I have been making this marinade for years now. It not only goes great with pork, but with beef and chicken as well and even salmon. Today is a perfect day for a bbq because of the beautiful weather we are having here in New York. I just love anything on the grill as it makes for less cleanup in the kitchen.
Asian BBQ Pork Tenderloin
Serves 4-5
Ingredients
1/2 cup light soy sauce
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tbsp. garlic powder
1/4 tsp. ground ginger
1 tbsp. rice vinegar
2 tsp. dark sesame oil
2 tbsp. honey
2-3 lb. boneless pork tenderloin
Directions
In a bowl mix the first 7 ingredients. Place the pork in a ziploc bag and pour the marinade over it. Marinate in the refrigerator for at least 4 hours, turning bag occasionally.
Preheat grill to high. Grill meat on high for 5 minutes on each side. Lower the heat to medium-low and cook for about 45 minutes or until no longer pink inside. Basting with reserve marinade a few times throughout the cooking process. After the meat is done, remove from grill, cover it with tin foil and let it rest for about 10 minutes before slicing.
If you are going to use the reserved marinade with the cooked meat, make sure to boil it for at least 15 minutes to get rid of any bacteria.

We love pork tenderloin. This marinade has the perfect combo of ingredients – yum!
