garlic powder
2 (3/4 pound) pork tenderloins

Place first 7 ingredients in a small bowl and whisk together. Place pork in a re-sealable gallon size plastic bag. Pour in the marinade, seal the bag and squeeze a bit to coat the pork. Refrigerate for 6 to 24 hours.

Pre-heat the grill to high heat. Lightly oil the grate. Place tenderloins on grill and discard marinade. Cook for 15 to 20 minutes to desired degree of doneness. Remove from grill and let rest for a couple of minutes. Slice into medallions to serve.

Yield: 4 to 5 servings
